Iranian of the Day

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this picture!!!

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this picture!!! It is a portrayal of how two people, perhaps from two very different backgrounds/beliefs, can come together to work for the common good. These women are both beautiful in their own way, and each has shown a bravery and committment that is only rarely seen in the Iranian community, especially among those abroad. It's a quintessential protrayal of the Iranian spirit. They have set their obvious differences aside and come together to work on a cause greater than each of them. We should be proud of souls like these. My hats off to both these beautiful and brave ladies! Oppression will never break the Iranian Spirit...not yesterday, not today, and not tomorrow... BRAVO!!! to both of these ladies and long live the Iranian Spirit for Truth, Dignity, Justice, and Freedom!

What a Silly Comment

Some Day, what a ridiculous comment about Nazanin's cloths. So you don't like her dress. Nazanin could be wearing nothing at all and she would still look better than you I am sure. :)

I absolutely LOVE, LOVE,

Hi Mona Just wanted to say

Hi Mona

Just wanted to say that you have expressed my thoughts too, better than anyone, and with the most wonderful choice of words. I enjoyed reading it and is indeed music to my ears:)
I hope you will not mind if I keep a copy of your writings here as they are very important to my thoughts.

IRI Participants

Participants in crimes of IRI turn into sheep as soon as they find competitors within IRI for their agenda. Do not trust these islamic neo-IRI. Read the story of "moosh va gorbeh" to know more about likes of haghighatjou. They are only at the service of their own interests.

BTW, who gave he visa to go to usa?

See our saviors

Compliments to Ms. Haghighatjou and Afshin Jam for their civility and wisdom for this meeting.
This is the sign of the time, we can see our saviors.

who's taller?

I think Afshin-Jam ... anyone disagree?

Guys

Can We Give Her A "Break" Please. Of course She is Beautiful. As Miss Canada, She could have given her support to Some "Bull Shit" cause That No One Cares about. Instead, She is working with the SCE Campaign which hopefully "Stops" some of The Children's Executions.

Let me be "Honest" With You: I Don't Mean To Be "Crude". But If It Takes for Her To Even Sleep with the Mullahs but Get A Bunch of "Kids" Off Execution, My Hats Off to Her.

Let's face It, It Is "More" Than Most of Us Do. Period.

look she is tall and beautifull

thinking positive about own star, we do not have so many girl's like her beautifull and tall, be pride to be Iranian and supporting here,

Ms. Haghiatjou, Islamic laws can change for the better

It is admirable that Ms. Haghighatjou lives to her last name’s definition and seeks the truth; the Islamic laws are anti women when compared with the human right charter… and extremely cruller to children.
I also hope that Ms. Afshin-jam continues her endeavors in defending the rights of children and women in Islamic societies.
The only thing I wish to end is the akhond-zadeh’s abuse of the freedom of expression. Those aghazadeh-ha and their mercenaries need to see the light, we no longer live in the 14th century. Islamic laws can change for the better.

grow up

One is questioning how afshin-jam dresses and the other questions haghighatjoo's hejab!!!!

It is none of either of your businesses how these two ladies dress.

To SCE Campaign and Nazanin

I must congradulate you on the work you have done so far, and wish you the best for a future full of success.

Some Day!

Where was this picture taken? At a fashion show? If they're campaigning together, couldn't Ms Afshin-Jam wear something more appropriate? Perhaps a business suit. Or the whole thing was deliberate to she the contrast.

Bah Bah

If Ms. Haghighatjou was a former MP, would she not have to have at some point in time, had some kind of affiliation, participation and coopertaion with the current Iranian regime? This is great. Getting the best of both worlds. I would have thought that as part of the establishment, this former MP would have to be critical of the way the person next to her is dressed. Instead, she has a smile goosh ta goosh!
Sure, maybe she is a reformer, working "within the establishment".

May 2007 article and photo:

Human Rights Advocate and former member of Iran's parliament , Fatemeh Haghighatjoo signed the Petition to stop child executions in Iran. In an email , Ms. Haghighatjoo also thanked Nazanin Afshin-Jam for her "unique efforts of human rights".

Nazanin Afshin-Jam and SCE Campaign  thank Dr. Haghighatjoo for her support of the Campaign to  permanently end child executions in Iran.

Fatemeh Haghighatjou,was a reformist member of the Iranian Parliament until February 2004. While in parliament she challenged and criticized the hardliners as well as the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei. She was the first to resign when the anti-reform measures of the Supreme Leader began to take shape. Her resignation was followed by few other pro-reform MP's.  In 2001, Ms. Haghighatjoo was sentenced to 20 months in prison, for “inciting public opinion and insulting the judiciary”. Her sentence—which she terms illegitimate and undemocratic, and which she has not served yet—was later reduced to 10 months. In 2005 Haghighatjoo was a fellow at MIT’s Center for International Relations. She is currently a fellow at Harvard University's Women and Public Policy Program. 

I would like to personally

I would like to personally praise you for your mission.
Thank you.

Keep up the great work...

Keep up the great work... any and all who are spending time and effort and ... to save the lives of their fellow human beings.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

A PERFECT MATCH!!

What a perfect match!
As my grandma used say "A blind always find a blind & a dump goes to a ditch!"

Honestly

Honestly, if Ms. Haghighatjou was standing next to an ordinary looking woman, the picture would not be getting this much attention. Is an attractive person more pleasant to look at? I'll be the fall guy here: Sure it is.
Some of us are blessed with good looks, brains,talent, fame, or forture ( with me not falling in any of these categories!), but the moment you want to put it in good use, and use it as a leverage in a cause you believe in, negative people are all over you, accusing you of not getting on the right cause, not having done enough,not fighting from the right angle, or 'using' your God-given blessing to advance it unfairly.

"If you do not want to be critisized, say nothing,do nothing, be nothing."
Long after we all have logged off and gone back to our daily lives, these two extraordinary women are still on their mission, working for democracy in the motherland.

خاک برسرت Anonymous 5 معلوم است اصلا تو این خانم را نمیشناسی و مزخرف میگویی. احمق این خانم در تورنتو زندگی نمیکند. چطور ممکن است یک آدم اینقدر کثیف باشد. البته تو که آدم نیستی.

to Mahmood Afghan

Mr. A, you did not quite understand what I meant when I put " - " as an anser to your comment.
I meant "sokoot" as in: Nothing , Zilch, Nada to your comment to aaj sr.
What is there to say to such absurd rationale as yours?
Therefore you need not thank me at all!
-By the way you are mistaken in assuming I am male.

A new video showing the secret connection

We were trying to prove this for many years and we were attacked by those who did not believe in us and finally:

give us feedback.

TO: MJ

thank you sir, you are a tolerant man, my hats off to you.

I think there was one person who understood what I meant by my definition of tolerance. I definetly have no intention of attacking any religion, but I wanted to demonstrate what my frustration with Amre-be-maroof and Nahye az monker is, and that you see in all religions.

thanks

TO: aaj Sr.

Well, if this pictures moved so much to tears and you saw the light of democracy and equality and salvation for your country, your motherland and your borthers and sisters and now you are happy and tomorrow you will go and eat a huge Soltanee with doogh and piaz and belch and say thanks god I live in USA and I write once in a while and praise any Iranian that is pretty and if I see her taking a PR picture with another woman who has covered her hair, then I have seen the light, my people are in peace and happiness and I can now go and light up a joint, because we are close to salvation, amen...

And then you wake up and realize that it was all bologny, you are a hypocrit, she is as well and if you think these little PRs about execution of children will shake up the root that people like you have established in Iran, then you are also a fool.

If she was ugly, hairy, short and with one eye blind and defending the Iranian children, you would call her a bad name! You see who you are?

Don't judge the wine by it's look of a bottle....

Your dream land is Turkey! Khosh gladee ghardash!

The diversity in the human family...

The diversity in the human family should be the cause of love and harmony, as it is in music where many different notes blend together in the making of a perfect chord.

The garden which is pleasing to the eye and which makes the heart glad, is the garden in which are growing side by side flowers of every hue, form and perfume, and the joyous contrast of colour is what makes for charm and beauty..... It is just the diversity and variety that constitutes its charm; each flower, each tree, each fruit, beside being beautiful in itself, brings out by contrast the qualities of the others, and shows to advantage the special loveliness of each and all.

Best Wishes,
Mona

To:Mahmood Afghan: This is a perfect photos for....

1-This is a prefect photo showing that people can co-exist regardless of their different opinion in religion, idealogy while collaborating toward comon goals. Without defending past regime, this is a picture of what it was then while there was no animosity among entire Nation. This is what you see "precisley" in Turkey, Lebanon, Malaysia, Syria, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia and almost all Islamic countries (except Saudi).

2-How do you know what other topics they talk about including "root of the problem"?. Have you listened/read their messages, interviews, speeches, letters, petitions?
If the answer is not, then you are hypocrit.

3-If you are not hypocrit, write back in this site and tell us what you, YES, you personally have done to get to the "root of the problem".

As Mahmod Ghafari said!

This is the perfect picture of unity in diversity.Being different but respecting each others ways of expression.
Democracy in Iran will not be achieved until we can have people standing close to each other and being so different bur kind to each other.
Loved the picture.

Mahmood Afghan

Why don't you do it? Has anyone held you back?

Mr. Darius KADIVAR
