The 35th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution was commemorated in a ceremony in Iran's Embassy in Berlin. Numerous German industrialists and businessmen, scholars and media representatives, senior officials and foreign ambassadors took part in the commemoration ceremony on Tuesday. The ceremony included also the performance of the Iranian school choir as well as a display of precious Persian handicrafts and carpets. On Tuesday morning, Iranian people from all walks of life took to the streets all over the country to celebrate the 35th anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution in a show of continued support for their revolutionary causes and the Islamic establishment. Over 1,500 domestic and 194 foreign reporters covered the Bahman 22 (February 11) rallies. In Tehran, demonstrators congregated at the Azadi Square, Tehran's main square and the site of major national rallies over the past three decades. Led by the Founder of the Revolution, Imam Khomeini, Iranians confronted the forces of US-proxy Mohammad-Reza Pahlavi in late 1977 to end dictatorship rule in the country. By December 1978, millions of Iranians would take to the streets in protest against the policies of the Shah on a regular basis. Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini returned from exile to Iran to be received by cheering crowds after the departure of the Shah in mid-January 1979. Two weeks later, the country saw the Islamic Revolution. The final collapse of the Shah's regime came on February 11, 1979, when the military renounced its loyalty to the Shah and joined the revolutionary forces. On this day 35 years ago, people took to the streets to celebrate the collapse of the Pahlavi Dynasty and the emergence of the new era. On April 1, 1979, Iranians cast their ballots in a national referendum. An astonishing 98.2 percent of the votes endorsed the establishment of an Islamic Republic.
