Bombs have no brainsIn response to Farrokh Ashtiani's "Iran under siege": I have always enjoyed Mr. Ashtiani's witty and highly intelligent articles. They are quite thought provoking, entertaining yet raise many good points. I have never watched any Republican's speech including George W. I am not interested I what they have to say. However, I am dead serious and concern since he took office that Israel would surprise us by attacking Iran's supposedly Nuclear facilities. I despise stupid Iranians (a handful of Monarchists of course) who are pro Bush and want Iran to be attacked. They are stupid enough to think that the bombs have eyes an brains (like theirs) to identify the big shots of the IRI and target them and wipe them off the face of the earth.Do these people realize how clever the mullahs are? Did anyone pay attention to the small leakage of information (pushed under the rug quickly) that exposed the mullahs role in setting up United Sates so they would definitely go to war? In case you missed it and did not realize that as tax payers you all paid millions of dollars (I think the figure was $300 million) to Ahmad Chalabi who was United States most reliable source (and the only one in reality) who was supposedly getting top secret information from Iraqi dissents and those inside Iraq. It turn out that the mullahs were feeding Chalabi info about Sadam having Weapons of Mass Destruction! Well, you do the math. As for the Iranian websites, my colleagues and I (mostly middle-age men and women) read them and laugh out loud. Have you noticed that some brothers look like they are in the 70s yet they say "I am 50 years old" and they think because a bottle of Just for Men has covered their few strands of hair, they actually look ten years younger! The best part is their age requirements. Most 50 something men ask for women 28 to 35 years old! If you read their credentials (we read them loud so everyone can have a good laugh) there are none and they say things like "I am honest and want a woman with a good heart". Fair enough, but no indication of what makes a good heart. I also always laugh at their mask of "spirituality". A true spiritual person does not walk around and say 'I am spiritual". He or she shows with their acts and how they treat other human beings. By the way, you be surprised to know that in my community there was a girl everyone called Beast. I often argued with men and women calling her that. She has a high school degree and talking to her you will see she is not very bright. However, she found a husband (from Iran) that would make your jaw drop. He is a good looking young doctor and treats her like gold! Also, a few of middle-aged Iranian women (not professionals) who are in the trade industry such as alteration and so on have also found good looking Iranian men from Iran . I am certain most of these brothers marry them so hey can come to the United States. That is why I have said no to a 40 something year old dentist and 38 year old good looking surgeon (they both were visiting form Europe). They claimed they were just smitten by me! Right! The fact that I am a US citizen and could get them the Green Card and helped them later on to have lucrative careers did not cross their minds of course. I just have a ball every time one of these young and beautiful girls from Iran (married to brothers twice their ages) get themselves settled and then get half the assets and leave the brothers. I blow kisses in the air to our beautiful expression "khod kardera tadbir neest" and "eshghe piree garbojanbad sar berosvaee zanad". It tickles me to death that I am able to speak such majestic language. How blessed I am to be able to converse in this magnificent language everyday (for the most part). What is the consolation to the short, bald and homely looking brother? They gets to have a beautiful young and vibrant body all to himself for a short while. Well, thank you for the very insightful article. I really enjoyed it.
