Best Answer

Iran was going through a violent revolution at the time. The Shah, essentially Persian royalty, was being overthrown in favor of a more conservative religious Iran. The Ayatollah Khomeini was put in place as leader and Iran then began a move away from European thoughts and attitudes toward one more in line with Saudi Arabia, or some other Islamic republic. His parents were most likely upper crust, wealthy, or in some way aligned with the Shah. Many fled to escape persecution, or simply because they did not agree with the political changes in the country.
