It was better if

Iranians channel all that enthusiasm and anger toward their  islamic rapist regime instead of each other.  Shah rafto gheirate irania ra ham ba khodesh bord. Ahahah!

Vaccinate ourselves against foreign intrigues

Hamsade jaan, please don't play that card.  If you have any doubts about the Israeli-sponsored effort to use Jewish Baku Azeris to infiltrate Iran, disseminate anti-Iranian propaganda, and build-up the weak pan-Turk movement in Iran, read what the Israelis themselves admit and what other Western observers have to say:

 Israeli Brigadier General Oded Tira in 2006:

"For our part, we must prepare an independent military strike by coordinating flights in Iraqi airspace with the US. We should also coordinate with Azerbaijan the use of airbases in its territory and also enlist the support of the Azeri minority in Iran. "

According to Seymour Hersh and Scott Ritter, the Israeli Mossad is busily at work unleashing covert intelligence cells inside Iran, “supplemented with specially trained commandos entering Iran disguised as local villagers,” according to Hersh. In an interview published by Aljazeera, Ritter claims “the Mossad is working with the Azeri population” to undermine Iranian sovereignty.

According to Glenn Hauser, an American who monitors short wave radio, the Voice of Southern Azerbaijan is an Israeli operation. Wolfgang Bueschel, another short wave monitor, told “IPS in October 1992 from Baku, that the Israelian (sic) secret service specialist David Kimche and… Richard Secord, who was involved in the Iran-Contra-Affair, visited Azerbaijan, (and) presented a delegation of more Israelian secret service personnel. Mr. Culuzadeh took part on a return visit to Israel, (and) lead a delegation of Azerbaijan/Uzbek/Kazakh secret services.”

This is what is needed to intellectually and philosophically combat the distortion and decay of Iranian/Persian nationalism in Iran, and historic Iran (Baku, Arbil, Yerevan, Dushanbe, Herat, etc.).  Not force.  Just a reminder of what we were, and what we are, notwithstanding attempts by the world to uproot the existance of Persian identity and culture. 

If we do not vigorously promote for the truth of Iranian/Persian cultural identity in places like Baku and Arbil, our own youth in Iran will be mislead by active foreign forces promoting their "brand" and result will be shoved back in our faces in Tehran, just like we see in these videos. 

Foreigners using Baku Jews Are Instigating This

Azeri-speaking Soviet Jews/Israelis from Baku have infiltrated Iran with the purpose of instigating ethnic conflict and seperatism.  They are responible for the inflammatory rhetoric and are suckering a lot of Azari Iranian youth, who are desperate for an alternative to ths anti-nationalist, Islam-centric policies of the Islamic Republic.  This is also instigating other Iranians to respond, and deliberately creating dangerous in-fighting and havoc.

The Islamic Republic government's policies are contributing to the mess.  This tolerance of foreign-backed pan-Turkism in Iran is getting carried away.  Turkish flags in the stands in TEHRAN?!  Calling Iranians "Farses" and "Afghans" in TEHRAN itself?   Also, the INTOLERANCE and effective criminalization of Iranian/Persian nationalism is resulting in almost EVERY Iranian latching on to their secondary identity and substituting it for Iranian/Persian nationalism as an expression of nationalist sentiment.    It's not just the Azaris.

 The answer is simple. The Iranian government must stop all hostilities against Iranian/Persian nationalism, and must actively promote it, not just in Iran, but also in Iraq, Baku, and the Caucuses. They must open the long slammed-shut flood gates of Iranian patriotism to give Iranians an opportunity to express their identity as a nation.  

Fugly?

The Islamic Republic has stolen your country, tortured and killed its people, ransacked it in the name of god and you are worried about a group of people waving the Turkish flag during a stupid football match? Now isn't that patriotic and admirable of you!

A group of people supposedly waving the Turkish flag is the least of our problems. Get your fugling priorities right. 

Down with the ENTIRE Islamic Republic!

that was fugly.  is it true

that was fugly.  is it true that our azari brothers were waving turkey's flag in the stands?  i hope that's just a vicious rumor.
