April 13, 2001 Comments from readers about more Iranians of the year. Also see "Ganji", "Khatami, Googoosh & Pahlavi" and "Notables" . * Khodam Khodam.. Dr. Ardeshir Bahreininejad (//www.bahreininejad.com). I spent two years in Iran in 1997-99, carried out my military service where I found so many friends and I was a symbol of down to earth PhD holder and I received friendship from all sectors of people. More details on request. * I am Iranian of the year I do nominate myself as the Iranian of the year. It may sound selfish but not too many Iranian people know me and what I have accomplished in the past 32 years. I got married in Tehran in 1969 while I was a student at Tehran university. Since then I have moved to the U.S., raised four daughters by myself and received my Ph.D. And above all that, I went through a horrible marriage and kept it for 30 years. At the present time I am teaching at Louisiana State University while doing research at Pennington Biomedical research Center. I have published a number of journal articles and have given numerous presentations in the field of food science. Three of my daughters are married and very successful and one is living with me and is in 10th grade. * Don't I deserve it? I HAVE BEEN A SINGLE MOTHER FOR THE LAST 13 YEARS. WORKED HARD TO GET MY SON TO FINISH HIS HIGH SCHOOL AND GO TO COLLEGE. I AM GOING TO SCHOOL AND TRYING TO GET A DEGREE IN NETWORKING AND I HAVE LIVED A DECENT LIFE WITH NO HELP AT ALL. DON'T I DESERVE TO BE THE IRANIAN OF THE YEAR? * My Aunt Jenia I nominate my dear Aunt Jenia Behnami as Iranian of the year. She lives in Tehran and is now in her 70s. She has taken care of family and friends for her entire life. She has remained in Iran during difficult war times and death of family members. She is a true and loving aunt that is selfless and deserves recognition. She is not political at all but has a deep respect and love for faith and honesty. I cannot think of any person I know that is more deserving. I know this type of award is usually given to a politician or a man of religion. I think this year a woman should receive recognition. * Sang paa Qazvin My choice for the Iranian of the year is (former Intelligence Minister) Ali Fallahian because he proves that SANG PAA QAZVIN is nothing compared to his ROO. * Mayor of Karaj My Iranian of the year is His Royal Highness Mayor of Karaj.
Iranian of the year is the leader of the Islamic Government, Seyyed Ali Khamenei. We finally found an honest politician. He is a hardliner and power hungary. He is an unashamed Machiavelian and is not afraid of showing what he really is. The world of politics needs more people like him. Brutal, but honest. Furthermore, in a hundred years, you will see that he helped facilitate reforms much more than the reformers. (Put Seyyed Hassan Rastgoo as the author of this letter please. I am planning to go home sometime in the future, you know!) * Very good murderer I vote for: Ali Fallahian. As the head of Iran's secutity service he performed fine and strong. He appointed Haj Saeed Eslami (Emami) as his number two man and together they slaughtered Iran's intelectuals very nicely. They intended to finish the job, but some traitors exposed them to the press and stopped their very important project. Mr. Fallahian has proved that he is capabale of commiting murder, torture to purge the country from its intellectual forces. Since he is a candidate for the presidency, I suggest that we make him our beloved leader for ALL THE TIME. Ali Fallahian, Man of the Year, or better say Man of the Century. * Croc of the year Rafsanjani. The croc of the year who is more flexible than roaches and rats in the art of survival. * Montazeri I vote for Ayatollah Montazeri because by publishing his book on the Internet, he told the world the real intention of the leadres of Islamic Republic of Iran.
In my opinion, the Iranian of the year is Mr. Putin, the president of Russia, because he was the first person to get his "aidi" which was seven billion dollars from Iran for military equipment. President Khatami personally handed him the money. * Nuke capability Iran's chief of military acquisistions. The development of nuclear or atomic capabilities put Iran on par with its enemy Israel and Iraq. * Cyrus Travel I vote for Cyrus Beheshti founder of Cyrus Travel because of his commitment to all Iranians for the past 20 years. His deals with the airlines have allowed more Iranians to visit their homeland and their families at very cheap prices. His tours to Iran for Americans was revolutionary in its own right. His travel agency helps more Iranians get from here to there than any other. * She has courage Catherine Bell , the star of the TV show JAG is my Iranian of the year. She has the courage to talk about her Iranian heritage with pride. In one episode of her weekly show she did a story about Iran and spoke fluent Persian. She also talks about her heritage in most talk shows. * Persistent Zia from NITV. Good man. Persistent. I wish him success.
My choice for Iranian of the year is definitely Leila Forouhar. Simply because she's the best. She's an excellent singer, keeps her fans and everyone happy. Also a great person. * I love Kamran I LOVE KAMRAN FROM THE BLACK CATS. I THINK HE'S THE IRANIAN NOT ONLY OF THE YEAR BUT OF ETERNITY!!! :) * Stayed the same for years Iranian of the year is Dariush Eqbali bcoz he has not forgotten his culture and where he is from. He does not try to b what he's not. He has stayed the same Iranian Dariush for years now. So I guess in my opinion he would be very good.... well I would choose Googoosh as well... * Reed beh harchi... Molla Hasasni, chun reed beh harchi Akhund bud va hast.
