Current Events

For the lack of international news

all the US news agencies are giving a minute by minute Chilean miners rescue coverage. Pathetic eh!

onlyiran, you mean like when

onlyiran, you mean like when you people got the boot? :)

You fellas seen the speech

You fellas seen the speech yet? Pretty dramatic stuff. The entire square is filled beyond capacity. And no quarter is being given in the speech denouncing Zionism.

Amazing.

Have you seen the reaction from the US State Department? Disappointing, but not surprising. It's the same old tired hypocricy. Ron Paul for US President! is all I can say.

I don't know why anyone is surprised

These guys need a place to go after they're booted from Iran.  South Lebanon is the most ideal place.  No "country" will ever take them...not even Syria.  They'll be radioactive (not literally, but you get the meaning).  So, they'll end up in South Lebanon and will set up their own little fiefdom with all the billions that they will take from Iran.

So, is it really surprising that they are pouring billions into Lebanon?  Wouldn't you do it to ensure a safe haven for yourselves if you were ruling a country where you were so hated, where you had committed so many atrocities and where you were scared that at any minute, when you let your guard down for five minutes, people will be hanging you from light poles?   

I'm contemplating the flag

I'm contemplating the flag of the Islamic Republic alongside the Lebanese flag with a ceder tree at the centre. The people of Lebanon should have no doubt that if Hezbollah were to ever have its way then they would replace the ceder tree with the symbol of Allah or a Kalashnikoff.

As for the tall chick in the power suit, Nasrallah will force her to don a hijab. 

This is not at exaggeration.

Any rational person can see the same phenomenon in Iran before the catastrophe of 1979 repeating itself in Lebanon. The religious fanatics will rally all the different elements of the Lebanese political establishment and society around itself to confron a perceived enemy: This time in the form of Israel. 

Once they manage to obtain power the terrorist Hezbollah in Lebanon will eliminate their rivals and impose a fanatical Islamic state. 

I appeal to all Christian Lebanese to reject Hezbollah and kill the criminal Ahmadinjead while he is Lebanon. 

The Great Iranian Empire (circa 2010)

The Great Iranian Empire of 2010 is ranked below Angola in terms of its exports (and Angola only has one-fourth the IRI's population); and its GDP per capita (PPP) is lower than Botswana and Gabon. The IRI truly is a regional "super power". Oh yeah, sure it is.

Sargord!? Here you go again!

It was not too long ago that Cyrus and Darius were bad people in your ideology, now you are in your dream land comparing Ahmadinejad to Cyrus? WOW you have no principal!!

What is he going to do at the border? scare Israeli children by showing his face after all Halloween is coming, or stink up the place by his body odor?! He was wearing the same cloth that he was wearing in NY.

By the way Ahmadinejad is too small in stature to be compared to Cyrus and Darius. He has blood of Iranians on his hand, Cyrus freed people, did not put them in jail and have animals rape them.

"No Ghaze, No Lebenon, Janam Fdaye Iran"

Not that the IRI have been able to solve all our own problems in Iran such as poverty, un employment , inflation,  education, infrastructure, and ....Ahmadinejad is in Lebanon spending our money on people who took part in the war against us they helped Saddam kill our people, even today as soon as the money stops they will turn against us, Don't forget Lebanon voted for sanctions.

 By the way,  he looks so rediclus not shaking hand with that lady.

"No Ghaze, No Lebenon, Janam Fdaye Iran"

Mark, I don't know about everyone else

but we left Iran with a couple of suitcases and really not much else.  Our family home and everything in it having been destroyed in the Iran-Iraq war while you were attending private school in the U.S. and playing out the war with your toy F-4's and Mig-21's.  Oh, my father also lost his job of about twenty years because of the war.  So he was uneomplyed and we were homeless as war refugees.  In fact, we were so poor when we arrived in the U.S. that my family had to resort to collecting food stamps for a while so that we could have food on the table. 

No one ever paid us for the destroyed home and it was never rebuilt. BUT, I'm glad that that is not the case in Beit Jbail in South Lebanon, where all the destroyed homes are rebuilt with Iran's money and residents are even paid to furnish them.  I bet that makes you happy!

In school there are sometimes these really obnoxious kids. We have all ran into them. They tend to be weak but have big mouths. They taunt the bigger kids who usually ignore them. But at times they get so obnoxious that the bigger kids kick their a***. Then they run to the principal and cry that "Big so and so" hit me. While the whole time they are begging for it. IMHO Sargord is such a kid. He deliberately picks the most obnoxious position; then taunts people until his a** is kicked.

Me thinks he likes it.

VPK

SP...

In your Islamic Republic, Kourosh and Daryush do not have a place.  Need i remind you how your Khalkhali wanted to level Takhteh Jamshid after the great insurrection of 1979?  For these mental midgets, history started when Mammad and his band of thugs invaded Iran Zamin on camels 1400 years ago. 

Furthermore, the money we removed from Iran pales in comparison to the money you and your ilk have stolen from Iran since 1979.  If we didnt remove our funds, people like you would have confiscated it via the Kangaroo court system known as Dadgaheh Enghalab.

Know what you are talking about before you attempt to engage in conversation. 

Haji Firooz, you really enjoy making an a.. out of yourself

in here so much, I wonder if this was also how you got attention in high school too?

You're simply too ignorant to even comprehend the amount of monies and services we've sent to Iran during the past 31 years.

Now, if you really belonged to any one realcommunity ( American, Iranian,..) you might have understood what it means to sent help to your people, but since your a totally alienated, helpless, lifeless Gringo, having nothing to dobetter than making an a.. out of yourself, you just embody CHOBE DO SAR TALA!

See if you can understand what that means?

Iranian vs IRI

There seems to be a confusion over Iranian and IRI influence. I fully support Iranian influence in the region as well as beynd it. However I am weary of IRI influence. This goes for spending money as well as the nuclear issue.

Opposition to Iran comes from two points of view:

• Those who mistrust IRI but otherwise want to see a strong Iran.
• Those who do not want a strong Iran period.

These two groups are not to be confused. Temporarily there may be a confluence of interests however they will come to head in time. Once the IRI is gone the first group will find itself head to head with the second one. There may be some way to "bring over" the second types to the first however. I has a very interesting discussion with some Americans recently. I posed the question: will the nuclear issue matter if Iran had a "sane" government. The initial reaction was "no" however I managed to reason to them that the response should be "yes". A the end I had them agreeing. Iran will be strong when its leadership figures out how to  make friends. Specially with its opponents.

who says the media...

is the forth element of the democracy in this country? There is an absolute news black out on Ahmadi's visit to Beirut. How stupid...the reality won't go away by closing your eyes, you just give it a chance to sneak up on you...How stupid...How stupid...

Iranian power projection to

Iranian power projection to the Mediterranean: something Cyrus and Darius would clearly recognize.

It’s funny to hear Iranian exiles complain about money being taken out of Iran, to be used in other countries. How much money did you people suck out of the country when you pulled a “cut and run” from the Meehan?

You people aren’t called hypocrites for nothing.

A disgrace for

all the Iranian men. World view all Iranian men something like him, ugly, dirty and rude.

Dear Anonymous Observer,

Thanks for your kind words. I appreciate it. Regards.

A trip pregnant with War and Misery...

A trip "pregnant" with War and Misery...

..and for what, and for whose purpose?

The United We Are

Is not the whole universe built on "Unity?" Did not the great Iranian mathematician "Kharazami" discover the computer coding (The Binary Base) of "one" & "zero?" Are not we all either "on" or "off" of our bases? Let's be it then. If our hearts are chained together with "love" & with "caring for each other" we become an all "shining" universe ourselves. Let's go for it then starting right now!!

A few replies

1) The money IRI is spending in Lebanon is to buy influence. If we had a real nationalist government it will also spend money in other nations. The difference is that IRI does not have the good of Iran at heart. Otherwise spending money to gain influence is not wrong by istelf. For example I would happily spend money in Tajikistan and northern Afghanistan. They are basically Iranian people and deserve to be included. I want Iran to have influence in those nations. 

2) I normally disagree with MidWesty. However is he right about BBC. That "news" organization is biased beyond hope. They do not even know how to say "Persian Gulf". Rather "The Gulf"!! My foot! BBC management must learn geography and history. They just want to be taken as truth because they are Britons. Well it don't work like that.

3) I do agree that "Sargord" has shown more hated of Iran and is people than all others. No single person even our resident IMF is as anti Iranian. At least IMF is out for interests of his own nation: Lebanaon. What is Sargord up to? Does he have a nation.

In conclusion. I suggest all Iranians refust to take BBC seriously until it learns two words: Persian Gulf. In addition remind the jerks who run it of this at every opportunity. I live a happy and full life without BBC;you could too.

let us be united

Rather than fighting and criticizing each other, let us be united and come up with the best solution to make a better Iran At the same time for those folks who are US citizen, can try harder to make a better relationship between the two countries.

LOL

Blood Money Serenade!!

Mark my word - Lebanease both Christians and Moslems will pay for this betrayal of Iranian people.  

This is national tragedy!

The kind of money IRI is spending in Lebanon, they should kiss his feet too!

It is sad and a shame for us Iranians to have such a regime and president  that spending money and resources on people who really do not like us. If I am not mistaken these people helped and supported Saddam during the war. Our own people have to suffer and leave under such harsh condition, so Ahmadynejad  go and fix Lebanon's power grids!?, give money to Hezbollah.

For 1400 years we have suffered at the hand of these people and still have not learned our lesson. This is a national tragedy

Hana Makhmalbaf's Film Banned During Visit

LEBANON: Censors pull plug on screenings of Iranian protest film during Ahmadinejad visit (LA Times)

Spreading poverty, prostitution and repression in Iran

while spending billions in Lebanon!

What's wrong with this picture?

By taking away all government subsidies, the 40,000,000 ( that's forty millions) Iranians who are already living below poverty lines will be increased by at least a few more millions, but we have all this wealth and money to spend all over the world!

The unemployment figures since the begining of this Iranian new year, March 21, has been the highest in the past 31 years, joblessness plus the rate of inflation, is nothing but a creeping death sentences for overwhelming majority of Iranian people.

And this nasnas mozalef  thinks he's so popular.

Take away Basiji thugs and Sepah pimps from the streets, and they won't last half a day.

You might rule by bayonet, but can't live on bayonet!

Well said Amir

I was waiting for your usually well reasoned comeback. :-)

Phony Sargord,

I am a proud Iranian-American, a citizen of the US, a taxpayer, and a productive member of American society. Unlike you, I do not offer pathetic cyber propaganda on behalf of an anti-American, anti-Iranian terrorist regime, which from its first day to the very present has made "Death to America" its hallmark. It has taken American diplomats hostage and has promoted terrorists who have kidnapped Americans, killed Americans, and blown up U.S. embassies. You are a West-residing Groupie of a regime which is also the leading killer of Iranian men and women. Only a lowlife would fail to see the killing, raping, imprisoning, torturing, flogging, and censoring of the Iranian people as the most profound of anti-Iran actions. In summary, you are a complete and utter piece of.... well, you know. Now, keep barking, Phony Sargord. Cheers .-)

I agree fidelio

He makes my skin crawl.  He is disgusting.
