Iranian here, the government here spends most of our country’s money on hezbollah and other proxy groups, fracturing it is simply impossible.

Why does it seem like Iran is a very controlling country? Like I always wanted to visit but when they started arresting american’s and such for being spies, gave me a second thought? How come every protest they put down by force? Was there any mutual respect once the Shah ended his reign? How does one justify a so called “terrorist” (I am an American so please forgive) getting so much money? Is it like the US where we have bases and such all over the world, and Iran’s are just centralized in a couple areas? How come Iran was willing to help US after 911 but pretty much went back to wanting to kill all of us? I don’t hold anything against Iranians btw so if my questions seem to have a slant toward them I don’t mean for them to. Thanks for answering ahead of time. Can I ask more?

It seems they are controlling because they are, they don’t mind murdering a million people if they don’t lose their power and please don’t visit iran ever until theres another revolution, there was some respect towards the shah when he ended his reign because he didn’t do that violent of a crackdown but the islamic revolutionaries absolutely vandalized the country and hated the shah, we don’t justify when they get money, here inside iran we were pissed when the MoU was signed and that it gives money and lifts some sanctions, after 911 they just did that for a PR move to hide themselves being islamist extremists too, yeah you can ask more and i will answer if i have time.
