But the Prince does not see a contradiction in his wish to return to serve as a linchpin of a democratic system.
A monarchy, he said, can be a force for stability
"Crown Prince"? "Iranian throne"? What a shame that Reza Pahlavi is squandering his name and his history to lobby for a return to power. Tsk tsk.
The age of kings is over Reza. Does anyone still believe in the divinity of kings? By what right is a king a king?
This man wants the people of Iran to struggle and likely bleed and die for freedom from the clerics so that he can go back and become the king of Iran? Really!?!
I would love to hear from Iranians or anyone who lives in a monarchy and loves their monarch. Please help me understand why you would want to let a regular human being live in the lap of luxury on the people's dime. Why?
Full Disclosure - I come from a long line of regular people, so yes, I do have a bias...
