Before the Islamic Republic, the US backed Shah was not an elected leader, nor was he friendly to freedom. The U.S. spurred the overthrow of the legitimately elected leader in the mid fifties and placed the Shah in power. The Islamic Republic is awful but don’t pretend “everyday” Iranians were free during the Shah’s reign
