Laleh, and Kazemzadeh

How do you explain that even the poll on iranian.com (a site banned in Iran) has only 25% of the people boycotting the election?

Do these 25% of the people think the other 75% are idiots?

It is a mathematical certainty that boycotting helps Ahmadinejad. I realize to you the difference between Mousavi and Ahmadinejad is insignificant. But it clearly isn't to most people.

You know and I know that Mousavi had absolutely nothing to do with the order to kill Mujahedeen prisoners. If you understand Iran and Khomeini's tremendous influence, nobody in no position could have stopped him.

You claim you are both opposed to the regime itself, so why is it that only one candidate (Mousavi) is getting all your criticism?

If Ahmadinejad wanted to have paid consultants help him win, I don't think he could do any better than this.

No More “Just Go with the Flow!”

IRANdokht wrote: “The people of Iran, especially the women have been pushing and trying the IRI government. They've been engaged in civil disobedience for decades now and even if you disagree that they have made improvements in the women's lives, at least they have stopped the complete backwards saudi and taliban style of treatment. That's been due to the Iranian women's efforts and nothing else.”

I agree with this statement completely. No one denies the fact that social disobedience is a form of dissent. No one is advocating an armed uprising against the regime.

I have repeatedly said this in the past and will say it again: Armed uprising of a bunch of guerrillas is no longer the normal political activism in Iran. Instead NGOs, human rights organizations, women’s groups, and workers’ unions have replaced what was the norm 30-40 years ago.

However, you must not equate any opposition to Mir-Hossein Mousavi with supporting Ahmadinejad. Just imagine for a moment where Iran would be today if thirty years ago political activists had questioned Khomeini’s vision for Iran.

Instead we all went along with the wave of the revolution. Just like sheep, we lowered our heads and followed. Iranians were told, “Support people’s choice! Otherwise, you will weaken the revolution and strengthen the Shah. Just go with the flow!”

I am saying today: No more! I am not going with the flow!

It is our patriotic duty to speak up and expose who Mir-Hossein Mousavi is. We don’t need another false dream to be sold to our people in the name of a “soft” revolution.

rad gom kardan

rad gom kardan is done when someone does not directly respond to the charges filed, as those charges directed to mousavi and other conspirators cited in this blog.

is there anyone who thinks that mousavi was not knowledgeable of these summary executions? does anyone think that mousavi knew about these executions and opposed it? does anyone think that mousavi thinks that these actions were unjustified? can someone explain why so many politicians (mousavi, karoubi, rafsanjani, mousavi ardebili, ....) who were complicit in these executions and the central core of the hardliners now call themselves reformers? can anyone cite a reform under a so-called reform government?

if you can directly answer to these questions or related matter, than you're not committing rad gom kardan.

Although it might come as a surprise, the idea of civil disobedience was not invented by Reza joon ;-) you know I like my prince and I would have given him the credit, but it'd be a little too transparent....

I do not recall  Dr Parsi advocating or even trying to send any messages that would count as interfering in the country's internal affairs, except for human rights issues. If you mean the link that I provided: Dr Parsi showed proof that AIPAC was trying to get AhmadiNejad reelected... and why not?! With AN representing Iranians, our friend Netanyahu's dream would come true within a few months.

The people of Iran, especially the women have been pushing and trying the IRI government. They've been engaged in civil disobedience for decades now and even if you disagree that they have made improvements in the women's lives, at least they have stopped the complete backwards saudi and taliban style of treatment. That's been due to the Iranian women's efforts and nothing else.

If you look at the videos and pictures, you'll see that women have taken campaigning a step further this year. Students are speaking up with more courage, people are signing V for victory on the streets etc...  If you had seen Iran between 1980-mid nineties, you would have known that this is BIG! This type of social behavior and the excitement they show on the streets happened a few times sporadically before, but they are stopped eventually and every time the brave Iranians are taking it further and further.

These are the steps they are taking without any guidance or even help from the opposition abroad. Actually one might argue that the opposition has only slowed down Iranian people with their mixed signals and erroneous suggestions.

Irandokht Since When did NIAC suggest Civil Dissobedience ? ;0)

You Mean Irandokht that Trita Parsi is now repeating What Reza Pahlavi has been suggesting from the begining in his Book Winds of Change and again in his latest Book L'heure Du Choix ?

//www.payvand.com/news/09/jun/1103.html

Interesting, Very Interesting ...

Well he is always Welcome to Join His King !

All the More that he is a Zoroastrian ... Like fellow Parsi Conductor Zubin Mehta :

Unless of course he has switched to Islam ...

Irandokht

Why do you refuse to face the facts? Why does any form of disagreement with you and those who hold the same position as you, is interepreted as warmongering, rioting and killing of iranians inside? Why such reactionary way of looking at things?

! yes we know and we see the images, articles, blogs and etc. we see the young people in action. But what took place under mousavi, with such elaborate sources quoted by LG and several other places, Are still intact. WHy denying those and why "rad gom kardan" by repeating the same things over and over?

I don't see anyone advocating for any kinda of bloodbath here on this blog. how you see that is truly amazing to me, perhaps you have a sixth or seventh sense and can see things no one else can?

In case you forgot, There are other iranians who do not think they should either be with them or against them and stay out of there way. Are you going to tell me that they are not true iranians due to their positions? So there respect that you insist on, must go both ways for those who agree and those who disagree with what is going on currently.

Excellent Article

Dear Ms. Gillani,

Thank you for another excellent and informative article. The reformist leaders of the fundamentalist oligarchy are deceiving the young. These reformist fundamentalists are responsible for crimes against humanity against the Iranian people.

That charlatan murderer Mousavi calling another charlatan murder Ahmadinejad, "liar" is like our saying: "seer be piyaz migeh piif boo midi" [garlic says to onion: yukes you stink]. BOTH Mousavi and Ahmadinejad are liars as is their master Ayatollah Khomeini.

I think if Ahmadinejad wins, he will begin a major violent attack on Rafsanjani, his family, Khatami, and others in the reformist wing of the fundamentalist oligarchy. If Mousavi wins, I expect to see increased tension and paralysis among factions within the oligarchy.

I don’t know which one would be worse for the fundamentalist regime. I think it would be best for the opposition to stay away from the internal power struggles among the various fundamentalist thugs. Let them kill each other. THEIR fights are NOT our fights.

Best regards,

Masoud

Has the Truth Become Inconvenient?

Voting for a government insider who has the blood of thousand of Iranians on his hands isn’t civil disobedience. Quite to the contrary! It is falling for a trap laid by the regime.

If this election isn’t about Mousavi, let’s make it about him. It is our responsibility as patriots to know what we are doing, whom we are endorsing and trusting.

My voice outside Iran is only an echo of the voices inside Iran. The fact that I live outside Iran doesn’t make me any more or less credible.

helping Ahmadinejad get re-elected

Congress Decided Against Aiding Ahmadinejad's Campaign (Ahmadinejad's Little Helpers)

Trita Parsi speaks of a bill sponsored by AIPAC that would have aided Ahmadinejad's campaign and US Congress decided to dump it.

//www.huffingtonpost.com/trita-parsi/ahmadine...

but his little helpers on Iranian.com continue to persist...

Dear Laleh,

This is not about Mousavi, it's not about Islam, it's not about velayat Faghih!

This is people of Iran engaged in civil disobedience and showing the government that they can unite and they can have a voice. 

They have chosen their path and those people you see in the videos and pictures are the ones who will live with the consequences of these elections.

Apparently you think you know better than millions of people, maybe you do, maybe you don't. But you don't have to live with the consequences of their decision. Unfortunately they are also the ones would have to live with the  bloodbath that you are advocating, not you.

I support their choice, if I had to live in Iran, I would have picked a slower progress over your suggested path too and I think all of us who do not live in Iran should either support them or stay out of their way.

I should add that once you move to Iran and speak about your uprising from there, I would cheer you on too but until then, please respect Iranians wishes.
