I am unsure... looking at pictures of iran in 1970 and they look quite happy being progressive back then. I could easily believe that people want to get back to to a similar lifestyle.

also see the movies : "my teheran for sale" and "Persepolis"

as much as I hate USA foreign policy, it is also possible that Iranians want peace and freedom outside of foreign interests.

not everything is black and white.
