Would you consider it equally offensive if someone said they were a 'proud christian', 'proud Bahai', 'proud Jew' etc.??

Islamic/Arabic identity for IRANIANS!! Not ready for secularism!

by Takavar on

She works for IRI and is a part of IRI's system. Mullahs paid millions of dollars to European for her Nobel prize and now is her turn to do the dirty job for them and do some Khosh khedmatee. In one of her interviews Hajeehe Khanoom Ebadi said that she is a proud Shia!!!!!

On Humanitarian work I give her 20/20 but on Iranian identity she fails miserably like the rest of Arabo Ommaties.

 دکتر شيرين عبادی در تازه ترين سخنرانی خودشان در دانشگاه ناروپای کلرادو.  تاکيد می کنند که «به دليل دو قطبی شدن جهان، مردم مسلمان به سوی هويت اسلامی خودشان برگشته اند» و بر اين اساس نتيجه می گيرند که «و در حال حاضر يک دولت سکولار در ميان مردم ايران خريداری ندارد.» ايشان نيز به اين ترتيب تاکيد می کنند که ايرانی ها هم مثل ديگر مسلمانان خاورميانه به سوی هويت خودشان که «اسلامی» است بازگشته اند. بی آنکه توضيح دهند تعريف و ترکيب اين هويت اسلامی چيست که ما به آن بازگشته ايم. و آيا ما، به عنوان شهروندان ايرانزمين، هيچ وقت چون کشورهای ديگر خاورميانه که اسلام برآمده از فرهنگ ريشه ای «سامی» خودشان بوده، هويتی به نام هويت اسلامی داشته ايم که اکنون به آن برگرديم؟

Congratulations Dr Ebadi

by Setareh Cheshmakzan on

Dr Ebadi deserves to be recognized and honored for not only her accomplishments as a human rights advocate, but also for having to put up with the most chauvinistic, arrogant, biased, hateful men who keep presenting obstacles in her way and putting her down without having any significant accomplishment of their own, be it the mullahs in Iran or the anti-mullahs outside!

I wish they would stop patronizing and criticizing her every move and maybe even just for once, appreciate such a hard working lady for what she's accomplished for the Iranians which is much more than they would ever do with their pathetic criticism of her hejab! Get real!

double standard

by mahmoudg on

In their opening video, they have her painting showing her in a hejab.  now is that not a double standard.  The interview is non-hejab but they see it fit that at least the intro be with her hejab on.  how pathetic.
