Crown prince Raza, the Shah's son, claims the young people in Iran,

Yeah, but the problem with guys who have vested interests is that they tend
to drink their own bathwater.
Isn't this the son of the same guy who never saw it coming?
Like father, like son?
I was an instructor at NAS Corpus when the Iranian revolution took
place. You could tell who was on what side becaus the Shah's guys
wore name tags that said "IIN" (Iranian Imperial Navy) and the other
guys wore tags that said "INN" (Iranian National Navy). The IIN guys
seemed to outnumber the INN guys, but not by much.
Maybe among the more Western oriented youth there is a desire to
replace the Mullahs, but I wonder how deep it runs.
