>>2124669
Now I'm not defending the Revolutionary Guard but SAVAK was literally Gestapo or Stasi tier.

yeah, what a shithole

N-no, they are theocratic warmongers and a menace to world peace! Remeber that time they invaded iraq and kwai-something.
>>2124860
>99.4% Islamic
No country this uniform can be cultural, liberally democratic or truly modern.
>>2124860
>functioning democracy
They have mostly free elections, if you disregard the fact that an unelected body decides who is eligible to vote. But all the real power lies with the supreme leader and guardian council which are completely unelected. Iran is far from democratic.
>most modern country in ME
By what measure? Regardless I think Israel and Turkey would argue otherwise.
>cultural powerhouse
definitely true, but they were a cultural powerhouse long before islam.

>an unelected body decides who is eligible to vote
meant to say eligible to run for office, they make sure the people never get the chance to vote the wrong way

Ended the warmongering Shahanshahs?
Destroyed the Satrapal lords and their feudal infighting?
Was pretty ok until the Turkics & Steppenigs ruled the place.

This.
Westerners are blinded by the propaganda they see on the media.
