Every time they ask for rights for Iranians in Iran from US soil, ask them to stop travel banning us, sanctioning us, not allowing us to publish apps to the Apple store, etc. right here where they live instead.
It’s amazing how much they care about Ruhollah Zam and some murdering wrestler guy when they seem to not care how badly they’ve hurt us under their Trump.
They think we are as stupid as them. 😉
‘Nasrin’ Documentary Spotlights Life And Work Of Jailed Iranian Human Rights Lawyer

Weakened after five weeks surviving on water, tea and salt, Sotoudeh was transferred to a hospital late last month. Tests showed her heart had been damaged but authorities sent her back to prison without needed care, her husband Reza Khandan tells NPR from Tehran.
“The main thing that worries me,” he says, is “what if all these things cause her to have a heart attack?”
Khandan has been a vocal campaigner for the release of his wife. He has criticized Iran’s human rights record on Facebook. After being sentenced to a six-year prison term for “conspiracy against national security,” he is now out on bail.
“I’m not a fighter, I am not the revolutionary in the family,” he says. “But I have to seek justice for Nasrin.”
Don’t worry, Iran will free Palestine and Yemen shortly.
The New York Times, a US based paper, writes considerably about Iranian’s benefits and rights thousands of miles away in Iran.
Meanwhile, it neglects the abuses it has committed upon Iranian heritage people with even US citizenship based on these same campaigns.
Where is the article about Bijan Ghaisar? Where is the concern over detaining US citizens when Trump illegally murdered Shahid Soleimani?
No one at the New York Times wants to call the BDS of the Iranian people for 40 years as grave of an issue as they will refer to a stubbed toe in Tel Aviv or pretend to care about Ruhollah Zam, who they knew nothing about.
They are agenda driven, and we know by who. Ask the Monarchist’s favorite stooge:
Same Zionist agenda. Even many of the brainwashed Monarchists have woken up by now.
“Zionism” is equal to “Pan Arabism”. Pan Arabism initiated by Jamal Abdul Naser back in 50’s. These are the same people who has been trying to change the name of Persian Gulf since Jamal Abul Naser’s time.
There is a Jewish nationalism similar to Arab nationalism. It is called ‘Zionism” it comes from the word “Zion” means ZONE or territory. In the Arab’s mindset, It is okay for them to have Arab nationalism, but it is NOT okay Jews to have nationalism.
Who says that ?
Palestinians who was born and raised in Dearborn, Michigan. Dear born Michigan is a reservation area for Arabs. We have had a couple of those people on Iranian sites before. One was by nik name of N.P.
All these noises are coming from there.
I really don’t understand why Arabs come on Iranian sites, hiding behind fake user names and bad mouth Israel.?
I really don’t understand why.
These idiots should go to Arab’s sites and bad mouth Israel. There are 27 Arab nations on the planet. They can go there. Why Iranian sites ?
Iranians have nothing to do with conflict between Arabs and Israeli.
We are Persians. We don’t speak Arabic, we speak Farsi. Unlike Arabs who are Sunni, we are NOT sunni, we are all Shia (93%). So what give these idiots permission to come on Iranian sites and bad mouth Israel. ?
We never go to Arab sites to bad mouth criminal mullahs, so why do they come on Iranian sites ?
I have a hunch that these idiots are getting brainwashed by western media. They watch American T.V and see handful of Mullahs’ sons and relatives burn U.S or Israeli flag, so they think to hate America or Israel is typical Iranian mindset. Then they decide to come on Iranian sites with fake user names and bad mouth Israel or Jews.
Funny part is these idiots have NO clue about Iran’s history and culture beside “Ghormeh Sabzi”.
For example, they do NOT know that Israel’s Operation Opera by Israel air force saved the life of thousands Iranian families. They also do NOT know that our king Cyrus the Great saved jews from slavery 2 times in the history.Therefore, they do NOT know Israel is strategic ally of Iranian people against Arab world. Thanks Israel. Was that “Zionist” who mastermind Operation Opera and saved Iranians lives ?
if it was Zionist, thanks zionist.
Below is an educational link for above commentator.

Zionism is equal to Christian evangelism + European colonialism as exploited by Ashkenazi White Supremacists empowered by corporate criminal multinational European syndicates.
And you are = to your other name replying below, so I won’t bother with your “multiple personalities”, Obsolete Kahanist Olagh. 😀
Agenda of Hezbollahi cyberbasij scum, Nazi malignant kants is Fascism, with a Islamic face, with a Shia sect Islamic face, with an old Persian man “Islamic” face,…
Needless to say that we, Iranian people will crush every single one of you religious thug cockroaches, like the crumble little pests that you are.
Away with all pests!
Can you listen to people in Iran chanting: “Marg Bar Hezbollah.”
How does it make you feel?
Does it make your head wanna explode?
Listen to it a couple of times, perhaps your head might actually explode.
مرگ بر حزب الله
Hezbollah kicked Israel’s ass sideways in 2006 and probably makes the UAE/Saudi lizard eaters wet their beds at night. Lebanon was freed from a 20 year Israeli occupation by them.
Shahid Soleimani obliterated your pathetic ISIS, a bizarro Hezbollah TTP emulation.
And then you idiots caused the US to get itself kicked out Iraq while you’re standing on a banana peel currently with your coups-d’etats orange dotard.
