‘Never been this close’: Reza Pahlavi’s daughter, exiled princess Noor says US military deployed near Iran gives her hope

'Never been this close': Reza Pahlavi's daughter, exiled princess Noor says US military deployed near Iran gives her hope

Exiled Iranian princess Noor Pahlavi who lives in Los Angeles said Iran has never been this close to a regime change and also the regime has never been this weak. In an interview with the California Post, Noor said the US military mobilization in the region gives her hope. “It’s literally a government waging war on its own citizens. It’s just incredibly painful to watch, to hear about. And it’s hard for people here to see and hear about. But it’s our responsibility not to look away.”“It’s never been this close, and the regime has never been this weak,” she said. ”The need for regime change can’t be stressed enough. A reformist won’t do it. And, you know, they’re [the Iranian people] being extremely clear. They’re dying for something specific. And we need to listen to them.””The people really listened when the president told them that help was on the way and that they should continue taking to the streets. They’ve named streets after him. They’re holding up signs with his face on them. They’re begging him to come in and help them because they’re fighting this government empty-handed.””It gives me hope to see the amount of US military that has been deployed to the region. Many Iranians inside have their heads to the sky. They’re just waiting and praying and trying to survive until help comes.”

Who is Noor Pahlavi?

Noor Pahlavi is an Iranian-American royal and the eldest daughter of Reza Pahlavi, the exiled Crown Prince of Iran, and also the granddaughter of Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, the last Shah of Iran. She was born in exile in the US. The US military planning on a possible Iran strike has reached an advanced stage, two US officials confirmed to Reuters. Targeting Individuals as part of the attack and pushing for regime change are also on the table if ordered by President Donald Trump.
