بیماری خود شیفتگی

جذابیت در معنای زیبایی و خوش تیپی در نظرهای گونه گون متفاوت است . برای نمونه برخی از مردان و زنان حزب الهی آقای احمدی نژاد را مردی جذاب , یعنی زیبا و خوش تیپ, می پندارند. چنین تفاوت نگاهی را در خانواده و جامعه, بسیاری از ما شاهد بوده ایم . برای نمونه آخوندها و شبه آخوند ها زنانی را جذاب می پندارند , می پسندند و دوست می دارند, که ویژگی ها ی ظاهری این زنان از نظر بسیارانی دیگر جذابیت تلقی نمی شود. در نگاه حزب الله زیبایی و جذابیت , و مظاهر آن ها گونه ای دیگر اند.>>>

وجه المقابلهً رژيم ايران با آمريکا

اگر تندروهاي حاکم در کاخ سفيد و اسرائيل بدنبال حملهً نظامي به ايران هستند، تندروهاي حاکم بر تهران بهانه ها را يکي بعد از ديگري مي تراشند. بدرستي حکومت پادگاني ولي فقيه هيچ راهي جز سر شاخ شدن با مردم ايران، و قدرت هاي منطقه اي و بين المللي ندارد. بنظر مي رسد تنها روزنه اي که براي رژيم اخيراً باز شده همان انتخاب هاشمي رفسنجاني به رياست مجلس خبرگان رهبري، در عين حفظ سمت رياست مجمع تشخيص مصلحت نظام باشد. اکنون رژيم ايران عملاً تحت مسئوليت مشترک خامنه اي و رفسنجاني است و هردوي آنها در قبال سرنوشت کشور و مردم ايران مسئولند.>>>

زايشگاه يا آسايشگاه؟

فکر می کنم کوششی در کار است که اگر «تشکيلات تهران» تصميم به ارسال پيام به «کنگره» ی در آستانهء تشکيل جبههء ملی در اروپا داشته و بصورتی تلويحی وجود آن را برسميت بشناسد، از قبل ـ با تراشيدن يک «عنصر نفوذی» که همهء خرابکاری ها و انحراف ها زير سر اوست ـ اقدام مزبور خنثی شده و از اعتبار بيافتد.>>>

Relentless Hope

Time keeps passing by and

Nothing changes

But the core of my being

Chipping away at the crap

That has accumulated on

My soul

>>>

When I need you

When I was young
As an English learner
I loved a song

I remember yet

When I need you,
Just close my eyes
Then I’m with you

The cost of war

Today, September 21st is the International Day of Peace. This day was first inaugurated on the third Tuesday of September, 1982 and the goal of International Day of Peace was to "devote a specific time to concentrate the efforts of the United Nations and its Member States, as well as of the whole of mankind, to promoting the ideals of peace and to giving positive evidence of their commitment to peace in all viable ways. It should be devoted to commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace both within and among all nations and peoples.">>>

The clash of idiots

But we in the Iranian Opposition, or for that matter, every Iranian with at least five years education, is not really surprised to see how the Seyyeds are sitting in the driving seat of one of the oldest nations of the world, and do not really know what to do. But they are only there because the people of Iran do not have any faith in civil disobedience. The Seyyed rulers know that as long as the people of Iran do not confront them with the idea of a General Strike, they can put Iran in harms way.>>>

Someone stop this train!

It has been six months that we, Iranians, are approaching a fall in the train of fate. Meanwhile people who have the power to intervene are in different conditions: Ahmadinejad: He welcomes a war. If a war begins he hopes that the world would come to his rescue and USA would be trapped in the quagmire of Iran. USA would be defeated and he and his friends would be war heroes. They could move against his rivals and get rid of all opposing factions and social groups. They would rule Iran comfortably without fear of domestic opposition.>>>

برخورد دشمنانه

کنفرانس امسال چندین ویژیگی داشت که برخی از آنها را مطرح می کنم. شرکت وسیع نسل دوم ،شرکت قابل ملاحظه مردان که بیش از سی درصد جمعیت در کنفرانس بوند ، امسال برخلاف سال گذشته کنفرانس از نخبه گرایی برحضر بود بدین خاطرتمام سخنرانان انتخابی در کنفرانس جدید بودن به غیر از یک نفر از سخنرانان که قبلاً در بنیاد سخنرانی کرده بود. آن چیزی در کنفرانسهای بنیاد معمول شده بود تعدادی از سخنرانان مثل دور قمری هر دو و سه سال یکبار دعوت می شدند تا نظرات تکراری خود را با یک مقداری کمک و زیاد مطرح کنند و از طرفی تعدادی از دوستان هم عادت کردن که یک نوع بحث را بشنوند.>>>

Voices that Radio Farda fears

To president of Radio Farda, Jeffrey Gedmin: Below please find my response to your opinion piece, Voices That Tehran Fears, in The Washington Post: Oh come on! You make it out to seem as if Radio Farda is this enlightened beacon that will save Iran and bring about freedom, democracy, and peace to Iran if only it could operate freely. The truth is your programming is mostly silly irrelevant pop songs with the occasional filler of watered down news that has little substance and reaches us here with a scratchy signal that makes it hard to listen to. >>>

A new dawn

I thought the ease of commenting could bring about substantial changes to the way that the site is used in the future. After seeing a couple of comments on one of my recreant photo-essays, I realized that the future has arrived and things have changed already. A simple calculation revealed that since the publication of the article mentioned above only 14% of posted articles managed to remain immune to comments (all articles till 18th Sep were included in this calculation). Let’s not talk statistics, but at the first glance an increase in the number of articles commented on is apparent.>>>

Opening the floodgates

First one was about people. I learned that despite the lightning speeds and freedoms of anonymity in internet communications, people are still the same people. Before that, I had imagined all along that if only the good people of Iran, who obviously all wanted to resurrect their cultural honor and advance the cause of democracy in Iran, could, and were allowed to communicate directly with each other, something would click, leaders would emerge and actions would snowball. Not so. Not so fast, anyway. If there are benefits to communicating freely and spontaneously, it will still take time>>>
