Current Events

Cry me a river!

      Nonsense! Execution of bunch of rapist has nothing to do with IRI. Shah regime would have done the same!

      These rotten animals raped women in front of their husbands and children. Now stop all these noises,

       Banning capital punishment is by no means universally accepted. It has nothing to do with religion or Islam or Iran. I am an advocate of it in cases of clear evidence of ones guilt of certain crimes.

      Either you believe humans have a soul or you think they are machines. In either case I advocate execution when one has crossed a line and is rotten in the core.

      These people deserved death for ruining lives of many families for years to come. Those children who saw their mothers being raped will suffer for rest of their life and would never have a normal future. Families will be shattered. So please stop those tears for the criminals. If you have compassion focus on the victims not the criminals.

          Punishment of people for expressing their opinions and dissent is not acceptable in any form and shape. When it comes to criminals in the society that is a totally different story and mixing the two is very misguided.

     People who look at this and call it "triumph of evil" dont know what they are talking about! These people were the evil and got what they deserved, Stop the intellectual, sentimentalism and drama. Justice is done for a change and justice is a GOOD thing!

........

IRI says these 4 men crashed a party and tied up all the guys, and raped several women.....

Statira

Those criminals who commited rape were savages and thousands of people who come to watch the execution with their toddlers are not any better.

Alright but how about millions who did not come to watch it. Those millions who shudder in disgust and horror at these actions. Where do they stand now.

I agree Fouladvand was one of a kind and wish he had not gone back. It was a risky thing and he would have done better here as a leader. I am all for rallying his supporters but not that kind of risk. I mean what chance did he have?

But it was his choice and I resepct it. I still hope against odds he is alive. That one day after IRR is gone we find him alive. I know it is a pipe dream but I am allowed to dream. Anyway thanks for the information. You verified what I was afraid has happened.

The followers of Anjomane Padeshahi insist on not discussing whether Foualdvand was killed or not becsuse they feared news of his death would destroy morale as he was the heart and sould of the organisation. There's no doubt he has been killed and his death was not announced by the IR so as not to make him a martyr, which is what he wanted. He is doing what many people are urging Reza Pahlavi to do which is rally his supporters and take Iran. Fouladvand's son revealed he last heard from his father soon after he disappeared when he received a telephone call from his captors warning him not to publicize his disappearence. He heard his father's voice saying 'pesaram' and the phone was taken away from him.
Fouladvand was one of a kind. Unlike Hakha and the other TV generals he did what he was going to say and paid with his life. A great man indeed.

zeebajune: Our parents

I have to say were a bunch of idiots or at least had a lot of idiots among them. I still cannot believe they fell for the Khomeini nonsense. But we still got people talking about Shah as a tyrant right here.

There is something romantic about

being executed at dawn, rather than dusk with a little child gawping into one's eyes at the last second of one's last breath.

Life, so terribly exciting and the choices! Argh, the choices!

Dear COP

Yes but not all the way.

Yes that the murders are to scare the *** out of people. It does work for a while. But it will fail in time specially when the regimes shows weakness. This will happen either after Khamenei is dead or killed. 

No that people do not consider these guys a "Mohareb". They consider them some poor sucker who got made an "example" of. They are of course thankful it is not them or their family. But they won't forget what is happening.

When regimes do these things they invite violent reactions. It is simple rule of physics. Put a lid on a pot of water then turn up the heat. The harder the lid the longer it takes and the more violent it will blow.

The part about it blowing is not in question it is a matter of when. Khamenei is taking a very big risk. He is alone in the world and not even AN is behind him. We may yet see him hanging off a crane with cheering mobs throwing rocks.

The filthy savage deserves it all.

Barbaric act.

OMG..are we really ask for this savages to run our country?, or perhaps we did something  wrong. no I know what happened our parents ask for so called revolution and we are paying the price..Like MLK said I have a dream ,to see what this regime doing to people ,do same thing to them...

.

Not Executions, but exterminations!

If you expect this regime to play nice, you're more naive than a turkey taking walk in the middle of the road in a Thanksgiving Parade! The regime kills indescriminantly and uses these killings IN THE PUBLIC to get rid of even a hint of opposition.

Results? People will think twice before they pour out in the streets again. To most of the spectators, a criminal, a mohareb is being put to death. As long as it is not them, they're happy, I suppose.

On a side note do you know for sure Dr Fouladvand is gone? I know he is missing and most likely got captured by IRI. But do you know if he was killed. He was a real hero and a shame to have lost him for us all.

Darius

I have already apologised Darius incase you failed to read my posts. Its not healthy to bear grudges. In any case I wasn't expecting a response but posting a comment.In relation to your criticism.of my lack.of loyalty? Lack of loyalty to what exactly? An heir to the throne who insists that he does not wish to be referred to his Royal title in public and offers no solutions but the usual civil disobedience claptrap. I am not the only monarchist tired of Reza Pahlavi as the late Dr Fouladvand and the Kingdom Assembley have disowned and denounced him. Unfirtunately, for all your knowledge of constitutional monarchies you fail to grasp that the European model to which you aspire to cannot be readily implemented in an Iranian society and it has never been. You have tried in vain to answer the question as to whether Reza Shah was a traitor for betraying the Qajar King and overthrowing this crooked dynasty which was the singular most heroic act any one did for Iran. I am a monarchist but blindly following an ideal without questioning one's belief is no bettter than the brain washed fanatical mass which turns up for Khamenei's sermons. My support for a monarchy cannot cloud my judgement that people like Kamal Ataturk, a president of a republic, was worthy of greatness even though he could have been a sultan like the Ottomans.Iran comes first. Iranians whether republicans or monarchists come first. If and when a referendum comes I will vote for a monarchy but will be more than happy to accept a republic if that is to be the choice of the people. Even Shahzadeh (if I may call him that) Reza Pahlavi says the same thing.Anyway sorry about before and chill out.

Khomeini shahr

      It used to be called "Sedeh" meaning three villages......................Later it became Homayoon shahr ...............and finally it was named Khomeini Shahr..........

       Brutal public murder in the presence of young children ..........all state sanctioned....

Satatira

Keep on kicking the Iranian people when they are down. How kind of you and how brave. Iranians wanted a democracy. If you remember Khomeini promised to go out of politics. To give people all kinds of freedoms. He lied. 

Iranians are not barbaric they were naive. That I do blame the older generation for. This generation is enslaved to the Basiji armed force. Will you be willing to take them on? If not then don't blame others for not risking their lives.

A barbaric nation

wants a barbaric government. We have to accept the fact that Shah was too civilized for us that's why we kicked him out.

This barbaric behavior must stop....

This shameful practice must stop one way or another.

A few things

This is of course a sickening display of savagery. But why blame the victims. Nader implies they deserved it why? Do you know them and if so how. What did they do and why do they deserve it. 

As for Republic vs Monarchy the VF regime is neither. It is a theocracy run by a religious freak. Neither Republics nor Monarchies today act like this. In fact I don't know many places that do. Put the blame where it belongs.

Public executions as means of terrorising the masses.

Is a favourite tool of all fascist dictatorships with complete lack of popular support or credibility. The fact remains that behind the scenes, in secret,  the islamist fascists are killing many more Iranians.  

"Personal business must yield to collective interest."

Side shows!

Ironically, the more public the persecutions (i.e. executions, floggings, stonings, dismemberments...) become, the deeper the state affairs sink into secrecy! What is supposed to be out in the open for the public to know (i.e. transprency on government corruption and the theft of national treasury) is being obscured by such freak shows that are of IRI's own making to begin with!

Who Told you you were entitled to a response ?

Apologize for your past behavior and recurrent Obnoxious attitude and I may be willing to respond to your questions and engage in a adult debate worthy of a genuine intellectual exchange and conclusion.

Otherwise don't expect me to respond to you on any issue whatsoever. I had an answer for all of your distorted comments in the past including on the previous blog on Niall Ferguson or the One you made on Sadat not being invited to the Persepolis ceremonies in the thread of another blogger ( It would have put your ignorance to shame as it did when you tried to embarrass me on another News Item engaging "KADIVAR" to respond with the link you provided on Libya and which you hadn't even bothered to read and proved to contradict what you were actually suggesting --- hence why I find engaging with you on any subject is a waste of time and energy and not because I don't have an answer which you most of the time ignore or pretend not to understand). But Knowing your recurrent behavior I chose not to respond. So don't expect one here either.

For We don't belong to the same school of thought nor the same political family.

There can be no "hambasteghi" with unreliable folks like you who pursue contradictory goals and change sides so quickly. This would be true whether you were a so called Monarchist ( which you are not) or a Republican ( which you probably are).

That's one of the reasons you fail to rally anyone around you. You lack discipline, coherence but most importantly Loyalty.

The Price You Pay to Lead

The best job for your kind would at best be to distribute pamphlets in the street, or work for some Voter Registration office and or pay a membership fee to the political party of your choice rather than play a role of responsibility or decision making within the ranks of that party. Hence the impossibility of having undisciplined personalities like yours on board of any Political staff let alone future government.

I suggest you to Join NIAC that's a better place fit for your politically "amateurish" likes ...

But even there you would be refused because at least they understand the importance of the term LOYALTY !

Except they owe it to the wrong King and Constitution ...

//iranian.com/main/2011/oct/khamenei-endorses-scrapping-presidency

As for You and your likeminds you deserve to sit on the Solution you are suggesting:

Major Kong Rides the Bomb

For At least that way you would have the benefit of Accountability!

Best,

DK

Darius

What you are implying is that all revolutions and repubics are synonymous with terror and hangings and that monarchies are humanitarian. So there's never been tyrants in history who were Kings or Queens. That is an absurd sweeping generalisation when the Qajar filfth had almost destroyed Iran and its last Shah cared little about Iran and wanted to spend more time in Europe.
The catastrophe which has befallen Iran has less to do with chosing a republic as a form of governance but more to do with allowing ISlamists and mullahs to get their foot into power. Don't forget if Reza Shah had it his way the monarchy would have been abolished but it was the power of the Ulema which saved it.
Reza Khan would have been a great President or a King . Ultimately, as monarchists we can only advocate the idea to people but not shove it to people by ramming it down their throat.

Ideal place for savagery!

You would not expect anything else but savagery, death and destruction from a city named after of the biggest criminals of the 20th century.

This is, more or less in a nutshell, what Khomeini and his ideology has brought us in the past 30 odd years.

Down with the ENTIRE Islamic Republic!
