So sad...
by RJ on Sun Jun 27, 2010 10:26 AM PDTAfter 30 years there are people who are talking about suitcases of dollars. How sad people don't open their eyes. You lot made a grave mistake now after 30 years own up to it. Look at the facts, compare the country today to what it could have been had we had another 30 years of progress. A country burgled by a bunch thieves. Addiction and unemployment at unbearable levels, you are still quoting the propaganda from 30 years ago. No wonder we have an idiot as our president. Please open your eyes and be just to what's happening around you.
DK jaan I watched all the clips Very nice Thanks Good collection

DARKEST DAY OF OUR HISTORY.
by free vs islam on Tue Jun 22, 2010 12:55 PM PDTIt was shameful to witness destruction of my country and it was shameful to witness how we destroyed our culture and way of life and freedom and our pride been demolished with bunch of Zealous inhuman and satanic ideology which vast majority kept quit and one of them would me and since that dark day we all Iranian suffered and it is shame we have never been wise and evolved enough to digest the reality of the life and politics and it is shame to western country to call themselves friend of Iranian people who planted the monsters in our beloved country for their national interest.
The departure day of our king should be mourning day for all Iranian in country and worldwide and we should put it as a national mourning day for all Iranian.
The jubilation was unbelievable for a very, very short time
by Irani Irani on Mon Jun 21, 2010 09:05 AM PDTAs the Islamist Rapists consolidated their hold on power, they executed an exponentially greater number of Iranians in the course of a few years than the Shah had in 38 years, imposed mandatory "Islamization" (as interpreted by the Islamist Rapists themselves, of course), including medieval punishments of stoning adulterers to death, flogging people 80 times, chopping off limbs, raping teenage girls in prison and then executing them, sparking and prolonging a devastating 8-year war with Iraq with the Islamist's insistence on "exporting the revolution" (which means exporting raping, killing, stoning, etc), pauperized Iranian society (the average Iranian's income is significantly lower now than it was in the 1970s) etc. In short, the past 31 years have been unparalleled alright--unparalleled in the degree of murder, violence, and barbarity visited upon the Iranian people by their leaders.
BTW, Mark Pirooz (aka Phoney "Sargord" Pirouz of the First Rapist Regime Cyber Propaganda Brigade), how's the view of Tehran's jubiliation from your home in the U.S.?
But sargord, isn't it the day that your mommy and daddy also
by fooladi on Mon Jun 21, 2010 08:36 AM PDTpacked their bags and left Iran for US in a hurry?
Wow man, that makes you nearly 60 years old... reading your comments I thought you were 16!
Remember what a joyous day
by Sargord Pirouz on Mon Jun 21, 2010 08:32 AM PDTRemember what a joyous day that was for Tehran? The jubilation was unparalleled in Iranian history, with the possible exception of the return of Khomeini.
We were 20/21, right DK?
