Can't keep my promise, mother
by Bahai Student
24-Aug-2007
 

Since 1979, the government of Iran has systematically sought to deprive its largest religious minority of the right to a full education. Specifically, the Islamic Republic of Iran has for more than 25 years blocked the 300,000-member Bahai community from higher education, refusing young Bahais entry into university and college.

Eventually, in response to an international outcry over this oppressive behavior, the government officially announced in late 2005 that it would drop the declaration of religious affiliation on the application for the national university entrance examination. Consequently, the Bahai students could take the examination in 2004 and 2005.Yet, later in the admission procedure, Bahai youth were passed over and not accepted.

In 2006, for the first time in 29 years, more than 200 Bahai students could enter national universities. However, from the very beginning of the school year, gradually most of these students were expelled according to a previously planned strategy.

This year (2007), however the government has employed a new tactic. Most Bahai students have not yet received their test report cards. Not receiving their results, they are now even unaware of their scores and the fact that whether they have passed the test or not.

According to the web site of the national Educational Measurement and Evaluation Organization (EMEO), 800 Bahai students whose report cards are not issued lack enough documentation. Contact have been made with those officials in charge; nevertheless, no reasonable answer was given. Right now, the Bahai students who have not been informed of their exam results face an unclear situation

When I was a child, I talked about my dreams with my mother. One day I wanted to be a teacher; the other day; a scientist or a physician. My mother would look at me and tell me "try to love everybody. Whatever you become, try to help others."

So, seven years ago when I decided to become a physician, I was sure that I would treat my patients with love. Days have passed and I have learnt a lot. At first, the dream of becoming a physician was the most real and beautiful dream of my life. However, later I got to know my mother who was denied to finish the final semester of her studies at university. I saw my brothers who could not even take the entrance exam of national university.

Then, one day I heard the hopeful voice of one my friends who had a new story for me. He told me of his courses, of the entrance exam that he was going to take, and of the test preparation classes. He shared his dreams, hopes, worries and fears with me. I felt his excitement. I felt his preoccupation and anxiety. However, I was happy that being a Bahai is not any more an obstacle for continuing our education.

Today, my friend called and talked in a voice that showed no trace of that anxiety. He told me of his report card which has not been issued, and of his result which is not clear. He told me of the answers which were not given to him. He told me of his more-than-ever-strong determination to revitalize his country, Iran.

I cried. I cried to the extent that no tears remained for me to shed. I cried but not because of my mother who could not fulfill her dream; not because of my brothers who did not envy their non- Bahai friends even for a second; not because of my friend who was deprived of continuing his education, not even because of myself and my lost dream of becoming a physician. I cried only because I still remembered that day in my childhood when I had promised my mother to love everybody. It was only then that I understodd why I made such a promise in the prime of my dreams. I cried, and I feared that I might not keep my promise.

But weren't these people -- who I try to love -- once children? Haven't they promised their mothers to love me?

...داریوش ای فاسد موذی

jamshid


As others take turn and expose you, now I'll take my turn to expose your carefully constructed lies.

 

You claim that the Shah destroyed hundreds of thousands of lives for their political views? Those hundreds of thousands you mention are today's IRI murderers, rapists and thugs. I wish he didn't just destroyed your lives but extinguished it instead.

 

Besides, the IRI destroyed TENS OF MILLIONS of lives, so for the records you did admit that the Shah was less destructive than the IRI.

 

You are exposed Dariush and I am not done yet. You talk about "... articulating yourself with beautiful words..." Yes, speak beautiful words while murdering thousands of innocents.  Imagine the executioner "articulating himself with beautiful words" while putting the noose around the poor guy's neck. Way to go Dariush. You are such an "articulated" person.

 

I am not done ای فاسد ... read on. You claim that your prophet had good manners? Since when having sex with a nine years old child is "good manner?" Yes. Your prophet sexually gratified himself with a nine years old girl. You know... Ayesheh? This is something you won't deny because it's a fact. I dare you to deny it. What do you have to say to this ای وقیح?

 

I am not done  ای   مو ذ ی .... You claim that the Achamenids and the Sassanids were the first to command women to use vails. I don't know about the accuracy of your claim, but even if it's true, did they command them to use chador? No. Did they command them to cover themselves head to toe in a piece of dark clothes? No. There is a big difference between wearing a chador and a roosari. You so cleverly change the subject from chador to roosari to deceive the readers. Not so fast... رسوا  شو  ای  بد بخت

 

 You refer to El-Guindi or whatever and you paste a bunch of crap from Wikipedia to prove that chador was originated in Persia? It is a well known fact that half of the Farsi articles in Wikipedia is written by the IRI lackeys who are paid by IRI to sit there and write fulltime. Sorry pal but you got to do better than this. Besides in the same Wikipedia article you can read: "Note, however, that the wives are hidden in wagons and litters, not by chadors." What do you say to that?

 

Then he goes on claiming that "your leaders are not Iranians" What about your leader? Your prophet? Your god? None of which is Iranian. پس  انقدر  زر  زر  نکن  ای  سر  سپرده خود  باخته  و  نوکر  عرب

 

Egypt an Arab country? What a laugh! What an ignorant! Egypt was NOT an Arab country. It was Arabised by Arab brutes 1000 years ago using sword and bloodshed. They were forced to first abandon their religion, then their language, then their culture, and were forced to replace all of these with Islam, Arabic and arab culture. I pity the once great Egyptian civilization to be so utterly destroyed by moslems.

 

If there were more of your types back then in Iran, your type as in داریوش  سر  سپرده خود  باخته  و  نوکر  عرب , then today we Iranians would consider ourselves an arab country too.

 

I have read others's responses to your comments. They expose you vali az roo nemiri. You don't even bother answering to the key issues they are writing to expose you. You just move on. Well that's the worst kind of exposure there is, when there is no defense and you just move on to another subject. 

 

 

That's enough exposure for now. I will continue later.

Being anti-Zionist makes you anti-Jewish?

by dariushabadi on

Because I stand against Zionism, it makes me anti-Jewish? You assume I cannot have jewish, even zionist friends, because I am anti-Zionist?

 

Maybe I am not as dogmatic as you are. You probably cannot even talk to a mullah because of all your hate.

 

But I have had Israeli and Zionist friends, but I've been very frank with them with my views of Israel and Zionism. Yes, it has created tense debates, but it didn't mean I couldn't be friends with them.

 

But you proved that you are a Zionist by associating Zionism with Judaism. They are not one and the same.

 

And for the rest of your analysis, I recommend you never work as an astrologist, because even in your vagueness you were not even close to who I am (the only close thing you came is that I have some Pakistani and Iranian friends, but the rest are white americans). and oh yea, I don't sort my friends my nationality, so that makes you the RACIST not me.

 

You are the star child of Hitler. I will from now on call you Adolf Jr.


Kaveh Nouraee

You about to be rudely awakened

by Kaveh Nouraee on

I sent you a private message in an effort to save you embarassment and allow you a final opportunity to retreat with a measure of dignity. You obviously chose to prove to everyone that you lack it, not to mention demonstrating that you also lack even the slightest measure of self-respect.

As I mentioned, I am not threatening you. You truly do not know who I am. But all of us know you are a racist, bigoted piece of trash that should be prevented from breeding, so as to not further stain humanity with your genetically inferior seed.

You chose to engage my father in your pathetic argument, because that is what classless people do when they are confronted with people who see you for what you really are.

By calling me Zionist and adopting a negative stance towards Jews, you completely reversed your position concerning your relationships with Jews and Baha'is.  KAVEH-1, ARAB-0

By immediately responding to my last post, you have proven that you have no proxy as you indicated and that you indeed reside in the United States, despite your protestations to the contrary. KAVEH-2, ARAB-0

Read my profile. Like I said, I've nothing to hide. I am 41 this year. 

Now, here is who YOU are.

You were probably born after 1979, came to the U.S. with your parents where you lived in a cramped apartment and watched your parents struggle to make ends meet working jobs that you and they felt were demeaning, especially because they or you were working for Americans, who you feel are beneath you. (some are, and some not).

You did well academically, but struggled socially, because you weren't permitted to fully assimilate into Western culture by your parents, who feared that you would turn evil and lose your identity. You ended up as an introvert in school with no male friends and certainly no female friends. Your high school senior picture shows you without even a hint of a smile on your face, and more than likely you are the person with the largest nose and the darkest complexion whose ancestors weren't dragged over here in chains on a slave ship 400 years earlier.

You went to college, probably a community college because of financial considerations. (Completely honorable and understandable, since tuition costs are outrageous everywhere). That embittered you because you know that with your grades you were eligible for academic scholarships but never took the opportunity to apply for them, ultimately losing out on the opportunity to pursue a higher education on your terms to someone with an Anglo surname, or perish the thought, a Jewish one. You did well, but probably agonized about having classes with a female professor or instructor's assistant, feeling she should be home cooking dinner and that she couldn't possibly teach you anything you didn't already know, and has no business in the workplace.

You've completed most of your studies, if not all, but your prospects for success are limited by your perception that you won't be hired because everyone has it out for you because you are middle eastern or because of the similar perception held by your parents, who have programmed you to think this way about people who are different, as they don't know anything else.

You communicate primarily via internet, as it allows you to avoid dealing with people face to face, something that causes you tremendous stress. You probably earn a living in the IT field, and work from home, with your paychecks deposited directly into your account. Your bank account is more than likely a joint account with another family member. You have business cards that you made (on your computer of course) with your name and the title of "software engineer", and you are 6 to 9 months from having your job outsourced to India for 3% of your current compensation.

Your social life, if any, consists of hours of conversation and debate on topics such as religion, politics, and computer software programs. Your peers are probably other Iranians with similar upbringing, as well as Pakistanis, Arabs, and possibly the token Sri Lankan or Indonesian. Once in a while you will go out and have a slice of pizza with these guys. You haven't even done so much as to share a meal or a cup of coffee or tea with a female that isn't your blood relative. You probably don't even have one female on your Instant Messager list and the only females you have in your cell phone's address book is your mother and sister, (assuming you have one, otherwise just your mother). You probably pleasure yourself often, whenever you are alone, with erotic thoughts of white trash like Britney Spears as you do your 5-digit disco dance, picturing her with her shaved head in order to delay your happy ending as long as possible.

You see, Dariush, you are a stereotype. You kind has come, and your kind has gone. You are easier to read than a child's first book. Do not attempt to match either wits or intellect with me, as you are the intellectual equivalent of limbless goaltender at the World Cup.

GAME, SET AND MATCH. KAVEH-3, ARAB, as always,  ZERO.

Zionist's never get respect

by dariushabadi on

People can read your posts on Iranian.com to see your pro-Israel, pro-Zionist stances.

 

Not only that, I would like to expose you by showing everyone what your private message to me was:

The next time you say one word about my father or anyone else in my family, I will guarantee it will be your last.

This is not a threat, it is a promise. You have no clue who you are dealing with.

 

 

Zionists always resort to ambigious death threats or scare tactics when they can't win their arguments.

 

Kaveh, you are just a child Zionist. If Zionists had half a brain, they wouldn't mess with Iran so much.


Kaveh Nouraee

Dariush, you are truly trash

by Kaveh Nouraee on

At what point did I ever tell you I am a Zionist, or even Jewish? You are such an incredibly ignorant piece of trash that needs to be diposed of. Unlike you, I don't feel compelled to lie about my age or identity or what I stand for, unlike you, you spineless jellyfish. My age is right there for you to see if you can read. I am probably older than you by at least 15 years, based upon your virtually nonexistent level of intellect.

You have proven that despite your earlier claim to have Jewish and Baha'i friends, you are indeed a racist, bigoted piece of gutter waste that has no business breathing the same air as decent people.  

You have been exposed yet again. Now once and for all the whole world can see what you are.

Kaveh the Child Zionist

by dariushabadi on

Now I know why you talk this way. You are a 23 year old Zionist. You were born in 1984, didn't even experience the revolution, and you support us being closer to Israel despite all their crimes against humanity.

 

No more arguing with you. You are just a child Zionist. You have inherited your father's hate of the revolution, and probably have big time jewish roots.

 

I rather be an Arab Parast any day than a Zionist. No wonder you are so adament about Egypt not being an Arab country. It is your best friend with the peace accords, and Zionists don't make peace with ARABS. haha.

 

Lanaat bar Israel.


Kaveh Nouraee

At least you admit your cluelessness

by Kaveh Nouraee on

You are delusional if you think the IRI will be defended by more than a fraction of the people, in numbers that will fit on a Post-It note. Your spineless heroes have instilled fear in the Iranian people, but they are learning that their fear is baseless and therefore that perceived fear is evolving into a palpable open contempt and shall continue to evolve until it reaches the point where Iranians themselves (with or without outside help) are going to overthrow your beloved masters with a decisiveness and swiftness, the likes of which will make the 1979 revolution look like a sizdeh bedar picnic.

No one has insulted you, Mr. Arab Parast. Reconcile yourself with who and what you are, a traitor to the Iranian nation and people, and a disgrace to our race. It is you who insults Islam with your ideology, it is you and your fellow Arab worshippers who have insulted the Prophet as well as the Almighty with your twisted logic and murderous ways. As far as cussing, point out where I cussed, you illiterate, ignorant, degenerate villager. Disrespect you? Show me or anyone else on this website where you are worthy of even an OUNCE of respect. You and your kind are only worthy of contempt. You are not even worthy of pity.

You are an Arab, in every dirty sense of that dirty word. You are not Iranian, Persian, Iraqi, Lebanese, Syrian, Egyptian, or Jordanian. I am fortunate to have made friends and colleagues from all of these countries and you wouldn't even be welcomed in any of their homes. They would all call you an Arab too, in the same filthiest sense of the word. You and your kind represent everything that is disgusting in this world, with your prostitution of true religion into some kind of quasi-political verbal diarrhea that has no place in civilized society.

That bastard Khamenei is not random. He is another specific target of my contempt of the IRI, like, that monkey Ahmadinjad, that other monkey Rafsanjani (who somehow is aware of the existence of the Playboy Channel on cable TV), and every one of those pieces of trash whose feet you yearn to kiss. They have no respect for Islam, or God, or their fellow man, so they're unworthy of respect. Each and every one of them and their parasts, including you.

Don't apologize as your apologies are empty, just like YOU.


dariushabadi

you never answered my question

by dariushabadi on

my question was clear. We admit their are secular, non-religious people in Iran that hate the IRI. But are you going to admit that you won't find hundreds of thousands if not millions of people who would stand up and defend the IRI against secular people?

 

Do you not see a bloodier civil war than the one that happened in Iraq?

 

the Muslims will probably be more merciful and not kill secular Muslims in Iran (Iranian Muslims tend to be more educated because of the IRI). However, they will fight hard to keep the IRI in power.

 

So I have no clue how you guys think you can come and topple the IRI and replace it. You will have support, but you will also have major opposition.

 

Even if you claim that their is no opposition in Iran (which you would be a fool to believe that no one loves the IRI in Iran), you will bring international shias into the equation....Lebanese, Egyptian Shias, Pakistani Shias, Iraqi Shias, who will come into Iran and fight for the IRI.

 

And you will re-create the mess we have in Afghanistan and Iraq now.

 

And stop insulting random people. Have the akhlaqh of the Prophet (S) if you claim you aren't against Islam. All you do is cuss and disrespect me and other people who have not insulted you.

 

Have I disrespected you and called you names in any of my posts? If I have, I apologize.

Your Hypocrisy is Exceeded Only By Your Naievete

by Kaveh Nouraee on

Egyptians are a very proud people. Just as proud if not more so than Persians or Iranians. Egyptians have been around since as far back as 3200BC, where as the Minaeans date to 1200BC. Simple arithmetic that your math olympiad buddies could have enlightened you about.

In Iran today, no one is free to speak their mind without fear of reprisal. If you think differentlly, Dariush, you are either naieve and foolish or just plain stupid. You can list "political parties" in Iran from now until eternity. Virtually all of them were formed by two or three idiots drinking tea and smoking opium together. These so-called parties are insignificant and inconsequential.

Religion has nothing to do with any of this. You support the IRI not because of religion, but because you are a follower, incapable of formulating your own thoughts and ideas. I will bet that prior to 1979, there was a picture of the Shah, John Kennedy and an imperial flag in your home. Then like so many other people like you who follow the direction of the wind, you put those items in boxes and hid them and replaced them with pictures of that half-breed Indian bastard. People who invoke religion in every aspect of secular life are invariably uneducated and ignorant and are doomed to fail. It is the so-called religious people like you who so stupidly believe that anything that is anti-IRI involves consumption of alcohol, or nudity or immorality. That's proof of your ignorance right there. There are people who know right from wrong, Aghaye Akhund. And we know better than you. You are the moral compass for nobody, nowhere, and at no time. Your superiority complex is typical of Iranians who talk a big game but have nothing to back it up with. You can also tell your so-call olympiad friends that that kor-e-khaar Khamenei is no seyed, just a bum. To call him seyed is an insult to true seyeds. This idiot can't trace his ancestry to Prophet Mohammad, Hassan or Hossein. You're all bent out of shape over things like alcohol, but you say nothing when someone claims to be a seyed and truly insults Prophet Mohammad. What a hypocrite.

Iran is not going to be reclaimed from religious people, but rather, reclaimed from the thieves who have raped and pillaged her in the name of religion. Religion that they have prostituted as a front for their criminal activities.

Secularism, a civil society, a democracy, has absolutely nothing to do with drinking or sleeping with women. For you to think that it does only proves your profound stupidity beyond any reasonable shadow of doubt.


dariushabadi

stereotyping to the max

by dariushabadi on

so you are saying if i go to Egypt....i couldn't find a single egyptian to claim they are an Arab?

 

The same way if I go to Iran, I couldn't find millions of people who love the Islamic Republic?

 

You guys live in a virtual reality. You have not seen what we have seen. You go stick your heads in certain areas and listen to what you want to listen.

 

We (the supporters of the IRI) admit their are secular people, people against the IRI, and people who drink alcohol and etc. in the IRI. We know their are corrupt akhunds (we would call them munafiqhs) and the like.

 

But we've also seen the other side of the coin, and it is filled with millions of bright minds who support and love the Islamic Republic. I've told you in past posts that I've lived with Math and Physics olympiad winners from Iran, and they come from super religious families who would get really angry if you even disrespected Seyed-Khamenei.

 

Iran is not what you guys think it is. If you guys dare even try to impose your rule back in Iran, you will create a CIVIL war....and the people who have religion on their sides tend to be more devoted in a war, and it will cause you guys not only to suffer huge casualties, but destroy Iran with your carelessness.

 

You cannot reclaim Iran from the religious people. It just won't work. This isn't the 50's when secularism ran strong. Muslims and Shias see Iran as the last hope, and will defend it much greater than any secular idiot in Iran who thinks that freedom means drinking alcohol and sleeping with tons of women.

 

I stand with the political prisoners of Iran, but not those who wish to see a future tomorrow that is all about drinking, being morally corrupt, and undressing our women in the streets.

by Kaveh Nouraee on

The only fantasy is the one you are having about yourself. You are a legend in your own mind. Once again, you prove that you know nothing.

Like I said, go call an Egyptian an Arab. Make sure you have a reconstructive surgeon close by to repair the damage that the Egyptian will do to you. Yes I have been there while you couldn't even find it on a map.

by dariushabadi on

Their are 23 countries in the Arab League, and I would say only 6 of them are of "semetic arab descent". Modern day Iraq speaks Arabic, but they are by blood indo-aryan with a mix of Arab blood. Same with Syrians and Lebanese people (which is why they are lighter skinned and look closer to us). But yet they all consider themselves arab.

 

Have you been to Egypt? They consider themselves Arabs. Just talk to these people instead of making up fantasies.

Re: wow

by alborz on

Hardly the case...read what I wrote again.  I have cut an pasted it for your convenience.

"Can the responsibility for isolation of the Islamic Republic and the resulting hardships of the Iranian people be placed anywhere other than the leadership and those that rose up to install and retain a system that perpetuates a cycle of suffering that does not compare with anything in modern Iranian history? "

Note that I said "leadership AND those...".  I did not rise up to install them nor have I had a role in retaining them.  If I had a role in any of this I would have reflected it in my statement.  Despite this fact I went onto say:

When are we as a people going to take responsibility for our own misery and failures and stop looking for scape goats?

Again, I said "WE as a people".

We all need to keep working on objectivity and in reading your response to another reader, I see that there is indeed hope for us all.

dariushabadi

wow

by dariushabadi on

you spoke of not using scapegoats, yet you fell in the trap of saying that the current leaders are at fault, when our "misery" is a collective problem. Everyone is at fault. You can't point at so-and-so and say all our misery is because of him. Sorry alborz, but you are as dogmatic as alamo5000, for he blames the bahais and you blame the mullahs. two sides of the same coin.


Kaveh Nouraee

No mistakes

by Kaveh Nouraee on

Arab Parast

All you need to do is read. Yes, it is called the Arab Repubic of Egypt. The official language is "Egyptian Arabic". Yes the majority are Moslem. Arabs invaded Egypt in 639 A.D. Even a first grader knows that Egypt existed long before 639 A.D.  Egyptian people are Berbers and Masreyyin. They are African, whereas Arabs are not.

The Arab League's (headquartered in Cairo) definition of "Who's An Arab" in 1946 is not accepted by the general population of Egypt. Call an Egyptian an Arab and see if you will still be able to chew your food unassisted.

I know you act like an Arab and wish you were Arab, and I think it is safe to say that as far as anyone who reads your tripe is concerned, the Arabs can have you. But don't try and take anyone else down into your hole with you.


dariushabadi

thats stereotyping and unjust

by dariushabadi on

almo5000, while everyone here knows i'm a practicing muslim and disagree with the theological base of Baha'ism, I disagree with you 100% that Iran should discrminate against them solely because 1 or 2 people in the Shah's regime were leaders of SAVAK, etc.

 Let us not forget that the rest of the Shah's regime were majority Muslims who were oppressing the people. Should we deny Muslims rights because of what happened under Shah's regime, or because a few so-called Muslims are oppressing people in the name of Islam under the IRI?

 Even if a few hundred Baha'is lobbied against Iran in the US Congress, their are hundreds of thousands of innocent Baha'is that just live their normal lives and care about their daily bread and are not doing any injustice to the people of Iran.

Even in Iran, most Baha'is just live their normal lives, and aren't doing anything against the average citizen. You cannot do collective punishment on a people because of the crimes of a few.

"You are either brothers in religion, or EQUALS in Creation" -Imam Ali (A)

by dariushabadi on

you will never admit your mistakes, because your ego would hurt too much. I proved by every fact that Egypt is an Arab country, yet you didn't respond with any facts to counter me, just insulted me.

 

I wish Shahees could articulate themselves by citing sources and bringing facts instead of insulting their opponents. Or is that the tolerance you show to people who disagree with you? You are just like the Shah, intolerant of the other.


cyclicforward

This is the misinformation

by cyclicforward on

This is the misinformation that Hojjatis are feeding population. I am glad that you wrote this opinion so it could be dissected by everyone and show what a misguided thought process Iranian nation are being fed everyday. Even if we assume that the head of Savak was a Bahai ( which I seriously doubt this ) then, does that justify to tortutre and torment the rest of the Bahais for the last 25 years? For your information Hitler was a Chrisitian, then does that justify the rest of the world torment the Christians and don't let them progress?

if You think Iranian people are buying into any of these fanatic unhumane reasoning and behavior then I must say you are sadly mistaken. I suggest that you also wake up to the truth and not to fall into the trap of misguided ideas that are being fed to you. You can think, find the truth and don't follow the dogma of a few.

Re: Can't Keep my Promise, Mother

by alborz on

The economic and social woes that the Iranian people face today being attributed to Bahais being vocal about their plight is the most absurd of all associations attributed to Bahais and another example of our inclincation to not accept responsibility.

Can the responsibility for isolation of the Islamic Republic and the resulting hardships of the Iranian people be placed anywhere other than the leadership and those that rose up to install and retain a system that perpetuates a cycle of suffering that does not compare with anything in modern Iranian history? 

When are we as a people going to take responsibility for our own misery and failures and stop looking for scape goats?  If alamo5000 resides outside of Iran and has access to information, then his assertions, which have no basis, no reference, and no credibility, is more reason for us to be concerned about our evolution from a dark past and a darker present, because the basic principles of objectivity and independent investigation has not yet been learned and adopted broadly.

I remain hopefuly that the likes of alamo5000 are dwindling in numbers and even if not extinct in my lifetime, they will be immaterial and inconsequential to the future of of Iran.

Re: Can't Keep My Promise, Mother

by almo5000 on

Bahai's are paying the price for the mistakes of then their leaders' collaboration with the worst human rights violator (the shah), and today for the mistakes of their leaders in Washington DC (that is to say through their lobbyists in US congress). Bahai's mistakes at the shah time were clear -- For example, Mr. Sabet a major Bahai figure was the cheif of Savak, and Bahai's in general openned and the paved the way to plunder Iran's weath though cooperation with the zionists. Today, through their lobbyists in Washington DC,, (and again through collaboration with Iranian enemies) they are putting the utmost economic pressures on ordinary Iranians in Iran. My mother, your motehr, and many other mothers and fathers and children have the right to accessible medicine and other basic services of life. They are not getting those services affordably because of the "US government's economic sanction" on Iran -- -thanks to Bahai's abnd their affiliates. Why should Bahai's then have any rights in Iran?

Please buy me a map

by dariushabadi on

Please buy me a map, so I can show you that the official name of Egypt is "Arab Republic of Egypt". It is not only a permanent member of the Arab-League, but the OFFICIAL HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARAB LEAGUE is based in Cairo, Egypt.

 

It was also Nasser, then president of Egypt, who pushed for "Pan-Arabism" and failed.

 

The people of Egypt consider themselves Arabs, and as I said above, the official name of the country is "Arab Republic of Egypt"

 

So where do you get this fact that Egypt is not an Arab country? Because you said so, it must be so? To those reading this, is it not ironic that they claim I don't back myself with facts, yet they make up facts and claim its true just because they said so? I again stand by the fact that Egypt is an ARAB country (based on their official name, as well as their permanent membership in the Arab-League), and therefore your Shah was buried in an Arab country.

Reza Shah was born in Mazandaran. Mazandaran is in fact in Iran proper. Perhaps you can enroll in a remedial geography and map-reading class.

Mohammad Reza Shah is buried in Egypt. Egypt is NOT an Arab country. It is primarily Moslem, and the primary language is Arabic, but it is not an Arab country. Re-read one of your Middle Eastern history books,  Aghaye Anthropologist.

You words are no insult to me

by dariushabadi on

Unlike you, I am not a RACIST to be insulted if I actually did follow leaders that weren't from my country. Do you read your Mein Kempf every day to give yourself energy to come and spew your racism on this forum?

 

But if we were to use your standards, all the leaders in Iran were born in Iran-proper, making them IRANIAN. However, your Reza Khan wasn't even born in Iran-proper and therefore cannot be classified as IRANIAN.

 

Also, it is your leader (Muhammad Reza Pahlavi) that is buried in an Arab country. And is it not funny that the Pahlavi dynasty all have Arab and Islamic names (even the daughter is named NOOR which is Arabic). If you guys are so anti-Arab, why don't you e-mail Neem-Pahlavi and ask him to change his kids name to pure persian ones?

Dariush, Come out of the closet

by Kaveh Nouraee on

Dariush, you are indeed Arab Parast. The sooner you reconcile yourself with that fact, the sooner you will be freed from the mental prison where you have been locked in for God knows how long. You will remain Arab Parast for as long as you remain starstruck by these IRI clowns you worship, like a groupie. I don't expect for you to be insulted, as I'm only telling you the truth. The truth, while sometimes painful, is never insulting. I don't waste my time with fosh, especially with people of your ilk. People with your mindset are generally miserable, and are filled with contempt for those who have what you seek but fail to have. I am not a follower of Zartosht, and your feeble attempt to affix any sort of label upon me is comical. Furthermore, you have no clue who I am, where I am from and what I am about. Apologists like yourself are under the fantasy that they have all of the answers, yet none of you even understand the question. You had nothing to do with the formation of the IRI, so don't give yourself any credit either. As far as your thinly veiled threat towards me regarding my being "taken care of", movaazeh baash. You're playing with fire and wearing a suit made of gasoline, and it's hot outside. Money hasn't spoiled me, Dariush, but it is apparent that your focus as to whether or not I have money has embittered you. As far as my education, if I truly were illterate and uneducated, I wouldn't be able to see you for what you are, vatanforoosh and Arab parast. That's not bad akhlaq, it's not cursing. It's the truth, the very core of who you are, someone trapped in the closet and prison of his own narrow mind, enslaved by your IRI masters. In Iran no one is free, and in your case, you cannot even be free here in the U.S. because of your ideology.

History of Hijab

by dariushabadi on

El-Guindi, in her book on the history of hijab, locates the origin of the Persian custom in ancient Mesopotamia, where respectable women veiled, and servants and prostitutes were forbidden to do so. The veil marked class status.

This custom seems to have been adopted by the Persian Achaemenid rulers, who are said by the Graeco-Roman historian Plutarch to have hidden their wives and concubines from the public gaze.

The barbarous nations, and amongst them the Persians especially, are extremely jealous, severe, and suspicious about their women, not only their wives (hai gamētai), but also their bought slaves and concubines (pallakai), whom they keep so strictly that no one sees them abroad; they spend their lives shut up within doors (oikoi) and when they take a journey, are carried in closed tents, curtained on all sides, and set upon a wagon (harmamaxai). (cited in Briant 2002 p. 284)

 

 

 

 

So it seems the VEIL marked the OPPOSITE of what you "CLAIM". Educate yourself and curse less, it is good for you.

 

And seriously, take a chill pill, life is short for you, you shouldn't stress out abuot these things so much.

"Iran becomes once again a free and democratic country "

by dariushabadi on

When was Iran a free and democratic country for it to become one "AGAIN" as you quote? I'm flipping through every book out there and can't find that period in our history. Enlighten me? (and I hope you aren't thinking Mosaddeq's time, because even during his time Iran was not a free or democratic nation by the standards of liberal democracy)

Arab Parast?

by dariushabadi on

Why do you call me an ARAB-PARAST when the FIRST people to COMMAND women to cover their hairs were the Achamenids and after them the Sassanids? After them the Jews and then the Christians made it mandatory for women to cover their hair.

 

You are illiterate and un-educated that you think this is an Arab custom for women to cover their hairs. The root of it is Persian.

 

And if you are so persian, follow Zartusht in not cursing so much. Good Words, Good Deeds, Good thoughts. Can you at least follow 3 things?
