This is Your Nation Off Islam

Decided to look up what Iran looked like before the Islamic Revolution and it looks exactly like any other Western country. It looked just like America or Britain. How the hell did this revolution ever take flight and throw the entire structure of the country back into the medieval dark ages?

Is this what Mohammad bin Salman hopes to turn Saudi Arabia into with the whole Vision 2030 thing?

I wonder how it would have been today without the religious zealots. Maybe it would be fully developed.

How come a fully developed economic center of the Middle East sound like a dream come true?

Why do Americans make these kinds of threads? Are there really that ignorant about their own history? It's always the same structure. Some mutt is puzzled by the contemporary circumstances of a certain country or region while being painfully ignorant about the simple fact that their own meddling in other country's affaires was ultimately responsible. I swear we are going to see thread about Iraq very soon.

We only improve other countries by bringing democracy and freedom and human rights. We don't fuck up good countries.

Bringing democracy by toppling the democratically elected government of Iran and supporting the installation of an autocratic monarchy, sure.

Because rich and educated people secularize.
