Reza Pahlavi congratulated the U-21 volleyball team.
Crickets from the “this is IR’s team” crowd.

"This is a totalitarian system whose presence people feel in their blood and in their flesh on a daily basis. And it’s one that does not grant freedoms of any kind, or accommodate people’s demands in any way. What is increasingly clear is that there is clear demand for change in the regime. What the people want is regime change, and no return to the past. There is a very real possibility of regime change." - Nasrin SotoudehComment

Big respect to the guy. He loves Iran and knows what his energy should be used towards.Originally posted by taremiscores View Post
Exactly.
Instead of picking on athletes, regardless of their beliefs, he spends his time working against systematic issues - not bullshit social media fights.
People don't know this but Reza Pahlavi for years would always send a huge bouquet of flowers to TM after any important match. Just to say thank you, regardless of the resutls.
In Doha in 1993 during the World Cup Qualifiers, Reza Pahlavi sent a bouquet and Ali Parvin accepted the bouquet and said "alahazrat roo cheshmemoon" (allegedly).Parvin was banned from football in Iran for 3-4 years after that. I know it doesn't sound like Parvin, but politically he wasn't a big revolutionary guy. He had to lobby with Rafsanjani's crew to get the ban overturned.
My point being, Reza Pahlavi isn't the kind of guy who would go to a TM game to swear at players and boo the team.
Unfortunately we seem to have a small but very loud and organized crew of bums who think that political activism should be going around harassing our national teams.
I was speaking with an acquaintance a few days ago who comes from a very well known family (pre-revolution). He has literally had relatives executed in IR prisons, but he says the whole Qatar ordeal was such a horror for him because in addition to getting alot of hassle from Qatari security, he had to deal with "anti-IR" people (mostly Alinejad types) who were also bothering pro-Iran fans.
Anyways, I think it's becoming more clear to our more reasonable compatriots, so hopefully we don't have this issues (and regime) in 2026.
