Canadian Broadcasting Corporation: Minna and Fariba are neighbours and good friends. They support one another. Both have to live under the pervasive curtailment of women's rights and the double standards of today's Iranian society. They make a living walking the streets looking for men. They have a choice between leaving their small children at home alone or bringing them along when they have sex with men. The film is a sympathetic portrait of the two women, exploring their day-to-day life and the workings of prostitution in a country that bans it and prosecutes adulterers, sometimes with the penalty of capital punishment.
Thanks to SK.

Jamshid,
by Q on Sat Nov 03, 2007 07:03 PM PDTSo far you have called me "Pro-IRI", "wanna-be" IRI, "traitor", 'supporter of criminals", islamist, islamofascist, and probably dozens of more things that I can't remember. You have called me all these things without showing any shred of proof. Don't you find it ironic that after weeks of BS name calling, you are just NOW getting around to asking me what my political views are? By contrast, I have called you fascist and everytime, I show you exactly why. You even admitted wishing to forcibly silencing your opposition just because what they say = "support for the regime" to you. Don't you find it ironic that you're already on record wanting to GLADLY punish me without even knowing who I am, what I have done or what I believe? Do you find this a healthy thing for someone to believe?
Sorry, my answer remain below. But I will tell you, in all seriousness. If - like me - you have lived in America for years, as is clear from your language you have, and are not using your real name because you are afraid of IRI, two things are clear:
1) You have no business calling anyone else "afraid" or cowardly.
2) You must be really developmentally and psychologically damaged. Don't you see the power that IRI has over you (that you are willing to give it). Why did you come out of Iran, if you are afraid of even USING the freedom that you now have? You can't even speak your mind under your real name in AMERICA? Teenage kids are blogging much more controversial subjects from the heart of Tehran, and you're scared of the IRI here?
Think about what this says about you, and why you are constantly obsessed with revenge, demonization and destruction of Islam and IRI. It's like you are still living in the weeks after the revolution when you first realized you were betrayed.
I must say, without insult that it's very fascinating to me.
Re: Q
by jamshid on Sat Nov 03, 2007 06:39 PM PDTI always find it to be a distinguishable "honor" to have lost my credibility in the eyes of you and your likes. I WON'T have it any other way.
Perhaps if I was a pro-IRI individual, I too would not be concerned about using my real name, as I would not be facing imprisonment, torture and most likely execution by your mullah masters.
So you dodge the question again eh? Using the now famous DDF method? That is Deception, Diversion and Fallacy?
So are you or are you not pro-IRI? Ok, why don't you just say you are a "reformist" pro-IRI? or totally anti-IRI? Do you have any articles or comments to support it?
I am anti-IRI and all my comments are evidence for that. What about you Q? I am begining to feel pity for you Q...
sorry Jamshid,
by Q on Sat Nov 03, 2007 05:33 PM PDTIt's clear you have lost all credibility and are now trying to make this about "me". I'm not the fascist who continuously lies and breaks his own word, as I have demonstrated in 3 threads now, including this one. You can make up whatever lie you feel like about me (like I was trying to find out your IP address! as if...). But at the end of hte day, you are the coward who uses multiple names and is AFRAID to use his real identity as I do. Nothing is going to change that. Nice try.
Sorry, after the intolerance you have shown, you're just no longer worthy of an intelligent conversation. I don't feel like you can comprehend my position. But maybe if you continue to cry some more I'll get bored and share it again. Go ahead, do some more "diversion" on the subject of this thread. I'm getting the popcorn...
Re: afshinme
by jamshid on Sat Nov 03, 2007 04:51 PM PDTDear Afshin, it is just too much fun exposing Q, this IslamoFascist wanna be. Now you don't want to deprive me of some good fun, are you?
I won't be surprised if Q is a spy for the regime. In another thread he was so anxiously trying to find out about my IP address.
He is a freightened and pitiful IslamoFascist wanna be. "Wanna be" because he doesn't even dare coming forward and say what his political view on IRI is.
Re: Q, the frightened Ultra-IslamoFascist (wanna be)
by jamshid on Sat Nov 03, 2007 04:41 PM PDTQ, yes, I would GLADLY punish pro-IRI traitors. It is not only "savaab", it's even "vaajeb". Got that? The problem with me is that I would be too linient.
So are you or are you not pro-IRI? So what if you already posted the answer elsewhere? Post it again! What are you afraid of Q? Are you concerned about the life span of your beloved IRI? That once they fall, YOU would be in trouble? That you'll end up in exile and under the "protection" of the same western countires you so much hate?
Are you freightened Q? Just say, no I am not pro-IRI, not even the so called "reformist" brand. Or say yes I am a proud IRI supporter. What are you afraid of Q?
Up to 600,000 Juveniles in US involved in prostitution.
by Xerxes IV (not verified) on Sat Nov 03, 2007 04:03 PM PDTCHILD PROSTITUTION
CHILDREN USED IN CRIME
A 1997 survey, based on federal government data, reveals that some
290,000 children are working illegally.
Alien smuggling organisations use Suriname as an intermediate
destination to smuggle Chinese nationals, including women and girls, to
the United States, where frequently they are forced into bonded labour situations.
In mid-1997 in Queens New York, police were informed of more than 60
Mexican immigrants including 12 children ranging in age from 6 months to
6 years, being held in 'involuntary servitude'.
The US Department of Justice estimates the numbers to be between 100,000 and 3 million. These figures include children involved in
prostitution, child pornography and who have been trafficked into the United States.300,000 to 600,000 juveniles are involved in prostitution in the United States.

jamshid, once again
by Q on Sat Nov 03, 2007 01:28 PM PDTOnce again you shoved a portion larger than your mouth can muster.
I have posed many questions to you in my last post. Why should I answer yours when you are clearly avoiding mine? You have been shown as a true fascist, one who wants to punish people just for thinking and expressing. Now that you realize how bad you sounded, you want to find excuses after the fact to justify punishing me.
well sorry. First, my politics are none of your business and second, I have talked about them before and third, no, I can't provide a link. If you paid attention the first time, you would have known. The point is you are threatening to harm people you can't stand, not because of any crime, but because of words. You don't care about "justice" you just want to silence your opposition. Everyone knows that now.
Ma'aslam.
Don't waist your time
by afshinme on Sat Nov 03, 2007 12:24 PM PDTDear Jamshid,
Don’t waist your time trying to have a dialogue with “Q”. I could be wrong but, if I’m not mistaking, Q is the same guy who actually posted Prostitution Behind the Veil on youtube. He goes by the name ariakokoschka on that site. If you go to youtube’s site you’ll see that contrary to his claim of being against IRoI, he is most certainly an Islamist fascist. I watched the 5 part video submission on youtube and expressed my repugnance of Iran’s regime. Ironically the submitter of the videos (aiakokoschka) verbally attacked me and anyone else who expressed their disgust at the regime and its shortcomings. As I read Q’s comments I couldn’t help but noticing the similarity of his style of argument and ariakokoschka’s. This person is either a spy for the regime or a lunatic who loves to argue just to feel smart I guess.

Re: Q
by jamshid on Sat Nov 03, 2007 03:27 AM PDTInstead of wearing out your keyboard and typing all your usual ranting, why don't you come out of the closet and directly state what is your opinion of the IRI regime? You claim you are not a supporter of the regime? Are you against it? Being an IRI "reformist" DOES NOT MAKE YOU ANTI-IRI. And yes anyone who is not ANTI-IRI is either a traitor to Iran OR he should crawl in a hole and stay quite.
Why don't you learn from me and be clear about your position? What are you hiding? State it clearly. And don't give me the "it's none of your business" crap. If it isn't, then pack up from this site and buzz off, or crawl in a hole and just read and spare us from your ranting. And don't give me "I had already stated it in my other posts" either, unless you give me a link.
Why the secret? Are you scared for your life? Shouldn't I be the one who should be scared? After all I am a "morted", a "kaffar" and by Islam's law, I must be "sought" and "killed". Wouldn't you love that Q haan? Be honest, you fantasize about it, don't you?
Wow jamshid, so many excuses, so little substance...
by Q on Sat Nov 03, 2007 12:40 AM PDTYour "logic" is seriously lacking. Your post is bullshit, confusing and reeks of desperation. You don't even address half the points raised and for good reason too: you've got nothing to say.
I threw your own words in your face, and now you are accusing me of misrepresenting you? As usual you are so scared shitless of people actually finding out what kind of worthless fascist you really are, that you have to cover up your own mess with BS double-talk. People can see through these excuses Jamshid, don't embarass yourself.
It's right here asshole. No two ways about it:
-------------------------------
those who are even supporting these criminals (such as you Q), are ACCOUNTABLE for each and every crime committed against each and every Iranian.
How do YOU suggest you IRI soldouts should be punished for your crimes when your day comes? Don't you think rebuilding the country which you so completly destroyed would be the best punishment? I don't agree with captial punishment nor imprisonment. WORK that benefits the Iranian masses would be the most just sentence.
-------------------------------
You are talking about "punishing" me for my "crimes" right? You're fantacizing that I'm "supporting these criminals" (no proof, of course) right? You're suggesting I should do forced labor as punishment, right?
What are these "crimes" that I should be punished for? What is the "support" you are inventing? Are the "crimes" anything other than words that I have typed on this website? Are they? Hey asshole, these are your own words, do you have the manhood to stand by them? (Obviously not or else you wouldn't try to deny it 10 minutes later). Typical.
Nothing worst than a cowardly fascist.
Re: Q Ultra-IslamoFascist
by jamshid on Fri Nov 02, 2007 11:50 PM PDTYour views are pro-IRI, sorry Q, padding pro-IRI with "refromist" won't save you.
So now you have become a psychologist too haan? How self-serving.
Don't you know the word "innovation"? Must you use the same old tired techniques? "bacheh naneye soosool", I will rub you "pooz" to dust everytime you show up here. So here we go...
1. Deception:
Q says: "... you want to ... "free" iran from Islam and IRI by whatever means. You have given yourself the right to speak on behalf of every Iranian..."
So. What do we have here? A common and over used method of deception, the 2 sentence variation. You start with a correct and true sentence: "you want to ... "free" iran from Islam and IRI by whatever means." Then you continue it with a second incorrect and false statement: "You have given yourself the right to speak on behalf of every Iranian". In this method, the deceptor (Q) prepares his audience mind by a true well known fact, paving the way for the audience to believe the next sentence coming up, which of course is a lie.
You can see this technique in what he says next. The junior says: "You (jamshid) just said ... I (Q) should be given forced labor for the crime of "talking."
The same two sentence method. The first part of his quote is correct, and of course the second part is false, the same one, two punch deception method. I did not say you should be punished for the crime of talking. I said you should be punished for supporting the IRI, EVEN if you are the so called "reformist" brand.
Let's dissect another more sophisticated "fallacy" tactic Q uses often, shall we Q? He says:
"you consider articulating a political position on a website to be equal to committing atrocities against each and every Iranian." In other words, WORDS ARE CRIME.
Folks, this is a more advanced method of "fallacy". I could always expose him by asking him to show where did I ever say that? But wouldn't that be boring? So let's get into Q's mind and see what he is trying to do here:
1. He first picks a neutral statement, eg, "articulating a political position on a website". It need not even have been said by the opponent. We shall call this statement "A".
A="articulating a political position on a website"
2. He then picks a clause that the opponent HAS said. In this case Q picked this: "committing atrocities against each and every Iranian". This is a clause from one of a sentence that I DID write. It is not important what the rest of the sentence was when Q's technique is used. We shall call this statement "B".
B="committing atrocities against each and every Iranian"
3. He then links statement "A" and "B", using a few additional "link" words to deceive the reader to conclude an entirely "invented" statement "C". Below, the "link" words are in bold font:
You consider [articulating a political position on a website] to be equal to [committing atrocities against each and every Iranian]
Note how statement "A" and "B" by themselves are ok, but by adding a few strategically placed link words an entirely new statement is "suggested" to the reader which could be entirely false. The suggested statement in here is that "Jamshid considers talking on the website to be the same than committing crimes", which of course is not true. This method of fallacy does not work with smarter readers, but Q thinks most people here are "masjed boro" type, 90% of them would acutally fall for these fallacy methods.
The rest of his ranting use one of the three methods I just described. As always it was fun to expose you Q.

CBC news report:
Canada's homeless population is somewhere between 200,000 and
300,000 people, while another 1.7 million residents struggle with
"housing affordability issues," says an analysis of the latest research
on shelter.
In a report released Tuesday from the Calgary-based Sheldon Chumir
Foundation for Ethics in Leadership, journalist and author Gordon Laird
argues homelessness is now chronic and is quickly becoming one of the
country's defining social issues. He makes a case for a national
housing strategy and a more robust income security program.
Citing statistics from a wide range of organizations, Laird says
poverty is the leading cause of homelessness in Canada, not substance
abuse or mental illness. "Roughly half of all Canadians live in fear of
poverty, and 49 per cent polled believe they might be poverty stricken
if they missed one or two paycheques," he writes.
Laird is a media fellow with the foundation, which works to
influence ethical actions in politics, business, government and the
community.
In his report, Laird writes that street counts of homeless people
have increased dramatically — "Calgary's homeless population grew 740
per cent between 1994 and 2006."
He cites government numbers showing a cost of up to $6 billion a
year to service a "core" homeless population of 150,000. That cost
includes health care, criminal justice, social services and emergency
shelter costs.
I'm glad you are using this thread for your enjoyment,
by Q on Fri Nov 02, 2007 08:09 PM PDTPsychologists say that people often use humor to deal with harsh reality that they can't face. Fits perfectly. Everyone has already read your sob story of how you were "fooled" by the revolution and have now vowed revenge and are constantly talking angrily about what you would do to people you don't like. Very healthy indeed!!! You're not logging in from a mental hospital are you?
Once again committing serious hypocricy since you accused others of "diverting." At least you have shut up about that line, which I can appreciate. I mean there's only so much filth you can physically. spew. You need a break! An amusement break!
Look I totally understand. Really, I do. You claim you want to fight for freedom and "free" iran from Islam and IRI by whatever means. You have given yourself the right to speak on behalf of every Iranian, constantly telling us about our own History, religion and politics. How courageous and considerate of you!!! How selfless and self-sacrificing!!!
Yes, I do understand. You just said, not one hour ago, that I should be given forced labor for the crime of "talking." I know you can't believe your own words, we've already covered the concept of denial. So let me remind you. Since it makes you feel better about yourself, I will quote you own words.
You:
--------------------------------------------------
All those who are committing uncounted atrocities against the good people of Iran, and those who are accomplicing them, AND those who are even supporting these criminals (such as you Q), are ACCOUNTABLE for each and every crime committed against each and every Iranian.
--------------------------------------------------
And now let me use your own technique to break this down for you, so you understand:
1. FASCISM: You presume before any fact finding or trial that YOU know exactly who is committing atrocities against the "people of Iran."
2. FASCISM: Dispite the fact that no one has elected and appointed you to anything (and no one will), you claim to speak on behalf of 70 Million people. You know who else does that? The Rajavi Cult.
3. FASCISM: You accuse me of supporting IRI when I have never done that. Based on -not any direct statements saying so- but simply what YOU interpret my writing to SOUND like. You know who else did this? Big brother from 1984.
4. FASCISM: You consider articulating a political position ON A WEBSITE to be EQUAL to "committing atrocities against each and every Iranian." In other words, WORDS ARE CRIME. (See the book 1984, the red scare, Nazi Germany and Stalinist Russia).
5. FASCISM: The PUNISHMENT for EXPRESSING views that you consider CRIMINAL (see #4) is Forced Labor, as you not only mentioned but defended as a "fair" punishment later. So, you want to throw people into Gulag for the crime of speaking their mind???
Forget everyone else - I know of no sane rational human who would dispute this - but are you yourself are still saying you are not a fascist?
Sweet dreams!

Re: Q, Ultra-IslamoFascist...
by jamshid on Fri Nov 02, 2007 07:03 PM PDTInteresting... My arguments are so powerful, that you copy and paste my own phrases???
Back to your toolbox of "deception", "diversion" and "fallacy":
1. Deception:
You claim that I am a fascist because I am against captial punishment and for "forced laber", and therefore I am like Hitler. Very clever Q. The deception your are using here is that you are not saying the "forced labor" that I mention is for what crime? I think half of the world would agree that a rapist, a killer, a thief, etc, should somehow be punished. What about the crime of raping, executing and looting an ENTIRE nation? By supporting the IRI, you have a committed crime for which you are indirectly responsible.
Your deception is exposed.
I asked how do YOU think you should be punisehd? But you didn't answer.
2. Diversion:
Again you are attacking my person, instead of defending the subject in which your side is on the defensive. A very common technique used by you and your likes. Sorry won't work.
3. Fallacy.
THIS IS SO AMUSING! The guy is using fallacy to disprove his own use of fallacy! I mean can you beleive this guy?! This is a first! Fallacy being used to defend fallacy! Isn't it amusing?
You say: "... when you (jamshid) do something, it's OK, ... But when people you're losing debates to do the same thing, you cry like a baby...." And when did I cry like a baby? Or are you refering to yourself crying like a baby because I took "the last word" away from you in the other thread? Q, you are just playing with words here, constructing sentences that are baseless, irrelvant and false to defend your own fallacies.
Your fallacy is exposed.
Q, I find you to be an amusing creature. Your comments don't make me angry anymore, nor disapointed, nor any other kind of negative feelings. They just entertain and amuse me. In other words, I reply to you only for entertaining myself by toying with you. I know you hate it, that is being the unchallenged charlatan that you were on this site, you suddenly have met your match who keeps rubbing your "pooz" on dust (poozeto hey be khaak mimaaleh) each and every time. That must be annonying, isn't it?

Wow, what a humanitarian you are, you don't want capital punishment for you opponents only forced labor! Much like Hilter, Stalin, Mussolini, Mao and Pol Pot, only a fascist uses "scientific efficiency" on how to best put your prisoners to "use." What a "just" humanitarian indeed. I can't see very well, is that Gandhi disguised as Jamshid???
way to "bring back" the discussion on topic. I'm sure attacking me, is very related to the video. Just like I said, when you do something, it's OK, it's for the best of intentions. But when other people do the same thing, you cry like a baby.
I get it: Blaming Iran for the Iran-Iraq war is "related" you see... but comparing conditions in Canada to Iran is a "diversion"!!!! By definition nothing YOU write is a diversion, only the stuff you don't like is a diversion! I didn't write any of the Canada stuff (I think it's Hajiagha), but I can't help notice that once again, you've mastered new hights in hypocricy. Bravo! Way to take personal responsibility.
Do you even understand what "fallacy" means? Your retarded point could only make sense if the people you were accusing were actually rapists. But the "crime" you have charged ME with (without proof) is being an "IRI lacky" on a FUCKING WEBSITE. In other words, just for TALKING you want to put me in forced labor!!! And you cry when I point this out. To you this is justice!!! "ey vay! roo ro beram!" This is what FASCISM is all about, and of course you don't disappoint. See how easy it is to show that you're fascist????! see???
Again... thank god 1000 times you will never have any power to implement your "justice"... thank god!!! If anyone has any doubt that this guy is anything but a total fascist read his last post.

Re: Q, IRI traitor...
by jamshid on Fri Nov 02, 2007 05:52 PM PDTIn another post which I am sure you have read, but had no answers, I mentioned how IRI supporters like you, use three proven methods of "deception", "diversion" and "fallacy" to achieve their goals.
Shall we disssect your last comment and see how you used each of these "tools" to "deceive", "divert", and "fool" other readers?
1. Deception:
You say: "... why DID you (Jamshid) start diverting attention by (talking about iran-iraq war)..."
The "truth" (the antidode to deception) is that the Iran-Iraq war IS related to the misery that Iranians are suffering today and perhaps for the next generation or two as well. Got that? They are RELATED in a DIRECT manner.
Your attempt to deceive is exposed.
2. Diverting:
When I tried in my last comment to shift the focus back to the main subject, namely that "YOU", yes you Q, and your likes and the mullahs are causing the misery in Iran, you immediately came in and "attempted' to change the subject back to something else.
Your attempt to divert is exposed.
3. Fallacy:
You say: "... you (Jamshid) have threatened your opponents with violence ..."
No. You are using fallacy to substittue "violence" for "justice". If someone rapes one of your relatives and you want him to be found, tried and punished for his crime, that does not mean that you are a "violent" person, it means you are seeking "justice". See Q? See how easy it is to expose your fallacy?
Your attempt to fallacy is exposed.
All those who are committing uncounted atrocities against the good people of Iran, and those who are accomplicing them, AND those who are even supporting these criminals (such as you Q), are ACCOUNTABLE for each and every crime committed against each and every Iranian.
How do YOU suggest you IRI soldouts should be punished for your crimes when your day comes? Don't you think rebuilding the country which you so completly destroyed would be the best punishment? I don't agree with captial punishment nor imprisonment. WORK that benefits the Iranian masses would be the most just sentence.

by Per Larson (not verified) on Fri Nov 02, 2007 05:43 PM PDTProstitution is part of any society.
Just because there are more women sleeping around in Iran today, does not mean that prostitution is prevalent. All it means is that women are empowered more in the society to be able to sleep around. And those who have not been back to Iran to experience and learn about the new "Persian Women" can not be blamed for their lack of understanding.
Today's Iran is like the 60s in the US, with a drastic change from the conservative 40's and 50's.
In the case of this particular "Documentary" shown on Canadian broadcasting, which was produced by Nahid Persson, a Swede, she could have done an informative and socially responsible documentary had she attempted to address some basic topics, comparing a socially advanced society like Sweden with Iran.
- How does prostitution compare in Sweden vs. Iran?
- What's the percentage of prostitutes to population?
- What are the reasons women practice prostitution in Sweden?
- Why prostitution exists in a society like Sweden where even living as a welfare recipient is a higher standard of life than upper class lifestyle even in most western countries ?
- What benefits are provided to prostitutes by the government? ...
And more importantly,
- How does rate of prostitution within Iranian community in Sweden compare with Iran?
This so called "Documentary", does not give any indication that she cared about the issue and that she was committed to helping even the two Afghanis who were filmed.
The reality is that despite illegality of prostitution, Sweden "suffers" as badly despite all social know-how and advance social benefits.
In addition, Sweden is a transit point for prostitutes from many eastern European countries. Talking about prostitute trafficking, Canada ranks top for traffiking far-eastern prostitutes.
Bottom line, she is just another empowered "Persian Woman", prostituting in the streets of movie industry ... Good for her ...

Vancouver Sun
Published: Thursday, November 01, 2007
B.C.'s ministry of children and family development spent $560,120 in renovations to the fourth floor of its Victoria headquarters - $300,000 over budget, according to the website Publiceyeonline.com.
Citing documents obtained through a freedom of information request, the website says the costs included spending $41,500 on a consultant to "incorporate design elements that create a warm, welcoming environment" for the First Nations community, the website reports.
Among those elements: an $8,500 two-metre cedar totem pole and additional art pieces totalling $21,877.51. Publiceyeonline.com quotes children and family development communications director Barb Wright as saying the renovations are "$68,762 less than a typical project for B.C. government office space of a similar size."
NDP children and family development critic Nicholas Simons criticized the spending.
Interesting point, Jamshid, does it apply to yourself?
by Q on Fri Nov 02, 2007 04:55 PM PDTso why DID you start diverting attention by talking about how Iran is to blame for the Iran-Iraq war? As usual the "amre farmayesh" that you decree for us mere mortals does not apply to yourself. I was going to point this out as yet-another instance of lie but "denial" is probably more accurate.
Speaking on behalf of "lajans", let me once again thank god 1000 times that people like you will never have any power in Iran. The fascism in every post of your writing is FLAMING! This is probably the 10th or 15th time you have threatened your opponents with violence by saying things like "we will deal with you," "you will answer to the people" (meaning what? written responses?), "your time will come," "we will take care of you someday." Sure, talk is cheap, threats, even cheaper. Tell me Jamshid, let's say we put you in charge of Iran, how many people will you execute the first week? Don't be shy, be honest!
The world would indeed be a better place if people were genuinly interested in helping those less fortunate than themselves, instead of cynically using the innocent victims to promote their own politics. I doubt you will ever know the extent of your own hypocricy, my friend!
