by Dariush (not verified) on Thu May 08, 2008 08:21 AM PDTKavidar you showed in the link you attached just what kind of freedom and democracy Monarchies and new breed of Monarchies like you have planned for Iran. I am so glad you are cheering for Pahlavis. This is what you all were doing in Iran in the 50 years being in power. Swinging your families with each others!
I called you new breed of monarchies a few days ago in respond to you in another blog. This proved I was right about you.
Reality Shot!!!
by Mansoor (not verified) on Thu May 08, 2008 08:11 AM PDTThe video date has no importance. Regardless of the subject & the timing just follow the logic & the wisdom in the speech & also notice the "hallucinating" faces around him!! This man, almost at his grave, is devoid of any leadership quality & only can be a "Rahbar'e Mow-Azam" in a country where its so called revolution was led by a 79 yrs-old!! man when he came to power. As it is well said in Farsi "Taj Cone va Bar Sar Go-zar" or in English "Make a Shining Crown out of Him & Carry it on Your Head!!"

I tell myself ...Are you kidding ...Emperor Khamenei by watching bith his diet and his deit he is gonna push ruling his empire all the way to age 90--Look at his eyebrow...you can't find even a single grain of white or gray hair in it...
Emperor Khamenei in charge of Hakhamaneshian Empire in continuous expansion well beyond the lebenon territory ...
It's Islamic Republic. Deal with it!
by Anonymous2 (not verified) on Thu May 08, 2008 07:47 AM PDTWhat do you expect him to say? He's the head of I.R. He's also an Ayatollah and supposedly a "marjaie-taghlid." Do you want him to say that music and dancing is okay and should be promoted? Do you really think if he was really against promotion of music in universities, he couldn't stop it?
People expect him to say things like that, even though they know and he knows that they cannot stop it.
outdated video
by negar on Thu May 08, 2008 06:57 AM PDTcalm down people. as someone else pointed out, this clip is a few years old - dating back to Khatami's presidency. if this was even half serious, music had been banned from the universities by now. obviously he's just picking on Moein, the minister of higher education at the time, for ignoring the mandates that the "shoraaye eslaami saazie daneshgah ha" came up with. it's all politics.
Some say he is depressed ... ;0)
by Darius Kadivar on Thu May 08, 2008 03:57 AM PDTI heard that he was going through ups and downs lately and isolating himself to recover, and wakes up only to be a party booper and ruin the show.

Weep at what we did to ourselves in 1979!
by Anonymouss (not verified) on Wed May 07, 2008 10:41 PM PDTWhat a disgrace for a country like iran, with its rich history, and with so many intelligent people, that are successful anywhere but inside iran.
See what you did in 1979 and whom you brought to power; someone from 7th century to rule you as if it is 14 centuries ago in arabia.
May god damn khomeini, who cursed the nation for 30 years with nothing but lies and deceits, and his stateless thugs who sold out iran so cheaply. I bet khomeini is laughing on his ugly hendi stomach at his then and now followers, while dancing duet with the devil in the hell.
We ruined our beautiful fertile country starting in 1979!

by Bahram the Iranian on Wed May 07, 2008 08:47 PM PDTanybody who is going to make a comment on his words should first listen to the whole clip and then pass judgment. this must be few years old when Khatamei was persident (no commrnt).
What about poverty, drug addiction, crime in Iran?
by Anonymous-AZ (not verified) on Wed May 07, 2008 08:05 PM PDTIs music the only problem in Iran? I hate this Mullah, he is a disgrace to us Azeris. I'm ashamed that he is from Azerbaijan, the place where Babak Koramdin and sattar kahn was its heros. He has Qajar's blood.
This was said in 1875,and it still applies to our land.

by Parthian on Wed May 07, 2008 05:49 PM PDTwho have an economic stake in the regime, such as those degenerates selling great satan's products that has gone through 5 middlemen want the regime to "EVOLVE". This regime needs to be destroyed. Any student of human history knows that these sort of regimes don't evolve, they DEVOLVE. Pretty soon, Iranian people will become monkeys! sorry to say it, but to some extent, we have become worst than monkeys. You don't see monkeys hanging and executing their children, while the rest of tribe watches gleefully!

by Alborzi (not verified) on Wed May 07, 2008 04:32 PM PDTIn all the religions there are asinine beliefs.

The Jews have difficult laws for being kosher and some sects even make their women shave their head. The problem is not the specifics of his beliefs, Iranians have put up with more autocratic regimes, the problem is not having an intelligent, honorable, trust worthy opposition.

This is the ultimate oppression that kills any hope of a future. The most unwise of all leaders are the iranian molllaa and they will go nowhere as you have witnessed in the past few hundred years. The worry is where they are taking the nation with them!

There is only one destiny for a MARDOM AZAR regime: Downfall!
by farrad02 on Wed May 07, 2008 04:29 PM PDTFirst of all, I agree with Ben Madadi's comment.
Secondly, don't be upset people!
This radicalism is taking the Islamic Republic regime right down the path of their destiny! A regime that pressures the people (especially the youth) of a country and insists on annoying and distressing people constantly (MARDOM AZARI) can only have one destiny! DESTRUCTION! Let them do these things and say these things. No foreign intervention is necessary! They will self destruct in due time! And I'm afraid the results will be unknown (other words, don't bet on someone better replacing them either!)
And believe it or not, Khamenei is not the worst of them. He is considered a moderate! There are leaders in this ruling coalition (Mesbah-e Yazdi and his followers - like Ahmadinejad - leading among them) who put Khamenei to shame! He looks liberal comparing with Mesbah and his follwers!
And this did sort of surprise me because I know of Khamenei's background playing Persian TAR and dabbling in poetry, etc. So, for him to express such views, is either the metamorphysis induced by absolute power (as someone suggested below in another comment) or a sign that he has been smoking too much high grade opium!
Music & Singing are Lawful ...
by Mona 19 on Wed May 07, 2008 04:16 PM PDTThis wonderful age has rent asunder the veils of superstition. Blessed Beauty Has made it Lawful to listen to Music.
Singing and Music are the spiritual food of the hearts and souls....Music is one of the arts that is highly approved and is considered to be the cause of the exaltation of sad and desponding hearts.

by sz (not verified) on Wed May 07, 2008 03:18 PM PDTThe irony is that in days prior to losing the feeling in his right hand after an unsuccessful assassination attempt the music averse “Dear Leader” of today was a decent musician. His Mashhadi friends prior to revolution recall along with the habit of puffing on tobacco pipe and other more illicit smokes his fondness for playing music, reciting Hafez and composing poetry.
