* Nabavi for president
His satirical articles cuts like a knife into the heart of dogma. He
is a subtle commentator, very funny, insightful, and most of all, brave.
May the echo of the laughter of his readers continue to deepen the crack
in the government of darkness. Humor aside, Nabavi for president!

* Wooden cross
Nabavi: Because he consistently and repeatedly challenges the establishment
and endangers his own life. His writings must feel like a wooden cross
in the heart of vampires (hardliners).

* Influential
I choose Seyd Ebrahim Nabavi as the Iranian of the year. From a political
point of view, his articles were very influential in the current reformist
movement. And from an artistic point of view, his articles show a mature
and beautiful style of writing as a satirist.

fanatics.
