Historical comparison: How past uprisings in Iran differ from today.

Iran’s regime is facing one of the most widespread anti-government movements in decades, as fiery demonstrations continue to spread nationwide. 

Exiled Crown Prince Reza Pahlavi, whose father was the last shah of Iran leading up to the 1979 revolution, said during an appearance on "Hannity" that the country has "never seen an opportunity" like this to overthrow the government.

"Over a hundred cities and millions of people on the street chanting ‘Death to the dictator,’" Pahlavi said Tuesday. 

Video circulating online shows large demonstrations across Iran, with thousands taking to the streets. Protesters are upset over the country’s worsening economic conditions as the value of Iran’s currency continues to plummet.

"The regime is crumbling and is very close to collapsing," he said.

He said the movement is "unprecedented" and differs from past efforts, pointing to participation from Iran’s powerful merchant class. 

In Tehran, video showed business owners shutting their shops in the Grand Bazaar and facing off with security forces in riot gear.

The Associated Press, citing Iran’s state-run IRNA news agency, reported that an Iranian general called Trump’s remarks a "threat" and warned the country would respond.

Pahlavi noted that he is prepared to return to Iran if the regime falls, adding that his goal would be to "bring about a peaceful end by means of a national referendum and a constitutional assembly."
