The neocons sure seem to be itching for a fight in Iran (and confused as to how best to get us there...) Meanwhile, remember when the neocons in the Pentagon and Iranian spy Ahmad Chalabi cooked up a plan to bring regime change to Iran, perhaps including re-installing the son of the Shah? Well young Mr. Pahlavi, who has strong ties to the neocon/likud axis of war is still out there, weighing in on the green revolution (of which he appears to have no part,) causing neocons to drool, and perhaps dreaming of a return to the Peacock Throne. ... Said the "crown prince" on June 16th:
Asked if he aspired to return to Iran as shah and restore the monarchy, Pahlavi said it would be premature to answer. "The only thing that I'm concerned with -- which is my agenda, my political agenda -- is to end up with a secular parliamentary, democratic system," Pahlavi said. Such a system could take the form of a parliamentary monarchy such as in Sweden or Japan, he said. "I'm not fighting for any job right now. This is not about me," Pahlavi added. Aw, shucks.Labels: Iran, Iran's green revolution, neocons |
