King Reza the 3rd's Dossier/Masmali!

by Dr. Mohandes on

All This whitewashing and eviscerating the anatomy of a dysfunctional system is not going to matter at all, Not one bit. You and anyone else are wasting your time trying to Philosophize and Justify as to what happened and by whom and Why!! Who the f...cares.

Not that it would have made a substantial difference but the reason he did not run in 2009 was not because he, out of the goodness of his heart decided to back off and bump mousavi up, It was because THEY DID NOT LET THEM. The same Mafioso gang. ... a Better messenger of freedom My sweet Petuity! 

People go to the ballots so they can have their Seh jelds Stamped, and that is all that there is to it, so plain and so simple.

Kingreza3 & defense of Khatami!! huh...

by Disenchanted on

Just when I thought we have seen it all on Iranian.com! :-) Jenaabe Reza Shahe sevvom, your first premise is where you go wrong: "It's ironic that some who voted in an election is called anti democratic by loving democrats...". .....The key word is election! I don't consider that an election. Do You? I guess we don't need to go further than that! (Yup, I heard that iPad 3 is not quite well versed in iran's politics either! :-). So I blame it on Ipad)

by Kingreza3 on

It's ironic that some who voted in an election is called anti democratic by loving democrats that are mostly American citizen and have signed a document swearing that they have no attachment to their prior citizen ship.
Let's review what khatami has done.
During his presidency the tendency to jail, eliminate opposition with out due process was stopped. Don't get excited about this comment and write about how we still have shit load of prisoners as that's not his branch and we are not criticising Judicial branch. I am talking about 6000 type elimination. Actually they talked about capital punishment for political activist but i don't recall any actually been done.
During his presidency even with halting enrichment he ended up not getting any thing in return which caused ahmadinejad resuming the enrichment.
He was the first president that was elected without blessing from supreme leader. Reason was even though he was a mullah, he resigned his post as ershad minister due to restrictions. If was then that people grew balls to criticize the system and listen to opposition tv.
He was the president that ghatlhaye zanjireye was exposed and gave ganji enough courage to destroy one of the power polls in iran (Rafsanjani) he has later said he was talking about khamenei back then but bullshit 1 he didn't think khamenei wants to get involved and he thought this power mafia that exist would be gone with out Rafsanjani. He was wrong.
he was the one that even though he had a better chance of beating ahmadinejad in the election he yielded to mosavi because he thought he would be a better messenger of freedom for Iran.
And now he has realized this bipolar political environment is only helping the enemy and he is trying to calm the country so they can go back to the ballot to fight the power mafia. I think he is trying to run for the next election as all your green movement pretty much has no one left. Mosavi could have re ran for the next term and didnt make it so black and white. Yeah yeah democracy but let's have a country called Iran first and then try to have democracy in it.
I can go on and on about khatami but the soak reason that we had green movement was because of him and your problem with him is that he refused to be hero since it was clear to him that heroes have hurt the country in the long run and as he said once he has sworn to this constitution which he used effectively to promot democracy.

این سِد مّمد از جَلَبْ نابِکارانِ روزگار است،لعنتی کمانچِه کِشیِ‌ فریب خوردگانِ سبز را کرد و در خفا ماله کشیِ‌ ولایتِ وَقیح !

این درسِ عِبرتی باشد برای آن دسته از ملت که همچنان در اندر خَمِ یک کوچه از حَوالی نادانی‌ و بی‌ خبری هستند ... جمع کنید این بساطِ شِکر خوری را که دیگر گندش دَرآمده است.

خداوند آخر و عاقبتِ ما ایرانیان را با این دسته نا ایرانیان به خِیر سازد.

Never trust a Mullah!

by G. Rahmanian on

Never trust a Mullah unless he denounces the crimes committed by the regime in Tehran.

Why always link the IRI crimes against Iranians

by Doost daaram pas hastam on

to the conflict between Israel and Palestinians? There is no logical reason for that. And why just that conflict? Why not Chevhnya, Rwanda?

corrections: seat[S] at ICC....

by Bavafa on

The suspects for crimes against humanity are not limited to the crimes that is taking place in Iran but also those grave crimes against humanity that is taking place in Palestine for decades and the war crimes in Gaza residence during the last war by IDF (operation cast lead) which killed over 1200 people, of which 410 children under 16, 108 women, 113 elderly men, 14 medics and 4 Journalist.  In contrast, 13 Israeli died of which 10 were soldiers and 3 civilian.

'Hambastegi' is the main key to victory

Who cares about this clown or what he is up to!!

by Soosan Khanoom on

Khatami is the main reason that Iran is in this international mess today ... If any war happens Khatami should be held responsible.  He destroyed the hope that many Iranians had and flushed all their votes down the toilet... He is an ASSHOLE !!!!

This accessory to crimes against humanity has a reserved seat at ICC. It is only a matter of time.
