One of our laws is that communism is not allowed. It's banned.  So you can't do it.  --The Shah of Iran

I had no idea how long the Shah ruled Iran, from 1941-1979:

Mohammad Reza Pahlavi ^[a] (26 October 1919 – 27 July 1980) was the last Shah of Iran from 1941 to 1979. He succeeded his father Reza Shah and ruled the Imperial State of Iran until he was overthrown in the Islamic Revolution led by Ruhollah Khomeini, which abolished the Iranian monarchy to establish the Islamic Republic of Iran. In 1967, he took the title Shahanshah (lit. 'King of Kings'),^[1] and held several others, including Aryamehr (lit. 'Light of the Aryans') and Bozorg Arteshtaran (lit. 'Grand Army Commander'). He was the second and last ruling monarch of the Pahlavi dynasty.

It is funny how we've always heard of the "severe repression" under the rule of the Shah.  But it was only the severe repression by the Shah of the communists.  

Under the rule of Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, the Shah of Iran, communism faced severe repression. The regime's anti-communist stance was a significant aspect of its governance.

Who Are the Enemies Bankrolling the Vaccine Program that Could Decimate the US Population?

This excellent video that should clarify for you who the enemy is that we're dealing with today and who is pushing the vaccines on a predominantly Christian nation.  Miss this at your peril.  Find the time to watch it, let it sear on your mind so that you shall have a framework from which to know the past and understand the current enemy.  The Bolsheviks hated the Christians.  Many of today's orthodox and secular Jews have inherited contempt for Christians, for the American goy.  This is only Part I.  Make the effort and schedule some time to watch it and the in the series.  Remember that all of the Federal Reserve Chairmen since the 1980s have been Jewish: Paul Volker, Alan Greenspan, Ben Bernanke, and Janet Yellen.  Do you think George Soros, a Jew, has made plans to oversee the mass slaughter of Americans as he finances open immigration into this country?

This next video does an excellent job of illustrating how the Bolsheviks' heirs, the indirect action committee of the Frankfurt School with Adorno, et al, worked to portray all of white culture as pathological while portraying Jewish families as the most acceptable forms of group identity.  

29:44  Towards the end of 1922, the Communist International, the Comintern, began to consider how they would take over Europe in the most effective way.  At Lenin’s initial, a meeting was organized at the Marx/Engels Institute in Moscow.  The aim of the meeting was to start the Marxist Cultural Revolution.  Among those present at the meeting was Georg Lukacs, a Jewish Hungarian aristocrat and the son of a banker.  In the summer of 1924, Lukacs moved to Germany.  Here he held the first meeting of a group of communist-oriented intellectuals.  This gathering was to be the foundation of the Frankfurt School.  The institute had been officially founded and funded by Felix Jose Weil, called the Institute for Social Research.  Later it would be known as the Frankfurt School.  These new Marxists, under the direction of Max Horkheimer, believed that Europeans were too attached to tradition, race, nation, family, and faith to be able to accept communism.  Antonio Gramsci, while in prison, described that Marxism and communism could only fourish only after a long march through the cultural institutions [of the west].  Only then after they had corrupted all western values and made life impossible for us, could they impose the dictatorship of the proletariat.  This was also what the Fabian Socialists [the British socialist organization] did to weaken the countries that slowly implemented international communism.  The mantra would now be "Change and destroy western culture before communism would be accepted."  Georg Lukacs believed that for a new communist culture to emerge, the existing European culture had to be destroyed.  There is no other way to get control of a society with strong moral values than to weaken those values."  He said

I saw the revolutionary destruction of society as the one and only solution to the cultural contradictions of the epoch . . . .  Such a worldwide overturning of values cannot take place without the annihilation of the old values and the creation of new ones by the revolutionaries.  –Georg Lukacs 

31:55 

We must organize the intellectuals and use them TO MAKE WESTERN CIVILIZATION STINK.  Only then, after they have CORRUPTED ALL ITS VALUES AND MADE LIFE IMPOSSIBLE, can we impose the dictatorship of the proletariat.    --Willi Munzenberg 

In his 1915 book, The Spirit of 1914: Militarism, Myth, and Mobilization, Nahum Goldman, top-level international Zionist and President of the World Jewish Congress, describes the Zionist's method for destruction of western civilization, which is required for transition into a new world order.  

The historical mission of our world revolution is to rearrange a new culture of humanity to replace the previous social system. This conversion and reorganization of global society requires two essential steps: firstly, the destruction of the old established order; secondly, design and imposition of the new order.  The first stage requires elimination of all frontier borders, nationhood and culture, public policy, ethical barriers and social definitions, only then can the destroyed old system elements be replaced by the imposed system elements of our new world order.  

The first tasm of our world revolution is destruction.  All social strata and social formations created by traditional society must be annhilated, individual men and women must be uprooted from their ancestral environment, torn out of their native environments, no tradition of any type shall be permitted to remain as sacred, traditional social norms must only be viewed as a disease to be eradicated, the ruling dictum of the new order is; nothing is good so everything must be criticized and abolished, everything that was must be gone. 

Wanting to learn more about the role that Jews played in the 20th century and about Zionism to understand their conflict, I searched Lew Rockwell for some archived articles.
