Why is everyone so anti
by Khebedin on Sun Dec 04, 2011 05:23 PM PSTWhy is everyone so anti Brits?. To be fair, I consider them better than any other country when it comes to their relation with Iran, or any other country. Uk is the only country who plays by the rules, where others don't have this ability hence fight you. They are good Chess playes, if you want to win them, learn to play better. Throughout history they have always respected those who played the game better. India ( Gandi), Africa ( Mogabe) and so many other places. They accept to be beaten throgh the game of law.

I like British
by عموجان on Sun Dec 04, 2011 02:43 PM PSTOver all effect of relation between Iran and England been positive for Iran. It is not their fault we have betrayer among us, they are only after their own interest. Aren’t we? I know Mullahs are.
Western influences on Iran always help us to move forward than Arab influence, they even try to change our langue, remember.
Most effected by this new event is Mojtaba, he can’t get to his money,he got to look for job now, I feel bad for him.
Good points JJ
by Veiled Prophet of Khorasan on Sun Dec 04, 2011 12:45 PM PSTI agree with Shah; nuclear; isolation; Khamenei. But there are a few things I don't agree with you.
Having said these I would be happier if both Khamenei and AN were gone.
2011 vs. 1951
by comments on Sun Dec 04, 2011 12:33 PM PSTOur main problem is that IRI sustains its stability because of its isolation.
The concept of dictator in 2011 is different from primitive 1951. The similarity is minimal. Human rights and rights of women/wives had almost no meaning in 1951. World has changed and also scientific research in humanities. Shall we remember the position of black in the US and less intelectual individuals in Germany at the time?
As well, Pahlavis are not the same. The Pahlavi family are more experienced and understanding of human/Iranian needs. I personaly don't believe that they are looking for power. They care about Iran and Iranians.

1951 is not 2011
by Jahanshah Javid on Sun Dec 04, 2011 07:53 AM PSTThings looks eerily similar to 60 years ago. If we go beyond the similarities, though, there are important differences. Khamenei is not Mohammad Reza Pahlavi. Ahmadinejad is not Mossadegh. Oil is not uranium.
Khamenei is a religious dictator who hates Western powers and thrives in isolation. Pahlavi was a secular dictator installed by Western powers and developed strong international ties.
Ahmadinejad is a maniac who is ultimately a loyal servant of the Islamic Republic. Mossadegh was an aristocrat who tried to steer Iran towards a democracy.
Oil was and is Iran's most essential industry. Nuclear power is not essential. Unless the true aim is to build bombs.
1951 is not 2011.
