Sadly I heard the news of death of Mr. Akabr Radi! That was so sad that I was in shock for a while! He may be not known but the second Iranian generation outside the country but for the first who follow cultural and literature events is pretty known. According to experts of Iranian literature, he was the most famous and the most eminent Iranian dramatist. He was also known as the Iranian Chekhov! Many famous actors and actresses played his plays, including Mashayekhi, Entezami and Farahani. We miss him so much. God bless him

Dr. Bollinger, stupid behavior!

Just to say first that I am not behind the terrible Iranian regime with lack of any freedom and democracy but also to mention the behavior of Bollinger was very rude and unacceptable for me too! I don't like the Iranian regime from any view. No human rights, no respect, no freedom, no free of speech and nothing! But for the first time I would say I liked the behavior of this non- democratic president's reaction to Dr. Bollinger who invited him but insulted him, behaved absolutely in an non-academic way!

Iranians abroad

During my last decade that I spend my time out of Iran mostly in Europe and North America, I met a lot of Iranians from different backgrounds who left the country and settled down in a Western country for a better life or to get rid of the Islamic government. I met a lot of people in Europe who paid a lot to smugglers to bring them to Europe and how much money they spent to get an asylum-ship. I met so many educated Iranians who couldn't get the visa from any Western country and have hard situation in iran and a few could pay a lot to move to the western world.
