Inspiring role model of Iranians
by Yousef (not verified) on Mon Jun 02, 2008 03:57 PM PDTFirouz Naderi Jan, I saw your video. Amazing how humble you are. I cried with you and I was happy when I saw the success of your team in NASA. I am so proud of you that you have not lost yourself in this materialistic world.
Afarin va sad Afarin. You are my role model too.
God bless and keep on inspiring us with your good deeds.
I was lucky to meet him
by Azarin Sadegh on Mon Jun 02, 2008 12:28 PM PDTI was so lucky to meet "The guy" in person yesterday...and to realize that I had donated to the wrong organization (but no regret here though)!
But of course I am going to donate also to this wonderful "bi naam" group of human beings...They are helping the children of Iran without making any noise about their incredible achievements and I am impatient to be able to talk more freely about them.
What really amazed me was Dr. Naderi himself. He is generous, bright, reachable, passionate and still very impressive in his humbleness…a true human being.
Azarin
You humble us all !
by hanna (not verified) on Mon Jun 02, 2008 11:41 AM PDTThere are many wonderful, and exceptional Iranians from all walks of life, and Dr. Naderi is definitely one of them. His compassion, sense of humility and humbleness despite all of his great achievements is in the words of our great poet Sa'adi "Worthy of being called a human being".
We are proud of you
by Kati (not verified) on Sun Jun 01, 2008 11:26 PM PDTDear Dr. Naderi,
You are going to show the world, Iran is not what the USA broadcast has introduced to the world through the last few decades.
Wish you to see Mohammad's most successes.

I AM HONRED
by IMA MORADI (not verified) on Wed May 21, 2008 07:30 AM PDTDear Dr Naderi and Mrs. Backtiar
Thanks for all the wonderful work that you do to represent IRAN as the wonderful and historian country that it is. I am honored to have some native Iranian like you.
Dear Dr Naderi, you are a role model for millions of people around the world. One of the many is me.I am a 36 years young women from Shiraz. I am living in Houston TX with my husband and my 12 years old daughter. After many years of take caring of my family , I am back to collage and university again. i chose you and Dr Hessabi as my role models, because with knowledge we can be much better person. I hope I can see you in person someday ,especially that we have a far family relations too.
IRAN IS HONORED TO HAVE A SON LIKE YOU.
Sincerely.
Ima.Moradi
Go Ms. Bakhtiar....
by Anonymous3333 (not verified) on Wed May 21, 2008 01:48 AM PDTI may have missed it, but was he awarded the nobel prize? Regardless, an iranian to be very proud of.
But more importantly, how about that goergious Rudi Bakhtiar? Gorboneh oon Shekleh ghashangesh. I would have donated a fortune just to see her dance to a nice iranian song at the party. I better stop writing or I'll fall in love and have to fantasize about her for the rest of my life.
May God bless you.

A Role Model For All
by Saalek (not verified) on Tue May 20, 2008 07:45 PM PDTThanks Dr. Naderi. You are a true Iranian. I will kiss your hands if I had a chance. Dr. Naderi should be a role model for all of us, particularly for those who like to see Iran destroyed because they do not like the government. As a famous person once said: “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country.” Lastly, governments do not come from Mars. They come from the people whom they govern.
I cried too...
by Azarin Sadegh on Tue May 20, 2008 06:36 PM PDTMy 11 years old son watched the video with me and he was so impressed by the accomplishments of Mr. Naderi and by his moving speech (and possibly by my red eyes!) that he insisted to help the children in Iran, and so we made a donation to this wonderful organization.
Thank you for sharing this video with us.
I truly hope that my son (like Mohammad) would consider this amazing man like his true role model. a

PS: I was very surprised to find out that The Child Foundation is directed by Yasmine Pahlavi, so I guess she doesn't like any positive publicity for her and her family and actually it has made me even more impressed by her.

God bless you Mr. Naderi.

They are a shame for Iran for exploiting its resources and suppressing its people.
To those who want to obliterate Iran:
Open your eyes. A great nation will survive.

I also enjoyed watching the introduction by Rudy Bakhtiar. She's another one of my favorite Iranians
