Very strange

If you don't have or can't buy the equipment to keep flying planes without any risks, why would you continue flying and risk killing your own people? To keep the fake show going?

Don't be naive

Nobody, nobody gives a damn about Iranian people. The sanction will heart Iranian people - period.

The problem is The Basiji's control over 40% ot Irans Economy

by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on

So it's impossible to pressure the basiji's with out harming iranians, not going to happen.

That said, the US Govt's real actions and covert plans behind all this beautiful talk of supporting Democracy, Freedom and Justice, is really to harm the Iranian people as badly as they can, which is why they want Islam for Iran and brought the IRI to power, period.

Covertly they will continue with the EU in helping MEK, if not officially, unofficially.  As that is the best hope of making Iran into a North Korea, versus a Japan, which would create too much fair competition.  And which politician, running an Empire wants that?  Their goal is survival of their ownEmpire at the expense of the destruction of anyone in a Key Strategic Military Location.

Unfortunately for Iran, it occupies the most strategic location with respect to Russia, so it must never be allowed to develop, whether pro or anti west makes no difference.

I don`t like what the US government is doing!

by Benyamin on

The IRI is evil but US have demonstrated in the past theoretically and practically that they don`t give a damn about Iranian people.

The new sactions and the way they are implimented and on what itmes is a testimony for their incompitency and confusion of how to deal with the IRI.

Recently some in the US want to "de-blacklist" the MEK!!! they have no idea what iranians want or what they don`t want or they just don`t care.

It is sad but needed

by RostamZ on

The general population need to understand that their government is the source of all their misery. The problem will be fixed once this disgusting IRI goes away.

If they just prevent the oil export and revenew from getting to the IRR , the regime will collaps in matter of months and this nightmare would be over.

Iranian mentality about negotiating, some years a go and now.

by choghok on

a couple of years a go I was talking to a taxi driver in Iran. He was saying that if Ahmaghinejad would give a finger American and Europeans would take whole his whole arm. Well that is how Iranian mentality thinks about negotiating, hearing from a person that is right now paying most of sanction's price and probably not knowing that he does.

The strange thing was that the guy played "mobtazal" forbidden western music in his taxi during the time he was bashing the west, so he was not so extreme either.

At that time I was thinking these mullahs and Ahmaghinejad cannot really lose this fight because Nuclear energy has become the same as Irans "gheyrat" or honor, if they would make it they win, if western power attack IRI they would get Iranians behind them and would win I thought. I remember watching "nobate shoma" on BBC Persian and almost every body calling in was supportive of Ahmaghinejad then.

I do not know how Ahmaghi and the regime lost all that support. Was it because of the embargo or because of all other things that has happened in the recent years, but the people on the street could not care less about the nuclear energy today.
