First - I like to start by addressing those moslem fanatics Hezbollah friends out there. You and I - we have something in common my fellow backward human - we both want to fix humanity and the west !!! You did not know that did you ?! We have both detected problems in the west - but we share nothing in common thereafter. I can devise solutions to make things better - you are not capable of good. I either don't care or mean it when I care..... You can't care for nothing but you and yours. I mean the west well - you don't. But let me assure you - I shall succeed, because I am part of the west. Yes I am a westerner, yet more easterner than you'll ever be - and have what it takes to add something to the melting pot. You on the other hand - have no insight or talent for making or fixing things. You only multiply - and eliminate.   What do I have that you don't - you ask ? Well I have "it" - and that "it" is what was handed to me by generations of great Persian men and women - who kept the "light" alive. What light you ask ? The light of love, grace, honor, honesty, kindness, integrity, tolerance, articulation, ingenuity, creativity, humor, laughter, joy, humanity, …………Do you have all of those in your homes or communities ? The rest of the world is looking at you. The west is hungry for culture, but one look at you and your bahvior – and they know you have nothing they want !!

 West does suffer from greed, manipulation, and many other diseases, but I have the will and the culture to fix it – and unlike you, my solution does not involve, elimination of those I dislike. And as for you my un-evolved idol-maker, pay attention – maybe you can lift your spirit - maybe you can use Erfan (“it”) to make the evolutionary human jump from "worshiper" to "wise". Just know that many have made that transition from all races and nations – it’s not ethnical or racial – it’s cultural.

And as for you my western friends - It’s a jump no science or technology can accommodate. It takes “it” – and don’t look anywhere beyond your heart to find “it”. I just showed you the direction - all I can do now is hope that some of you will wonder about "it". Good Luck.

Yet another Iranian Persian

Future

I wish it could be this easy on a larger scale!  Unfortunately history has proven that simple dialogue is considered the last resort.  But I'm not giving up hope.  Nobody seems to want to discuss what we can do to help achieve any goals.  The same old crap of "leave us alone" or "we would be just fine if it wasn't for the US".  I just get so frustrated with an attitude that is so counterproductive.  Then again, maybe I get as defensive as alot of other people here do.  But I hardly think banning me or anyone else who isn't "pure" Iranian is the answer.  And I wonder what the standards are for having the right to visit this site.  I wish it WERE for humanities sake.  But again, you give me hope.

Dear Tonya

I especialy mean America - it's the best Humanity has to offer so far.  And us Persians especialy like America since our culture was thankfuly one of the two foundations America was idealogicaly founded upon.    Do a search on "Cyropaedia" - and here is a link.   This book, written by the Greek historian Xenephon, was one of the two books which were reading assignments for the American Founding fathers.   The copy belonging to Thomas Jefferson is in the Congress Library today.

Don't forget America owes Persia on:

.............We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

Serious?

Are you for real?  I thought at first it was going to be another "bash the West" article.  But then as I kept reading, I thought to myself... wait a minute... this guy might be for real.  I've said it time and time again... the US (and I hope you're including the US in your plan) is only a few centuries old.  You're a nation of 2500 years!  We're a child compared to Iran.  A child with very dangerous toys to be sure... but I'd like to think that I'm not the only American to think this way.  There are just as many people who abhor our own present government as there are Persians who despise the current regime in Iran.  My mind is wandering to a time when my husband can take me to his homeland without fear.  We could use a little humanity.  Thank you for a glimmer of hope.
