Dear Allah the Merciful and Compassionate

by AlexInFlorida on

Welcome to Iran Allah

Where most of your muslim authorities are corrupt, lying, thieves.

You must be so Proud Allah... of what your magnificent Koran has produced in comparison to Irans Monarchy.

Your Muslim authorities enjoy using words like Independence, Freedom, Justice and Compassion...... As they create slaves, rape men and women, pass judgement with out  pardon and help themselves to Irans Oil Revenue, while improving really no ones life.

Allah you know what the greatest honor is in this world... after reading your book of wisdom, the koran?

Yes, you guessed right, well done, it's being called a traitor, a corruptor of the earth, a dictator, a tyrant and a crook by your esteemed followers and authorities in Iran.  I truly feel blessed as I am sure the Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi felt being called these things by your believers and role models.

One Million Thank you's from the bottom of my heart.

Truthfully Yours,

 Alex

I recognize your concern for someone who could be innocent by any standard, however he and many others are paying the price of the mistakes made by their previous generation.

Enemy of God

by xyz on

What do you Eyeranians call your enemies of God? and how does one become an enemy of God? By waging war against God? I guess this notion is very peculiar. Does it amount to apostasy? Can the poor fellow not recant? Isn't he a bit too young to be such a serious criminal? He sure deserves a second chance. Nice and smart looking.

Raul no logic no ethic!

by Golinedairani on

"چون ايران نباشد تن من مباد"  My english is not that great but let me simplify this for you your a Jack ass, and obviously not very knowledgeable about Iran, the generation that is being effected my generation with this regime had no hand in bringing it about, this young boy who you feel nothing for which really no one cares what you feel but since you felt the compulsion to share your opinion as if you know what you are talking about, let us clarify for you. Regardless of what people say now they had the revolution, to encompass an Islamic element or their Eastern values in to their society they felt was being lost and to replace a dictator, the Shah was a dictator ( albeit I would have preferred to have grown up under his reign ).. So from an enthical / logic stand point you should have no issue to what happens to the individuals that brought this regime about, however your statement is irrelevant because this boy is 21 years old and obviously you did not read the information presented ..he was pro monarchy so further someone who would write what you would write if they had any ethics or understood logic would actually feel for this young man.. I'm just writing this to clarify how ridiculous your comment is and who cares what you think anyway your premise is flawed...

I would like to hear from those who are defending Islam (not the IRI supporters. There is no hope of salvation for them). Is it Islam or is it not? In either case, do you condemn this or do you just keep quiet?

VERY TACTFUL

by Ayatoilet on

Have you noticed how skillfully the Islmic regime rolls out the news of trials, verdicts, executions, rapes, torture and arrests of the populace. The repression is staged with accuracy of a clock to terrorize the people one dose at a time. To think of it, they could eliminate the whole opposition in a few days, in one shot, as they did in 1989, but what long lasting lesson will that teach the remainder of the population?

Besides the Poor Fellow is Innocent ...

by Darius Kadivar on

For the Sake of Repeating myself ... 

And Besides these young men are innocent and their sentence is definitively disproportionate to their would be "crime" of being or sympathizing with the Monarchist Cause.

They are not even affiliated to any known and recognized monarchist organization for that matter. It's just an excuse to intimidate Iranians from demonstrating or calling for regime change.


Darius Kadivar

Royal Institution in Iran has an older history than the British

by Darius Kadivar on

One ... even if it was ruled under various dynasties.

As for the British installing Reza Shah ... They simply did Not Oppose his Coup.

To claim they put him on the Peacock Throne is not accurate.

They did topple Him as Iran was no super power and could not resist the British Empire nor the Russians for that matter and not even under the Qajar predecessor.

But Give Credit Where it is due, Reza Shah was a man in advance for his time tried to make Iran independent from British and Russian Domination by seeking alliance with the Germans and Italians.

That the British were not hostile to Reza Shah's accession to the throne is one thing to claim he was created by them entirely is not only a false statement but a lie !

Reza Shah was an ambitious man with a clear and modern vision for Iran and did what anyother person in his shoes would have done. Try to compromise with the then superpowers until he could impose his conditions on them in return.

That was not to be mainly because of WWII.

Otherwise Reza Shah by all accounts was a Self Made Man and that is why to this day the Founder of the Pahlavi Dynasty unlike his less fortunate son is still refered to as" Great"by most Iranians  despite having been sent to exile by the Allies  ...

And Besides these young men are innocent and their sentence is definitively disproportionate to their would be "crime" of being or sympathizing with the Monarchist Cause.

They are not even affiliated to any known and recognized monarchist organization for that matter. It's just an excuse to intimidate Iranians from demonstrating or calling for regime change.

I hope that his sentance won't be carried out like the two other poor fellows.

Peace,

DK

Ignorance to the Nth degree!

by Kamran Ramyar on

Hey Raoul 1955....whoever or whereever you are..... you suffer from profound IGNORANCE.   I take particular exception to last sentence in your comment.."THE PROBLEMS THAT THESE ARABIC IRANIANS ARE HAVING SHOULD SERVE AS A VERY IMPORTANT LESSON WHY CULTURALLY BACKWARDS THIRD WORLD SOCIETIES SUCH AS IRAN SHOULD BE UNDER U.S. CONTROL"  You don't say???!!!!  

FYI:

1) Iranians are NOT Arabs!

2) Iran is NOT a backward society

3) Under monarchy Iranians may have had freedom of religion but that is where it all stopped.  You obviously are illiterate and unable to have read accounts of Iranians tortured, raped, and killed through the hands of SAVAK!

3) The last thing I , as an Iranian, would want is to come under control/ influence of uncle Sam or any foreign power for that matter.  Maybe imbecile folks like you enjoy that predicament.  That is simply not an option for a culturally advanced society/ country such as Iran 

4) A word of caution...Next time you want to opine about world events get your facts together before opening your mounth!

You talk like the 1979 so called revolution was actually carried out by the Iranian people. It was not. It was a carefull plot to systematically deconstruct a nation, and it worked! 

It is true that the religious nature of many Iranians was used as a catalyst to propell Khomeini into power and later established one of the most brutal regimes in Iranain history, but man, you're off base with your comments.

Everybody makes mistakes; the key is to correct the mistakes before they burn down your house.....even more than they already have.

To Raoul1955

by Benyamin on

I assume the 1955 following your nick name is the year you were born! if my assumption is right or wrong it doesn`t matter since you got it wrong!

I don`t know if you are Iranian or not but from what I read in your comment you clearly are not or have no knowledge of Iran`s recent history.

Iranians lead the very first democratic revolution in all of Asia when alot of countries didn`t even exist or so on and so forth. Iranians fought and died for freedom and our revolution was the third major revolution after the french and the americans to establish democracy. That revolution was betrayed by the Russians and some idiots within the monarchs.

But by 1950`s Iranians ellected a man named Dr. Mosadegh which implimented the best democracy on the face of the earth! at the same time in your beloved USA people were jailed for believing or even just by association to communism whereas in Iran they were free and could practice and even be part of government. The very same USA that talks about freedom ousted the Dr. Mossadegh`s great freedom and re-installed Shah which as you admittingly described created a less freedom compare with what we had before it. The Arabized Iranians are directly the result of that action by the USA and that is "hate". Hate could do funny things and to this day no one is more blamed for Iran`s situation than your beloved USA.

By the way, what you siad here is so below the belt that it made me laughed. You seem to think that other nations have no right to be more free or to be just as free as your country or western europeans! and I argue perhaps that same mentality lead the americans to over throw a perfect democracy and re-installed it with the one that you agree was far less democratic than any other nation (including Israel) and all of western europe or north america!

Get your facts right and then open your mind!

By Choice

by Raoul1955 on

I have no sympathy for what is happening to this young man or what has happened to others who have opposed arabized Iranians in the past three decades:
Up until a few decades ago Iran had been under a monarchy initially established by the British, and later reinstituted by the US.   That monarchy initialized the Westernization of Iran and paved the path of cultural advancement of Iranians.  During the said period Iranians enjoyed more freedoms than any country in Asia, Africa, Middle East [excluding Israel], the Eastern Europe, and any country in South or Central Americas.  They also enjoyed freedom FROM religion.Unfortunately Iranians en masse decided to abandon all those precious freedoms in favor of a 7th Century Arab cult.  They then overthrew a Westernized king in favor of a semi-literate mullah named khomeini.   Iranians then created an islamic regime, thus foregoing all freedoms they had had during the period that Iran was under the US control and run by a monarchy.  This article highlights one of the many problems that Arabized Iranians have had within their own society.
The problems that these [Arabic] Iranians are having should serve as a very important lesson why culturally backwards third world societies such as Iran should be under the US control.

They will pay!

by PArviz on

Seeing the perpetrators and the executioners of these barbaric crimes in a court of law is a dream of mine which I am sure will come true some day very soon (but not soon enough even if it were to happen tomorrow).

If the IRI herd think murdering innocent and brave young men is going to save them, they are DEAD wrong.

Make no mistakes, they will pay for their crimes and this should be made very clear to all the thugs, Basijis, Pasdars and all the foot soldiers who, by their brutality and violence, have kept the regime in power so far. "just carrying out orders" ain't gonna cut it anymore, as it didn't at the Nuremberg trials of the Nazis. 

Down with the ENTIRE Islamic Republic (in any shape or form)!
