"This film takes a look into the two most recent mass movements in Iran’s history: the 1979 Revolution that brought the clerics to power, and the 2009 mass protests, known as the Green Movement, that threatened the foundation of the same clerical rule. The film presents interviews with Ivan Marovic, a founder of OTPOR, the Serbian movement that ended the rule of Slobodan Milosevic and Mohsen Sazgara, a founding member of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, among other activists."

Iran vs the world
by Arj on Sat Aug 13, 2011 04:58 PM PDTA lot of the points the Serbian guy makes are valid. But unfortunately Iran can not be comapred to Serbia. In Serbia, both sides of the argument were secular, therefore taking a patriotic stance was considered a virtue. Whereas, In Iran there is a theocratic regime who is using religious values as an alternative counterweight to patriotism. Accordingly the value system that is the driving force behind its repressive aparatus is not necessarily the same as the opposition's and/or general public. This not only helps entranch the oppressive forces, but it alienates the secular opposition from the said forces. Hence, not all the approaches he recommends should be expected work with IRI!
I agree with Amirparviz
by omeedvar on Sat Aug 13, 2011 12:39 PM PDTHere is an example: Germany will become Islamic State, says Chancellor Merkel
According to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung daily, Chancellor Angela Merkel said that Germans have failed to grasp how Muslim immigration has transformed their country and will have to come to terms with more mosques than churches throughout the countryside. "Our country is going to carry on changing, and integration is also a task for the society taking up the task of dealing with immigrants,” Ms. Merkel told the daily newspaper. “For years we've been deceiving ourselves about this. Mosques, for example, are going to be a more prominent part of our cities than they were before.”
Germany, with a population of 4-5 million Muslims, has been divided in recent weeks by a debate
Over remarks by the Bundesbank's Thilo Sarrazin, who argued Turkish and Arab immigrants were failing to integrate and were swamping Germany with a higher birth rate.
The Chancellor’s remarks represent the first official acknowledgement that Germany , like other European countries, is destined to become a stronghold of Islam. She has admitted that the country will soon become a stronghold. In France , 30% of children age 20 years and below are Muslims. The ratio in Paris and Marseille has soared to 45%. In southern France , there are more mosques than churches.
The situation within the United Kingdom is not much different. In the last 30 years, the Muslim population there has climbed from 82,000 to 2.5 million. Presently, there are over 1000 mosques throughout Great Britain - many of which were converted from churches.
In Belgium , 50% of the newborns are Muslims and reportedly its Islamic population hovers around 25%. A similar statistic holds true for The Netherlands. It’s the same story in Russia where one in five inhabitants is a Muslim.
Muammar Gaddafi recently stated that “There are signs that Allah will grant victory to Islam in Europe without a sword, without a gun, without conquest. We don’t need terrorists; we don’t need homicide bombers. The 50 plus million Muslims (in Europe ) will turn it into the Muslim Continent within a few decades.” The numbers support him.
I think the Muslims are smarter than the Europeans. Muslims will reproduce like rabbits but the Islamic Countries do not need to feed the Muslims. Send them to European Countries and let the Europeans feed them and bring them up. Now who is "smarter"??

"Death to Dictator" (Dictator, being the chief thief and killer, khamenei himself) was one of the key slogans shouted by Iranian youth during the 2009 uprising against the islamist regime. The message is clear: The thieves and murderers in charge of islamist regime and their joke of a "Republic" must go, either on first class british airways flight to their swiss, london and french riviera mansions, or at the ends of long ropes, hung by their necks outside the chinese and russian embassies in Tehran. the choice is theirs...
"Personal business must yield to collective interest."
This stuff doesn't work in tyrannies that are well funded.
by amirparvizforsecularmonarchy on Fri Aug 12, 2011 07:32 PM PDTIf Irans oil exports were stopped regime would fall in a matter of weeks.
But the west loves islam for iran and there is no consensus for that.
I believe Irans problems today are greater than its patriotic leadership can solve.
Islam will still be in power for another 30 years likely, unless the USA can't find a way to contain the regime and it starts ww3, which is a real possibility due to irans strategic military importance for the top powers.
