Current study based on discursive psychology and according to a linguistic approach tries to find some main aspect of xenophobia elements in shah’s speeches and the rules of England to emergent of this behavior. The findings show that Mohammad Reza Shah with aware of his position as Iranian kingdom and Like most Iranians, based on historical wounds, depicts political environment full of fear. Fall of his father by allies powers, was the starting point of his xenophobia. According to the England rules in rise and fall of Reza Shah, as he thought, this country was blamed for any event that occurred in Iranian political environment. This particular psychological status led to a paradoxical behavior so that on the one hand sought the British support and On the other hand, conversely, was feel the threats by the British. Iranian social context and the contextualizing of Persian parole shaped a xenophobia behavior by focusing on the role of Britain in rhetorical speech of Mohammad Reza Shah during thirty-seven-years period of his dynasty. An important part of his political decisions backs to this key factor.
