There is conflicting info about who where allied with whom; it could of just have been that the Shah committed the same mistake as the Israelis a few years later, in supporting Hamas to dislodge the influence of the SU aligned Arafat, in the Shah's case, the reactionary Islamists against the communists. Well at least initially, then both the communists and the Islamists where proportional threats to his regime.
