It was lost in the cold war and has been controlled by the eastern bloc ever since. The IRGC dictatorship, which is responsible for more Iranian civillian casualties than this pointless war is, are empowered solely by military support from China and Russia. All of their guns and munitions come from there.

I actually don't like the Shah faction, I made comments at the time Trump announced his support for them that it was a stupid fucking idea; which turned out to be true.
