 But he, the avid supporter of the islamist regime, is already "here", be it LA, Toronto or London. That is the point, at least my point!

And your point, IRI, fussy?!...hmmm, you don’t have one!

“I know, I have lived in this country for over half a century.”

And your point?!...hmmm, you don’t have one!

I have lived in this country – The United States of America - for more than thirty years and I am still convinced that, though by no stretch of any imagination it is the utopia, it is still one of the best – if not the best! – Countries in the world to live in and be a citizen of; a simple test would prove my assertion. How?

You tell me. If tomorrow all that’s INS and border patrol went on vacation and left the ports of entry wide open, I bet you dollars to doughnuts that there’ll be more people coming in to the US of A, including smack talking ignoramuses like you, than be going out!

No matter what kind of a psychopathically derived conspiracy theory your deprived mind wants to believe is being done on American people as you say “Tv programs are:  junk, lies, shallow, and arrogant to keep the public busy with trash so they don't learn about the world around them.,”  - as if you know anything about the world around you! - all of the Americans that I have known in this over 3 decades of living in this blessed land of great opportunities who have been worth their salt and not some whining under arm stinkin’ slackers, have been living good lives.

I have had a fantastic life, thank you very much, and I made it for me from scratch, benefiting from the opportunities that the US of A has provided equally for me and all Americans, so you know!

“Would US allow Islamic Republic of Iran broadcast on their TV?”

Puh-friggin’-leez!!...

Really. What are you trying to pull here?

What “allow?!”…

It is not like how you imagine it in your Islamically suppressed mind any more, when it comes to TV watching in America, or any free modern country!

Americans have the technology and the freedom to watch whatever they want whenever they want, by any means they choose, if somebody is putting it out there, frm any where inthe world, to be seen…
I watch any channel that the Islamic republic streams over the internet, here in America where internet is not under the control of mullahs and its speed kicks ass, any time I want! I could also do it with satellite TV, but why should I?!...

So you see? You don’t have a point either, my miserable fellow Iranian…

Noush…

He was bankrolling this venture, right?


IRI

Would US allow Islamic Republic of Iran broadcast

by IRI on

On their TV? Government would freak out. They had a tough time to allow limited companies broadcast Aljazeera news channel. People who perceive everything bad with Iran and everything good with West can't be a good judge for what's best for Iran. Enough said.

fussygorilla

How biased can you get? Mr. Darius

by fussygorilla on

Or, sitting in London, you may be actually so ignorant of what the "Democratic" YOU ESS OV A...Tv programs are:  junk, lies, shallow, and arrogant to keep the public busy with trash so they don't learn about the world around them.  I know, I have lived in this country for over half a century. 

I would bet it is not your ignorance but your hate against the Islamic Republic as evidenced from your posts which I normally just pass over since you biases have been demostrated over and over.

Sargord Jaan ... Bet This is happens all the time on US TV too ?

by Darius Kadivar on

Can't wait to get your feedbacks on your comparative study between "Democratic" IRI and the YOU ESS OV A ...
