As I reflect on what Bush and the neoconservatives have done to/in Iraq, it reminds me of a makeover show. But instead of a person a country is being made over; too look good according to the standards of white super rich middle aged Christian men. >>>

WAR

Lost in the garden of deceits

The immorality of attacking Iran

20-Sep-2007 (30 comments)
The call for war against Iran was issued by no other than Mr. Bernard Kouchner the foreign minister of France, a country with the motto of Liberty, Equality and Fraternity. France the home of Voltaire and Rousseau is now calling for war against a country that has never threatened France or its neighbours. France a nuclear power with illustrious colonial past is urging others to be aware of the dangers that nuclear weapons pose. From the other side of the Atlantic we hear the same cries for more war, death and destruction.>>>

تازه چشم‌هایم در حال گرم شدن بود که احساس کردم کسی پهلویم دراز کشید. سایه‌اش را دیدم. نمی‌دانم چقدر طول کشید، ولی مطمئناً زیاد نبود. یکباره احساس کردم که زمین زیر پایم به لرزه در آمده است. با هراس از خواب پریدم. بغل‌دستی‌ام دچار تشنج شده بود. سرش به عقب افتاده بود و خر و خر می‌کرد. دست‌پاچه شده بودم. نیم‌خیز شدم. ابتدا فکر کردم که دچار حمله‌ی صرع شده است و خواستم کمکش کنم. نگاه کردم، دیدم پاهایش تا زانو باندپیچی شده و خون‌آلودند. ناگهان به خود آمدم. به سرعت متوجه‌ی اشتباهم شدم. او سیانور خورده بود و حالا مجرای تنفسی‌اش دچار مشکل شده بود. دست و پا می‌زد و جان می‌داد.>>>

Iranian opposition groups in the US are self-serving, abusive, ignorant, and equally tyrannical. I get a lot of heat for this so I’ll just state it in as many blunt and straight-forward terms as I can. First, this is based on currently opposition groups based outside of the US. There might be one which pops up which I support, but this is currently based upon those I’ve talked to and had involvement with. Second, I believe in human rights and the promotion of human rights. >>>

The Iran conundrum

Interestingly enough, the Islamic regime has no fear of foreign invasion

20-Sep-2007 (12 comments)
Underneath all conquests and expansions, underneath all the frivolous wars over religious differences, underneath all the oppression and tyranny, underneath all the motives of greed for wealth, underneath all the wars over injustices, lies one single drive: to dominate. The passion to dominate, control and rule over one's fellow humans is an ancient impulse. It goes back to prehistoric times when certain individuals had the desire to force their will upon those around them. The Islamic Republic of Iran is not an exception to this rule. >>>

An analysis of the effect of abandoned or unprofessional persian blogs on the world wide web: In the late 90s, I took an HTML programming class at Evergreen Valley College in San Jose. Back in those days if you wanted to create a website, you had to know some programming. Ok, there was MS Frontpage, but it would have been a sin to mention it in a job interview, so it was best to learn HTML. I was very fascinated with the 1970s TV series Space 1999 on the one hand, and with Italo Disco music on the other. >>>

POETRY

The pomegranate tree at the very back

From poetry collection, The Lover

a pomegranate orchard paints the ground
behind these stone-walled gardens

step outside from time to time
and take a walk along the trees
who silently wait for your attention

آخرین تانگو

فقط برای این آمده ای که از یاد من بکاهی ولی نمی توانی

از دیشب که از سر کار بر گشتم به فکر دیدن دوباره فیلم آخرین تانگو در پاریس افتادم .یک حس خوبی در دیدن دوباره ی آن به من دست می دهد و شاید هم این بهانه ای باشد که از تو بنویسم .با صدای گوشی ام از خواب بیدار می شوم ولی از خستگی دوباره به رویا می روم .پرنده کوچکی از دی شب لانه اش را کنار پنجره ام درست کرده و با نوکش دائما به شیشه می زند و من این دفعه بیدار می شوم .>>>
