Results of US invasion of Iraq

21-Mar-2008 (39 comments)
Iraq was occupied by the US-led troops from March 20 to May 1, 2003. Five years have passed since the Bush administration launched the war on terror beginning with the campaign entitled "Operation Iraqi Freedom" to topple the Saddam regime in Iraq. Yet the panoramic picture of Iraq continues to remain in a sombre situation. The US was yet to reach its target to “disarm” Saddam Hussein’s regime of weapons of mass destruction in the fight against “terrorism”, but nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons were never found in Iraq after the military occupation>>>

In English, there is only one standard way of saying Happy New Year. In French, Bonne Annee, etc. Should Farsi-speaking Iranians use one standard spelling?

Every year JJ would have a voting page and some candidates for Iranian of the year. Seems like this year he forgot or he was "busy" :-) So until he makes a page who is your Iranian Of the Year? >>>

Sign Language as second language

It’s cool. He’s deaf, and I don’t need to talk so he’ll never know I have an accent

I am in a line at my bank. The Brazilian and the Italian teller are busy with the customers who crane their necks to grasp what the tellers are saying in their thick accents. The quickest of tellers—a short, stout young man who doesn’t have an accent—a real Canadian—with short dyed blond spikes, is not in today. There is a sign on his counter: CLOSED. I look at my watch. The Italian and the Brazilian take their time. Keep talking. I’ll have to grab something to eat on my rush to class. They don’t care. They just shoot bland smiles at the impatient customers like me. I see a hand waving at me from behind a desk at the other end of the counter. It belongs to a new teller—a young Chinese man who stands now behind the desk where new accounts are handled>>>
