جنجال یا هو و خلیج پارس و مشگل تفرقه ها در ایران

  گرچه همه اینها توضیح واضحات است ولی بعضی وقت ها ما به شنیدن توضیح های واضحات هم احتیاج داریم زیرا که در بستر خود خواهی و غرور و تمامیت خواهی قرار گرفته ایم و داریم ادعایی میکنیم که انسانی دیگر نیست.

Seyed Ali's Wealth

Khamenei, in order to control his business, keeps people in some positions for a long time. >>>

Tipping point of Iranian movement is here

Mr. Khamenei is no good

For many years, Sayyid Ali Khamenei has ruled the country ostensibly to establish a virtuous society, promote equality among Iranians, provide prosperity and security in this world and ensure salvation in the other, and fight for egalitarianism and the cause of the downtrodden abroad. In practice, however, he has promoted wickedness instead of virtue; a cult of personality instead of equality; poverty, arbitrary rule, and engineered elections instead of prosperity, security, and the rule of law; and international brinkmanship and support for terrorism instead of peaceful diplomacy. Mr. Khamenei is no good for Iran; worse for the world; and a disaster for the religion>>>

Revolutionary rot

Too often we underestimate the sustainability of morally bankrupt regimes that have mastered the art of repression coupled with financial co-optation. In the cynical words of a scion of a powerful clerical family, who told me once: "When you have control over the oil revenue, you can run this country with a few million supporters and 20,000 people who are willing to kill and die for you." Maybe, though that formula did not work for the shah. There is some wisdom in the old adage that Iran's largest political party is the hezb-e baad, the "party of the wind." Iranians have historically gravitated toward where the most powerful political winds are blowing>>>

Dear Mahmoud

June 12th was the anniversary of the day that you and your military junta staged a coup. Fed up with previous four years of your presidency, our people came out in masses to vote and IR leadership decided to ignore this and choose the path of undemocratic means to dismiss their hopes. You know it. We know it. The world knows it. You were selected. If not – if you really claim to have earned the landslide 63% votes of that 85% high turn-out – why then, ever since, your government is using the most harsh methods to suppress the peaceful dissents?>>>

Pushing the boundaries

On the first anniversary of the Green Movement, there is a high level of uncertainty regarding the future which could only be evaluated by going towards the past. By now it is almost self-evident what engined this social transitional force. The Green Movement is a child of a social transformation in Iran which has started long before the rigged election on June 12th, 2009 and mostly initiated and supported by the young generation to reorient the country towards a modernization process>>>
