by Simorgh5555 on Fri Nov 19, 2010 12:01 PM PSTI see. Brainwashing your 1/4 Iranian nephew to accept the terrorist Islamic Republic murdering regime. What an irresponsible adult you are inculcating hate and terror into the mind of small children.
Congratulations
by Anonymous Observer on Fri Nov 19, 2010 09:47 AM PSTEspecially to our women, who did well despite the medieval restrictions placed on them by Sargord Mark's objects of sexual fantasies, the IR.
SarGord Goltappeh!
by Doctor mohandes on Fri Nov 19, 2010 08:35 AM PSTThe most interesting character to have stepped onto the stage, since Adolf Hitler.
The most annoying character, with a never-before-seen ranting and raving capacity.
It baffles me sometimes whenhe can come up with just about any reason to Justify any given situation , How does he do that?
Sargord
I was watching a defense, Dept. press briefing last night on the pentagon channel ( i am sure you have that on your cable) and your name kept coming up. Could not say your name right but all the indications were there that he was talking about you... (actually it was a indian reporter who helped the guy get the correct pronounciation out..It ezz Pyrooz sir... Shargord Piroozh... yes sir)
Looks like they are about to send off on a mission or something.
better be packed up and ready hot shot.

The youth and women of Iran are the greatest source of pride for Iranians today. Bacheha motshakereem!

1) China
2) S Korea
3) Japan
4) Iran
*****************
In 1974 Tehran Asian Games, Iran's medal count ranked #2 in Asia:
1) Japan
2) Iran
3) China
4) S Korea
5) N Korea
6) Israel
//en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1974_Asian_Games
Israel has been excluded from Asian Games since 1976 due to security reasons!
I believe IRI bans women from swimming and diving events! That is very unfair!
1st clip from 2:06 min to 2:15
by kazem0574 on Fri Nov 19, 2010 05:22 AM PSTWatch the clip during the above duration, there is what I see as an interesting hesitation.
I could be wrong and probably am, but in case I am right, liked the choice of the outcome.
Congratulations to her and all of our champs. They make us proud to achieve medals under the current circumstances, its humbling.

by Fair on Thu Nov 18, 2010 09:10 PM PSTYou are absolutely right, it is only the sheer dedication and love for their sport and their country that allows these wonderful youth of Iran overcome all the difficulties (in addition to the difficulty of becoming a world class athlete in itself). This is truly impressive, and shows once again that Iranian youth are lionhearts and unstoppable. Nobody, especially the fascist pigs who call them dirt and dust and cowardly assault them, should underestimate them.
As for this two bit idiot Colonel Sanders, who can only wish he were Iranian, please don't bother with him. He has serious identity issues, and also no regard for the truth. The Russian or other athletes who live and compete abroad are professionals, and have financial and material reasons to do so. The Iranian Karateka and martial artists who live and compete and rise to such high levels abroad do so because they are DRIVEN from Iran, and their lives in the west are anything but comfortable. But what can you expect from a bevatane badbakhte beechareh keh saresh beh tanesh nemearzeh, va heech hoveyat va cheezi az Iran saresh nemeesheh. Baraye chenin mozakhrafee faghat bayad arezooye shafa kard. A truly pathetic worthless character with no country and no place to go.
Sargord,

Now, who the foreigner is speaking crap on an Iranian site?

by yolanda on Thu Nov 18, 2010 06:32 PM PSTKhadijeh Azadpour was super aggressive..like a lioness...she gave it all! I really like her fighting spirit and unstoppable momentum! Good for her! Iranian ladies are brave.....they play a big part in tearing down the tyranny!
Perpetually malcontented?
by Doctor mohandes on Thu Nov 18, 2010 06:15 PM PSTLOOOL.
The freaking difference is that they go there out of their own volition and based on fat and lucrative contracts not forced to leave due to the unfavorable political circumstances.
Takes an exilee to know other exilees, ain't it?
Che lahjeyi
by Doctor mohandes on Thu Nov 18, 2010 06:12 PM PSTLol.
Good work there girl. See you in New dehli in 2013 Olympic games.
What the heck is the meaning of being 1/4 of any ethnicity, that does not even make sense.
Well there are PLENTY of
by Sargord Pirouz on Thu Nov 18, 2010 06:13 PM PSTWell there are PLENTY of Russian sports stars living abroad. And there are PLENTY of European sports stars living outside their home countries.
But then, don't let me intrude on your perpetually malcontented "bitch and moan" sessions here on EXILED_IRANIAN.COM.
Just lemme remind you of the last gold medal winner weightlifter that flipped out a pocket sized koran at the podium. Remember that? And at this Asian game, the gold medal winner that used the IRI flag as a prayer rug and prayed. Yeah, no wannabe exile crap, there. But PLENTY here on the IC!
Fair jan,
by Hajminator on Thu Nov 18, 2010 05:45 PM PSTYou are right to highlight that with Mullahs, Mamooti and their shepeshus armed forces, all we could expect was the last place in these games.
The only reason, Iran is so well ranked, is because of our youths who try, to fill in the blanks by all means, and, to overcome the lack in many things, and that just for their love for Mehan.

باریک الله به خدیجه خانوم،
شیر زن ایرانی و مایه افتخار همه ما ایرانی ها. خوب ترتیب همشون رو دادی.
سرت که خلوت شد بیزحمت یک سر بیا اینجا و یک کتک مفصل و چند تا چک و لقد هم به این سرگرد و فک و فامیل هاش بزن!
Barikallah and Bravo Bacheha
by Fair on Thu Nov 18, 2010 02:02 PM PSTWell done, brilliant performance, I am so proud of all of you. This is history in the making, all thanks to the hard work and dream and dedication of our ahtletes, especially the women who had to overcome many stupidities in the system. Iranian women should have been allowed to win medals long ago.
Also it should be noted that the main pioneers of martial arts in Iran have all been driven out of the country, and Iran has a disproportionate number of Iranians winning accolades and rank in martial arts living in other countries. Shame on mullahs for suppressing our people's accomplishment. This all makes this accomplishment even more impressive.
Bravo.
woo-hoo!
by Sargord Pirouz on Thu Nov 18, 2010 12:46 PM PSTThis is great, isn't it? One of my nephews is proficient in martial arts, but nothing like these kids. They're amazing. I'll have to show it to him. He is 1/4 Iranian but unfortunately it is from the maternal side so he is ineligible for citizenship. (One of the reasons I voted Green in the last election was based on their pledge to change this.)
Iranians seem to do well in martial arts and weight lifting.
The most impressive
by Hajminator on Thu Nov 18, 2010 12:12 PM PSTThe most impressive is to see our guys beat Koreans and Chinese in Taekwondo! Dasteshoon dard nakoneh.
What an Achievement!
