Iranian of the Day

Statira and Maziar

Your comments are so funny.

I love "Nane noghli in undergarment"

lol maziar

that was too funny

...

Sorry at least they lost the chance of defection to the west.

If mullah can say masjed jaye goz... nist then FIFA can say women soccer with hijab is not acceptable in stadium . PERIOD no hard feeling.    Maziar

!

And what the F is your problem?
What are you trying to say; like are you trying to be 'sarcastic'(masalan!), or you're just being s....?!

Or, is it that suddenly oghdehaat zad baalaa? And you just had to say something, no matter how stupid and irrelevant.
Well, if it helps, you can always write another one of your [hatred] blogs in order to empty yourself. I'm sure it'll help you...
But, whatever your problem is, don't take it out on me.
Now, you have a good night sir.

And btw, welcome back....

How is that scare theory going for you lately?

Say hi to Pope Glen the third and Pope Paul The Rush for us.

P/S Run over to US, Glen Beck, Sara Palin and Michelle Bachmann will hide you, free of charge I am sure.

Mehrban jaan,

The games (Youth Olympics) are held in Singapore.
But even if the games were in a "muslim" country, still FIFA would not allow anything political (religious) to mix with the game...
Turkey's girls football team are also competing in this tournament (and they are muslims), but they don't mix sports with politics.

Running with a scarf wrapped around their heads (& necks) for 90 mins...!!!  Beechaareh'aa! How the hell are they suppose to 'breathe'??!

P.S. next muslim suicide attacks: Zurich, Switzerland (FIFA's HQ)

Gender specific dress code has to be banned

To be FAIR lets ban all men soccer player IRI sends to any game too.

Lets not allow IRI spinmiesters to use this as a PR tool.

The Islamic Republic did not insist in having men soccer players putting Islamic head cover, why only girls?

Amir Normandi

IR is so confused about women

it first puts a maghnaeh on them, then sends them to Switzerland to play soccer!  How contradictory is that.

Poor Girls

Shame on Barbaric Islam and IRI.

Good decision by FIFA to not be part of the ISLAMIC Apartheid

Shame on I.R. for imposing a clothing code to half of Iran's ...

...population with these girls at it's recent victims.

ditto that statira

Iran's Federation should give the total right to these players to decide
if they want to keep their hejab or not to have it.

These girls deserve a pat on their back for standing for their right. But at the same time they should not give the opportunity to anyone to laugh at them and look at them inferiorly. Iran's Federation should give the total right to these players to decide if they want to keep their hejab or not to have it. I'm sure that all or at least most of them really like to go with FIFA's rule. BTW, what's wrong with wearing a long shorts with a long socks who cover their skin. And about black Rosari, if it's good, how about you wear it and run for 90 min to see how it feels.

Thank you FIFA

This is very good move by FIFA and all Iranians should support it. This is the same as shunning the South African sport teams at the time of Apartheid. It's not a measure against Iranian women but FIFA's insistence on observing the rule that no religious symbol is allowed on the field. A positive outcome of this is the Isolation of IRI regime. I would welcome shunning all Iranian sports team from the International games. Many of those who undermine this move by FIFA in this blog are possibly those who supported Gleneagles Agreement that banned the racist South African regime from the games. Only this time their religion or blind patriotism has blurred their vision. Appearing in International games is the least of worries of Iranian women who suffer the inequality and state prejudice in Iran.

For those of you who accused me of supporting the sanctions because I supported the FIFA decision in another news release, please note that "with us, or against us" was Bush's policy.  Open your mind a little bit. I do not support any sanction that causes hardship to Iranians such as sanction on the sales of petrol to Iran, but I favour any move that isolates the regime.

The same women who used to dress provacative and were in mini skirts( as you say) later turned into khaharane Zeinab. Iranians in general are extreme in everything. when they want to be pro-western modern, they step even further than the ordinary Westerner. And when they want to show themselves religeous, they dress sloppy like these poor girls and make a complete fool of themselves.

Btw, if wearing Islamic dress code and rosari is mandatory for women, why don't they make men athlete to wear turban, Aba va amameh, and instead of running shoe,nalein?

I would seriously doubt that any other country who has an Islamic form of government has any women football team. Countries like Saudi, Iraq, etc etc.

So these women have truly accomplished great impossibility in the face of such suppression in Iran by IR. FIFA's ruling is only a slap in their face as athletes and as suppressed gender.

-YT 

Sgtatira, Hah?

I am all for freedom to wear or not to wear Islamic hijab but decency in dress is the least they can have. But, your statement that "Iranian women were famous as one of the best dressed women in the M.E. or even in the world before the Revolution"?  You are of course kidding!  I do remember the mini skirts where their --- showed when they tried to sit on a chair. Their outrageous and blind imitation of Hollywood women  they had seen in movies and in their ignorance thinking it was the right way to dress on streets, offices, and  college campus believing they were "modern"!

Unfortunately, some in L.A. still do the same and walk around dressed like bar maids or whores.

Poor girls

Shame on FIFA

Dear Dariush

FIFA has rules that all international members have accepted and follow.

This is not the same as the Mullahs ruling the Country and dictating on people who live in it and leaving them with no choice.

You can either accept FIFA's rules or not. It is up to you and no one would force you to be a member.

This is pure control of people, physically and mentally, by a bunch of savage theives, who are doing all these crimes in the name of Religion.

I am not a religious person, but I doubt Islam's teachings are what they are inforcing on people.

Religion is a set of beliefs that people would look at and either accept and follow or if they don't like it, they don't have to. Not something shoved down their bodies by a bunch of criminals.

Dariushabadi

Az ghadeem gofatand, Khahee nashavi roosva, hamrange jamat sho. FIFA uniform is a standard form of uniform and every other country from Muslm to non-Muslim obey the rule and wear according to the standards. The dress code foced by the Islamic regime is not only unsual with the world standards, it's humiliating to Iranian women. Iranian women were famous as one of the best dressed women in the Middle East or even in the world before the Revolution. What happened to them.

You might say, no, look is not important. But in reality, look is important and shows the person's personality. Aghle mardom toyeh chesmeshooneh. The same way we get embarressed by Ahmaghinejad sloppy looks, Iranian women don't like their representative to be sloppy. 

farokh -- do you hear what you are saying?

You are saying it is not okay for Mullahs to dictate what women wear, but it is okay for FIFA to dictate what women wear? 

You justified it by saying " I think FIFA has done the right thing. These women would have been totally humiliated in public if they had gone on the field to play Football in that kind of stuff."

Isn't that the same logic the mullahs use? Stop being a hypocrite. Either condemn both, or stop having a double standard. 

How disgraceful

I have no idea how and why these crazy Mullahs think they have the right to control people and what they do and wear.

I think FIFA has done the right thing. These women would have been totally humiliated in public if they had gone on the field to play Football in that kind of stuff.

How could you play in those bags!?

The criminal Mullahs are digging their own graves by their actions.

Excellent decision

Excellent decision by FIFA. No compromize to islamo freaks including our own IRR. Next thing you know we have to see Football players in Burka!

Two sides of the same dictatorial coin

These poor athletes are FORCED to wear that crap by the islamic regime, and FORCED to not wear it by FIFA, both sides are infringing on the athletes personal choice.

Not a bad decision

They are not gonna achieve anthing in the Olympic games anyway, but at the same time are a bad, disgraceful representative for Iranian women. Look at them, how sloppy they are.They are all look like Nane noghli in undergarment. That's the ugliest athlete uniform.

when it rains...............

I guess it is not enough that these women have to overcome so much adversity to make the team under IR, now they are banned by the peace loving and SANE world.

Horrible decision FIFA

-YT 

Way to go FIFA

Great decision; for the good of the game. 

P.S. next muslim suicide attacks: Zurich, Switzerland!
