Q & A

اهمیت رفتار مردم در 22 بهمن

پرسش و پاسخ

09-Feb-2010 (4 comments)
روز 22 بهمن معترضین سبز به خیابان خواهند آمد و خواسته های خود را بیان خواهند کرد. باید دید که اکثریت آنها چه خطی را دنبال خواهند کرد و چه شعارهایی خواهند داد. آیا به دنبال ساختار شکنی، درگیری با نیروهای انتظامی و تصرف مراکز حساس حکومت خواهند بود؟ یا اینکه به توصیه رهبران سبز گوش خواهند داد و از قانون اساسی فراتر نخواهند رفت و شعار براندازی نخواهند داد. البته 22 بهمن آخرین ایستگاه این قطار نیست. روزهای دیگری هم خواهند بود. ولی 22 بهمن شرایط حرکت بعدی را تعیین خواهد کرد>>>

 استقلال، آزادی، جمهوری ایران

بسوی اتحاد گسترده ایرانیان دمکرات برای بزیر کشیدن نظام ولایت فقیه

شعار های ما انعکاسی از مطالبات و خواسته های متنوع هموطنان مان است. این که عده ای ممکن است بعضی شعار ها را “نپسندند” مشکل آنهاست. شاید بهتر باشد این افراد ظرفیت خود را برای شنیدن صدا های متنوع و گاه متفاوت افزایش دهند. چرا که خواست مهم جنبش ما احترام به آزادی بیان و نهادینه کردن فرهنگ دمکراتیک و چند صدایی است. اگر به انقلاب 57 نظر بیاندازیم، آنچه که از آنروز تا به امروز قابل مشاهده است: عدم تحمل نظر مخالف بوسیله کسانی است که در موقعیت قدرت قرار میگیرند>>>

Monster’s Last Bout

Blood dripping from
Gaping mouth:
Wounded monster
Musters one last bout.  
Slippery fingers, crooked hands
Grasp brittle branches
Of a dead tree’s
Timorous stance >>>

Dog is God

"Perfect time to get a dog, right Daddy?"

09-Feb-2010 (10 comments)
Last summer I got a dog. I wasn't planning on it, it just sort of happened. I had been thinking about a dog for years. As a child, my father had gotten us one, while we were living in Algeria, his assignment as a technical engineer exchange program for the National Iranian Oil Company. We lived in a beach-side residential area on the southern Mediterranean, and the puppy we got, Alfor, was very soon bitten by a wild dog roaming the sand dunes, rabid as it turned out, and after a week or so, Alfor showed up outside our house again, but with the telltale signs of foam at the mouth, dirty, bloody, exhausted, and unresponsive to our calls>>>
