Elections are made and the liberal party member wins, the shah, however, creates a moderating power so that he can still continue to control the country's new democratic politics, traditional shiites still have political influence. Iran is still being modernized and begins to have advantages in the war against Iraq, yet it is still defeated in attempting to take the shiite holy cities in Iraq, which the shah wishes to take, yet another military operation must be carried out.

Iraq: Saddam begins to win again in the war against Iran, but his victories are no more than resistance to the iranian attacks, but more attacks are made. Saddam says he will stop bombing kurdish villages only if they surrender completely, something they have not done yet.
