Latest news in Iran ( Archived) (267)

Hi Tom,

Hope you are well. Thanks for your new news. But the point is that America and Europe still want to deal with the Islamic republic and do business with them, and the sanction didn’t work. Why other governments have to do business with the fraud and terrorist government. They are helping Hezbollah in Lebanon and Palestine and they have sent troops to Iraq and they are keeping the region under their control and they shout their people up by threatening that they execute them. This is the absolute dictatorship and whoever support them is a dictator too.

They have shout the mouth of Britain that last Friday that Khamenei has mentioned that British Government is their first enemy that afterwards the British government and BBC pulled out and then Ahmadinejad had sent that message to Obama that America had pulled out as well and they have killed Protesters and they say that they execute everyone who protest against them. In the other hand all countries are fighting to do business with them because of their oil. And they have the strong military and allies in the region that they mention that they wipe out the Israel from the map. Apparently they are doing well so far.

Persiano, i am trying to see all sides in this dangerous time for your country. I want u to have the freedom u all so deserve to choose a majorily elected president.

My stand on this, is that because the US has a history of interfering in other countries domestic politics, when it needs to worry about itself first. And the western media is something i am skeptical of as it majorily run by corrupt businessmen to suit their own agenda.

However, the threat irans gov is to its own people and other countries (even tho i believe israel should hand some land back to the palestinians) is something that deeply troubles me.

Persiano, I want you to know there are many of us, here in America, that supports the efforts of Iranian protestors. I do not know how you would feel about stronger sanctions, that the UN is now talking about, but get prepared, and do what you can stocking up with essentials. Do that for yourself, and others who you can help, as that keeps all of you united. It's going to take some time, so get prepared for a long haul, and do not give up. The world is watching, and you might found out that, just across the boarder, preparations are being considered.

There are 20 million Persian people are living in USA only, and millions of other Persians in Europe and other parts of the world that all these people have migrated after the revolution in 1979 that Iran became Islamic. We all have witnessed that how these regime have killed Iranians and still are killing. All those Persians out side Iran are out side of Iran because of this regime and they all want to come back, beside all Iranian inside the country are sacrificing and suffering on daily basis because of lack of freedom and the bad economy. Iran is one of the richest countries in the world regarded the underground wealth and other sources of natural wealth that owns but why people have to live in poverty? Because Mullahs whom run the country fill out their pockets first and then they spend the money on supporting Palestinians and Lebanon, Syria, and mullahs in Iraq and all other Muslim countries they even fight for them as they’ve done that for Bosnia for instance. Before that they were saying that Shah of Iran was taking the money for him self but believe me that gentleman the Shah of Iran loved his country and his people, we had international reputations, people had freedom and they were wealthy, there were no poor people, and everyone from neighbourhood countries were coming there to work as the economy was good there. Anyways the past is gone, speaking about now, people want freedom, and they want that religion and politics to be separated from each other and the money of the underground wealth belongs to the people of Iran and they should have good economy and live better as they are living now, the other thing is that all the young people became addicted and that is all because of Islamic regime, the numbers of execution had raised to 300% more than past since Ahmadinejad and so many stoning, and forcing women to wear veils, the list goes on and on but these are some very simple and basic things that Iranian people want to have. We want regime change and to open the doors to the international business world and tourisms industries, and to restore the economy of the Iran and the world. And all those Persian out side of Iran will all come back home. I just hope that in my life time I see that day.

Don’t believe those sanctions that you hear they are talking about, it’s all about talking, at the end of the day, that’s the money that counts and sanctions doesn’t work because as I have mentioned earlier that many countries are fighting to be the first ones to do business with Iranian authorities they don’t care if they are Mullahs or the King, they are looking for their own interests and sanctions doesn’t work because there are always under curtain business hand shakings, beside what’s our fault to be affected economically as citizens, in fact we have to live better economically as we have a rich country, that’s not going to make these people to go, they are stocked with the power and ain’t give up. There should be other solutions, these Mullahs are very smart, we have to come up with smarter ideas to beat them.

Iran does fight Israel, but only through proxies. It has spent considerable sums embedding itself into Syrian and Lebanese politics and killing Israeli's by those means. Yes, I do wish some people would learn to place blame where it squarely belongs and not on the all purpose "colonialism".

Magenta, how far from Isreal and Gaza from Iran? Iran is not even connected to the two parties (Isreal and Palestines) that are in conflict. The distance is about 1000 miles

Of the Isreal's 7 wars and with nations states and 2 inifitadas with Palestine.....know how many times Iran has directly participated as a nation state combatant? 0

Iran has facilitated the conflicts. Sold weapons and explosives into them. Made money from them. Used them for stirring the middle east pot. For exporting revolutionary Islam. But actually sending Iranian forces to combat the Great Satan state of Israel. Never.

Does that seem strange or hypercritical to anyone?(quote)

Tom, perhaps u have misunderstood me.
And i dont need a lesson on world geography.

Any way, i see the only way to achieve real peace there is to give some land back to palestine on the premise that all attacks on israel are punishable.

Anyhoo, this thread is about iran isnt it.

magenta the US has sold weapons to just about everyone. We supplied Saddam with weapons and chemicals and we laughed when he used them on Iran. When he used them on rebels we liked that was a different matter.
