The Ancient Kushan Empire or how the Colonial Powers learned how to split, disintegrate and colonize Iran
What follows is my (slightly edited) conversation with a shrewd and very knowledgeable young Iranian of the Diaspora, Mr. Mustafa Aryaei; he first highlighted an early comment of mine about the true nature of the colonial evildoing, which is not military, political and economic but mainly educational, academic and intellectual. Subsequently, he briefly commented on it. We then had an interesting conversation, exchanging many ideas and considerations on his very informative page that I advise you to visit: https://vk.com/id731943065 (مصطفی آریایی) Mustafa Aryaei
Points highlighted by Mustafa Aryaei
The painful truth about Western hegemonic powers, most notably the English and French colonizers, as analyzed per Prof. Shamsaddin Megalommatis Prof. Megalommatis in response to my comment, in which he masterly explained the following thereon:
"My dear,
I first studied these issues in Africa and only later in Asia. There, I realized that Anglo-French colonialism is not a matter of military occupation, political dependency, and economic exploitation, but mainly a vast project of mental-intellectual-spiritual-educational-academic-cultural-behavioral subordination, alteration and transformation of the colonized populations into failed copies of their colonial masters, whom the colonized nations have only the chance to imitate in a counter-productive manner.
Due to this, natural borders are changed, the local and regional geography is totally distorted, the indigenous historical past gravely falsified in order to be duly adjusted to the preconceived (by the racist Western academics) "History of the World", and finally a fake structure replaces the historical reality that pre-existed before the colonial arrival.
In Africa, nothing justifies the multiple divisions of N-NW Africa: in fact, Libya, Chad, Niger, Tunisia, Algeria, Mali, Morocco and Mauritania form an entire Berber Hamitic mega-nation with the plurality of their tribes and dialects.
The French deliberately 'Arabized' those lands in order to fuel discord and enmity, divisions and lack of identity. Same with Afghanistan! English Orientalists read about the state of Kushan, noticed that it weakened Arsacid Iran and that the rising Sassanid Empire absorbed the lands of Kushan, and they wanted to reproduce it. For them, 'reading History' means only 'learning as to how to cause bloodshed and wars'."
Divide and rule it is! Thank you for your spot-on analysis, my well-learned friend!

Shamsaddin, wow, that’s still a huge empire. So, the British empire wanted to create a rift (buffer) and to subdue or rob the indigenous people from their actual identity. Uti possidetis is a colonial concept rather than a Roman law concept, I would argue.
Shamsaddin Megalommatis replied to مصطفی
مصطفی, Yes, for some time, the Kushan empire expanded greatly. The English knew that they could not create a fake kingdom of this size due to the existence of
- the Mughal Empire (that they started eroding and corrupting since Day 1 of their presence there),
- the Safavid (and later Afshar) Empire of Iran (that they denigrated to just 'Persia', i.e. Fars), and
- the khanates of Central Asia.
So, they gathered several disparate, barbarian, and ignorant pseudo-Muslim tribes, promised their tribal leaders with a big empire if they settled the differences among themselves and if they cooperated with the treacherous and malignant East India Company. Thus, they gradually helped them form the ominous Durrani state, a bogus-empire that they manned with 2-3 Orientalists who taught those bastards (this is said literally) as to how to become 'kings'!
مصطفی آریایی•Author replied to Shamsaddin
Shamsaddin, oh yes, the infamous Ahmad Shah Abdali, aka as the errand boy of King Nader Afshar. Very interesting that you mentioned the Durrani failed state - up until now! And the afghanis are brainwashed with their “glorious history” which is, by all measurements, too romanticized, right Professor?
Shamsaddin Megalommatis replied to مصطفی
مصطفی, My dear, for each and every evildoing that they perform, for each and every abomination that they come up with, the heinous English and French colonials customarily provide with what is now called "customer support and services". This involves fallacious historiography, adaptation of the local history to the interests of the puppet rulers that they install here and there, and so on, and so on. Western Orientalism is not the expression or the result of a genuine interest for exploration or a quest for truth. It is a mass production of evil schemes and bloodshed causing distortions; they abhorrently hate the topics that they study.
Do you believe that the father of the last shah of Iran knew the word "Pahlavi"?? His false name was Reza shah Pahlavi. His true name was Reza Abbas-Ali Khan. His father was a soldier who died before Reza was one year old. Reza's mother was an Ayromlu Turkmen refugee from Georgia. An English Orientalist brainwashed them about "Pahlavi" which is the name of an ancient writing in use during the Arsacid-Sassanid times. Not one man in Iran knew the term "Pahlavi" during the last decades of Qajar Iran.
مصطفی آریایی•Author replied to Shamsaddin
Shamsaddin, and yet: they called themselves the “Pahlavi dynasty” but one only has to look at the so-called Iranian “crown prince” to realize that they, indeed, did not knew the word “Pahlavi”!
Shamsaddin Megalommatis replied to مصطفی
مصطفی, Correct! For me, the last Iranian imperial rulers are the Qajar dynasty. The English interfered during WW I and they deposed it soon afterwards. Under the so-called Pahlavi family, Iran was not an empire but a kingdom. But precisely because Iran "is" an Empire, Iran cannot function as a kingdom.
With the so-called Pahlavi dynasty, the English reduced Iran to "Persia" (Fars), which was what the Western criminals wanted to do already in the early Safavid days! In parallel, the English produced the "counterbalancing power", namely the totally un-Iranian, un-Islamic doctrine of Wilayat al Faqih, which is a so fake construct that I believe that all the dead of the great Safavid mystics must have turned in their graves at the proclamation of Khomeini's ridiculous thesis.
Without even feeling it, Ayatollah Khomeini served the Anglo-French colonial project of Islamic radicalization in a manner similar to what "political islam" proved to be among Sunnis. Then, truly ungoverned, the Iranian nation was driven to a fake dilemma between a shah, who was not a Shah, and an imam, who was incapable to follow the line of Ja'far as Sadiq.
مصطفی آریایی•Author replied to Shamsaddin
Shamsaddin, what I know dear Professor, is that the removal of the Shah effectively backfired terribly for the West. We all know for a fact that Ayatollah Khomeini descended on Iranian soil by means of an Air France plane. They thought that it was a well-orchestrated coup in order to get rid of the leftist “Tudeh” movement in Iran. As for the latter, the Islamic republic was very effective since it killed many many leftist/communist Iranian intellectuals.
Shamsaddin Megalommatis replied to مصطفی
مصطفی, I don't think that the removal of the Shah "backfired" for the West. This is what Western diplomats and academics, mass media and governments want to show to the public in order to spread confusion and misunderstanding. Yes, you are right that all Iranian leftists, socialists and communists were soon eliminated, and Bani Sadr escaped disguised as a chador-wearing woman, but this was only the early stage of the new regime.
But the Islamists were duly manipulated and fully controlled by the English, French and American secret services. Even the occupation of the US Embassy in Tehran was something that pleased the Western establishments. Do not view the West as a one, single and unitary establishment!
They are divided into several groups of power since the Jesuits, the Freemasons and the Zionists have split into sub-groups. Taking US diplomats as hostages for so many days was an event that contributed to the election of Ronald Reagan and the defeat of (the at keast suspicious for the Zionists) Jimmy Carter. The so-called Islamic (?? !!) Republic of Iran was greatly used for this development to happen. During the last 45 years, the Islamic regime has been effectively used by different Western groups of power; it still is.
As a historian, I have to admit that, although greatly ignorant of the colonial tricks used by the English in order to make of his father a 'king', the last shah had gradually acquired experience and perspicacity in the world affairs. So, I believe that, after some time, he started realizing that he was being used by the Western powers, and this caused an internal, personal revolt in him.
He started therefore identifying clearly the national Iranian interests within the context of the worldwide colonial involvement and interference, and because of this, he started taking some distance from the stupid choices that the Western gangsters had prescribed for him. As soon as the criminal ruling class of the Western countries understood this, his days were numbered.
