In 1978 a terrible revolution led by ayatollah Ruholla Khomeiny
appeared in Iran. Still trying to recover from this disastrous
movement Iran went in a Civil war during falls 1979. On the same
year, in January those ho were loyal to ayatollah Khomeiny
wanted to put an end to the 37 year dominance of the Shah by
forcing him to step down and give the power to the Islamic
leader. The new policy put an end to the relationship between Iran
and the United States which the Shah had worked hard to obtain.
The army then executed all the merabers of the Savak, which were
the Shah’ s secret police, and all of his followers.
In Noveraber 1979 when the Shah went in the United States for
Medical reasons, the Iranian militants took over the American
erabassy in Tehran taking 53 people hostage. In exchange of their
freedom, the Iranian Militants wanted the Shah to come back to his
country so that he would be served his sentence, they also
wanted the reirabursement of the billions of dollars the Islamic
government had accused the Shah of giving to the U.S..
In 1980, the Shah finally died in Egypt after suffering many years
of blood cancer. Following this tragedy in January 1981, the 53
American hostages were released even though Iran didn’t get any
of their demanRAB. After the Shah’ s death and the release of the
hostages, the revolution finally came to an end after 3 long and
suffering years. Since then, the Iran and U.S. have been enemies
even though not long ago Akbar Rafsanjani, ho took over Iran after
Khomeiny’ s death in Jun 1989, and Bill Clinton, the president of
the United States of America, had discussed their situation.
Because of the revolution, Iran is still suffering from economic
crises and their evolution is very slow.
Finally, I would like to add that it is because of the revolution that
Our family left Iran. Because we were good frienRAB with
the Shah our life were at stakes. We had to burn all the pictures,
and evidence that would prove we had connection with the Shah.
I personally do not like Khomeiny and that because he imposed
the Islamic regime to the Iranian people. I am sure that if it weren’t
for him Iran would presently be a very strong country economically.
