Intellectual masturbation? not bad. Let me come up with one...how about ideological ejaculation? or political moaning and yes, Green foreplay. Oh, Ben, I love when you talk dirty; you naughty boy.
Wait a minute; you do have your partisan condom on, don't you?
I'm not playing your game
by benross on Fri Sep 25, 2009 06:23 PM PDTI'm not playing your game dear Faghaan. You want to encourage readers to satisfy themselves with intellectual masturbation and chatting. My interest is to discuss an alternative to Islamic regime.
But keep revealing the truth. People may end-up regretting not revolting against the Shah thirty years ago.
Long Time No see; Ben

Yes

Of course I'm asking a metaphoric question here; we all know that His Majesty was not an avid reader. He was good, actually very good, on the subject of oil and military stuff.
He was , however, totally-and I mean f...ing absolutely totally-divorced from the subject of liberal and humanity studies. And it didn't take long before the whole nation suffered a great catasrophe for his lack of interest in that subject. Couldn't He at least pretend? Damn it.
I leave our outstanding argument over Pahlavi's wealth for another time.
