اراده مردم

اپوزیسیون باید به جای صرف نیروی خود دربارهی جنگ، به امر تغییر رژیم از طریق انتخابات آزاد اهمیت دهد. اقداماتی که امروز از سوی اپوزیسیون در ایران میشود در تایید این هوشیاری است، طبیعی است که کار بسیار سختی در پیش است و رژیم جمهوری اسلامی به راحتی رخت برنخواهد بست. اگر هم برود ساختن این جامعهی باقی مانده از فقر ، هرج و مرج و فساد، کار یک فرد و یک جناح و یک سازمان به تنهایی نیست و نیاز به همکاری و همیاری همهی افراد و نیروهای اپوزیسیون و نیاز به یک همبستگی بزتگ میهنی دارد و این همبستگی چه بهتر که از امروزصورتگیرد.>>>

San Francisco meets Iranian culture

Two nights of film screenings, three nights of theatre, food, dance parties, one black tie Gala (hosted by philanthropist Bita Daryabari, Mayor Gavin Newsom, and Ross Mirakrimi just to name a few) a book store, and a morning of panel discussions and keynotes about Iranian Literature.

A lonely song

It was hot in the desert
a heat as sharp as the steel
of my financial defeat.

In the deep end of the bar

sticking my back to the seat. >>>
