Inspiring role model of Iranians

by Yousef (not verified) on

Firouz 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

I 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.

You humble us all !

by hanna (not verified) on

There 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

Dear 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.

Go Ms. Bakhtiar....

by Anonymous3333 (not verified) on

I 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.

A Role Model For All

by Saalek (not verified) on

Thanks 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

My 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.

Another Iranian contributing to human culture...

by Anonymo (not verified) on

Thank you Dr. Naderi. It's a shame Pahlavi
Family was there!
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.

Great accomplishments

by IRANdokht on

Great accomplishments of another very intelligent Iranian. Mr Naderi is one to be proud of. He's not only super smart, he's also a humanitarian with a big heart: What a man!

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