ReportWhat is a big deal about an Iranian marrying an American? And since when a "politician" is considered “interesting"?
By the way, Said Amin has appeared. He left a comment 19 hours ago. Phew!!! I thought he was kidnapped or something (because of his enormous "material" wealth _ I don't think he gives a darn about personality or "ethical" wealth :-)

Report...A bitter pill to swallow for us that many eminent Iranians have ditched us by changing names and hiding behind in order not to show their Iranian background. This became an imperative for many during the hostage crisis but what about now? I wouldn't bet a cup of coffee on these newbies as Iranian clout...

ReportSO WHAT & WHO CARES A DAMN? He could very well be as a true!?! Iranian as any of the 'Shahs of Sunset,' as Trita Parsi of NIAC, as 'we know who' on this site, or as Jack the Ripper of UK whose real identity as a British- Iranian has not been disclosed yet!

ReportI don't see any sense of Persian pride in this, and here is why: He has changed a very easy to pronounce, 100% Persian first name to Brian, and modified a Persian last name "Vala Nahad" in order to camouflage his ethnic identity. Others with Iranian descent have purposely even defied their ancestral stock including Andre Agassi. Obviously that's their choice. But it would be deplorable for anyone to pride on superficies of this sort.

ReportLet's go with assigning the nickname "Asghar Vahshi" اصغر وحشی to all the superficial Iranians for making real 'Beriani Kabob' کباب بریانی out of their pretenses!

ReportCould not agree with you more. And who else in the world would have got married with such an ugly looking woman except a 100% superficial so-called Iranian suffering from Attention Deficient Disorder to get some attentions out of his own crowd. Who else, seriously?
