"If people are starving, let them starve!" — The shocking reality of Ahmad Shah Qajar during Iran's deadly famine.
While ordinary citizens were dying of hunger in the streets, Ahmad Shah hoarded his personal grain reserves, refusing to distribute them unless bought at extortionate prices. Compare this self-serving apathy to Reza Shah, who ruthlessly clamped down on hoarders to feed the nation and worked tirelessly to pull Iran out of absolute ruins.
True leadership and patriotism are defined during national crises, not through empty titles.
