I'm so sick of this crap. The history of Iran is far more complex than a photo of a woman 'showing her legs'. (I'm Iranian, I lived there until late '78, I went back often after the war, once staying for almost a yr, I wrote MSc dissertation on causes of the revolution & outcome)
1/ With Iran in the news, I'm going to do a brief educational thread on their history since the 1979 "Revolution" where they moved from a flawed monarchy with democratic principles to a theocracy under Ayatollah Khomeini. Here's a picture of life in Iran before the revolution.…
