The Shah of Iran, Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, gained power in 1941 through a coup d'etat against the democratically elected government of Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddeq. The Shah was then proclaimed by the British-controlled Iranian parliament as the new ruler. This coup was orchestrated by the British and American governments, who feared Mosaddeqs attempts to nationalize the Iranian oil industry. The Shah then ruled as a monarch until he was overthrown in 1979 during the Iranian Revolution.
The Shah solidified his power in a few key ways. These included:
- Centralizing the government and creating a one-party system
- Instituting a secret police force to suppress any form of dissent or opposition
- Using the military to intimidate the population and control key infrastructure
- Receiving support from the United States and other Western nations
The Shahs oppressive rule ultimately led to his overthrow. The Iranian Revolution saw the Iranian people rise up in protest against the Shahs authoritarian rule and the Western interference in their affairs.

They hang everyone anywhere silly. (:
In medevial times hanging was not you to kill. It was a part of the ritual of being hung, drawn and quartered. The noose was used to choke but not to kill. Hanging became a common means to execute in the US and was improved so that the prisoner's neck was broken rather than the longer process of strangulation. It was continued in use by vigilantes.

Branch of Islam found primarily in Iraq and Iran?
Iran has shia Islam as the state religion and about 96% of Iranians are actually shiites.
Iraq is a more difficult situation, Iraq consists of three major religious groups, Shiite muslims, Sunnite muslims and Kurds.
Kurds live in the North-west of the country, shiites live in the east and north-east of the country (along the border with Iran), and sunnites are found in the rest of the country.
Kurds don't have a main religion. some are shiites, some are sunnites. The majority of kurds are sunnites though.
the overall religion of Iraq consists of 65% Shiites and 35% sunnites.
this has created a lot of difficulty for Iraqi politics. the President is a sunnite and the prime minister is a shiite. it took more than 100 days for the winning parties to form a coalition partially because of the religious differences.

Why is the USA an enemy of Iran?
Partially it is due to religious views in Iran. In their view the American lifestyle goes against Islamic law, thus making us sinful. Additionally, the U.S. is allied with Israel a primarily Jewish-controlled country that was set up largely in place of the mostly Islamic-controlled Palestine. Iran and other Islamic nations resent the U.S. support of Jewish control over what Christians Jews, and Muslims alike regard as the Holy Land. However, part of it has to do with the direct relation in history history of the U.S. with Iran. In 1953 a joint operation of U.S. and British intelligence agencies, headed by Kermit Roosevelt of the CIA, incited a coup that overthrew the popular and democratically elected Mohammad Mosaddegh after he declared plans to nationalize oil fields owned by British oil companies. In his place they installed Mohammad Reza Pahlavi, popularly known as the Shah. He was a brutal dictator and his rule was supported by the U.S. until his overthrow in 1979. After his overthrow he was taken into the U.S. for medical treatment, which sparked much resentment among the Iranians, and some in Iran feared the U.S. would try to reinstall him. This history has brought about a strong dislike and distrust for the U.S. in that country.

What lesson could you learn from the Greek victory over the Persians?
Greece was strongest when city-states banded together.
You can't. As a top secret operation, the specific details of the mission, especially the names of personnel will remain classified still. So, unless you have a militarily justifiable need to know, you cannot get that list.
To protect field operatives in Special Operations, the names of personnel are a closely guarded secret.
