The Glory of Pre-Islamic Iran

Free - you are the one doing propaganda

if you are afraid of the truth, rely on lies. that seems to be the
motto of the  MKO and neo-cons attacking teh Iranian-American
community. I agree with you - watch the video- See how Dai admits that
he is close to teh neo-cons. See him say straight out that he believes
sanctions will hurt Iranians - but that he doesnt care.

The
tape is interupted to point out where Dai lies - due to the existance
of discovery email in which Dai admits his support for tthe eh MKO,
takes instructions from the neo-cons and gets advice on how he can
formulate his lies so that he doesn't get caught by America's libel
laws.

It is really a  revealing interview and I fully understand why you are so upset!

Mirdamadi, I smell a rat...

And that foul smell is coming from your stench of NIAC bias. NIAC is against the removal of the IRI -- they rather have a reformed IRI, yes, but not the end of the IRI. The IRI is a confidential underwriter of NIAC propaganda. This amateur video and your propaganda interruptions are asinine, foolish, and a prime example of the double-dealing sort of propaganda NIAC is famous for.

People like to watch a video of this sort and make their own conclusions, without having it interrupted a half-a-dozen times so that you can spoon-feed us your blatant propaganda. This was pathetic beyond pale, and makes me doubt the sencerity (and legitimacy) of the NIAC even more!

See what the Israelis are trying to do to Iran

See which Iranians are working with the Israelis and the neo-cons

Jamshid

Once again, thank you. That was refreshingly honest and true.  And thank you for your service to your beloved Iran.

Well said.

Anti-imperialism

That was an excellent testimony Jamshid. I truly appreciated.

It is in our instinct to be on the side of the weak. But it comes a time that we should realize the weakness is not imposed but is within. Coming from the weakness of moral compass, social goals and political objectives. Sixty odd years of cold war and 'anti-imperialism' rhetoric plus inherent reactionary influence of political Islam has taken its toll in the mindset of people of the region, Palestinians among them.

On the wake of 9/11, when Palestinians went on the street on jubilation, they were expressing the same state of mind, twisted by 'anti-imperialism' that they were expressing when Saddaam attacked Iran.

We have to target 'anti-imperialism' residue within and without, since Iran will not be freed by ignoring it. 

Regarding the Palestinian issue and Iranians

I was a staunch supporter of Palestinians in the past. Although I still support their and anybody else's cause for justice and right to self-rule, but I just am not as sensitive about the Palestinian issue as I used to be.

In late 1357, when Khomeini took over in Iran, we all know that he opened Iran's treasury (khazaaneh) to the Palestinians in form of money, clinics, weapons, you name it.

And I think that was fine, simply because people in Iran didn't mind it either.

Time passed and the Palestinians kept on enjoying Iran's, literally massive, generousities. Then in 1359, Sadam invaded Khuzestan.

In all honesty, I thought the Palestinians would remain neutral in the Iran-Iraq war. However, once Sadam hinted at sharing some of khuzestan's riches with the Palestinians, their leaders rushed to Sadam's side, without a moment of hesitation, while they were still being the receipients of Iran's generousities.

One could say that the Palestinian leaders headed by Arafat were stupid. But even those who were not in good terms with Arafat supported Sadam as well.

And as far as the ordinary Palestinians, with each of Sadam's victories and early annihilations of the Iranian defenses, the Palestinians jubilently poured into the streets and celebrated Sadam's victories, while they were still recieving aids from Iranians.

I wish it had stopped there, but sadly it didn't. Next, Palestinians sent thousands of "volunteers" to the front to join Sadam. Some of these volunteers were well trained commandos, others were just ordinary Palestinians.

And it wasn't only Palestinians who volunteered. There were Egyptians, Sudanese, Saudi Arabians, you name it.

Sadam always sent these volunteers to the front lines before sending in his organized army. That is why many of these volunteers would end up being captured by the Iranian forces. And in several occasions, I saw many of them with my own eyes during my time of service. Some of these volunteers were not even dressed in military uniforms and looked terribly scared, but they were generally treated humanly by the Iranians units.

After the news was spread about the Palestinian volunteers prisoners of war, it didn't sit well even for the members of Pasdararan units, let alone the rest of us who were serving in the regular army. The anger was there. The disappointment was there.

Naturally, the news reached the upper leaders of Iran as well. Why do you think Iran's aids to Palestinians were suspended in early 1360? It was resumed only afterwards and this time mostly for IRI's poltical agendas in the region and at a substantially reduced capacity.

These volunteers were not there to just watch. There were there to help the invasion by shooting and killing fellow Iranians who were rightfully defending their motherland.

The higher ranking officers as well as government officials were instructed to hush and sweep the whole affair under the rugs, as they could still find ways to milk the Palestinian issue to further other agendas. But they couldn't sweep the memories of tens of thousands of soliders who were exposed to these news directly or indirectly.

In late 1360, when Iraq was repelled, and Sadam's inablity to hold on to Khuzestan became imminent, the Palestinians recalled their volunteers and reconsidered their close alliance with Sadam. Of course, in this ordeal, it was Sadam who had the last laugh, not Arafat, and certainly not Iran.

The Palestinians lost my passion and many others' in the year 1360. Today, I still support their cause for peace and the right to self-rule, as true justice does not and should not recognize past memories, but today they are not as special as they once were for me, and their cause is no different than that of the Chechens or the African Sudanese.

Iranian culture vs Islam

It is unfortunate but true that Islam is now integrated into the Iranian culture. As much as I hate it that is reality. The good news is that we  have a vibrant non Islamic core.  I was watching the movie "Half Moon" the other night. The Kurdish Funeral was interesting. The chants were old Zoroastrian hymns and proved that our core is still Iranian. My greatest respect to the Kurds. The rest of us could learn something from them.

Samsam

I noticed that too, regarding Naser. Some of these people either don't know their Persian history (not even 20th century, believe me!), or they're just here to create confusion. Sadly, most Iranians don't even know some of the major players or key moments of the Constitutional movement, like Akhund Nouri and his long-lasting and debilitating influence on the actual document of the constitution, he was the Khomeini of his time. Nor do they comprehend the political climate of that day, with the Russians supporting Mohamad Ali Shah and even bombing the Majlis, and the British supporting the Constitutinal movement, up until they both forged a secret arrangement and sabotaged the movement altogether. Nor do they comprehend the significance of the Paris Peace Conference in 1919, which almost ended up carving Iran into 4 countries.

Believe it or not, all of these factors played key roles in the 1979 revolution. That's because the clergy (Ayatollahs) felt betrayed (rather, suckered) after the signing of the Constitutional Revolution by Muzzafar-e-din Shah on his death-bed in 1907. They felt that they had given away too much power, and conspired to never trust the "antellectuals" ever again (the Jebh-e-Meli crowd led by Sanjabi in 1979) and to regain their supremacy over Iran as they had for centuries before the Constitutional Revolution.

Naser, interestingly, was the first modern day Arab to advocate the Arab annexation of Khuzestan, and although he may have coined the false term for the Persian Gulf, actually Sheikh Khazal, at the instigation of the British who controlled the Abadan oil fields for decades, was the first to actually re-name Khuzestan "Arabistan" and toss around the phrase "Arabian Gulf," until the Great Reza Shah put an end to the Sheikh's shananigans.

Indeed, Naser was much more revolutionary than Sadat, who was much more of a statesman.

Malek-Naser?, Iranians & Arabs

Why don't you take Anvar Saadat or Malek-Naser?  

Either the blogger doesn,t know Malek Naser or he/she is talking about some one else, I dont know but the Malek that I know is the modern godfather of Pan-Arabism & Persian as immortal enemy syndrom. He is the first Arab leader who coined the term Arabian Gulf.

btw* the issue is not Arab animosity against Iranians but our long held native Ommaties infatuation with Arab cause who like leeches & like a "kanneh" follow them & identify with em. It is not the Arab's fault that we constantly follow their trends & have set our language & culture as a mere bad copy of theirs. To Arabs, Iranian is a mere pest ex-subject who never goes away. They didn,t even accept IRI application to join the Arab league which in itself is a comedy of history.

You're Wrong about All

1. Palestinians didn't help Khomeini, Arafaat did. Palestinians are women, children and millions of good, decent people with no hate for Iranians.

2. Arabs don't hate Iran, they in fact always treated Iran and Iranians well. The reason you feel this way is because you take likes of Saddam Hussain and call him the representative of the whole Arab world. Why don't you take Anvar Saadat or Malek-Naser? why take a terrorist or a dictator as Arabs' representative?

3. In exchange for the money IRI is giving to Hamas or Hezbollah it's buying their military support in case of Israeli attack on Iran. Be sure that if it wasn't for the 30,000 Hezbollah and thousands of Hamas troops and Syrian friends by Israeli borders Iran would have been hit by Israel by now. But all our neighbors got attacked and we're sitting there unharmed.

4. I don't think like you claiming "They're Arabs" or "They didn't help us" so screw them lets help ourselves. That's wrong. I say they're human just like us, their homeland is occupied and their freedom taken away, as other humans we're responsible to help them with no expectation for payback or even appreciation because as humans we should do what's right simply for the sake of being right not as a business deal and trade.

5. Yes Seyyeds/Mullahs are the enemy of Iran, or most of them are, but don't ever mistake "Israel" as "Jews". Israel is not "Jews" Israel is "The Zionists and Jews they invited and bribed into occupied Palestine". The original Jewish population of Palestine were only 30,000 in 1890 when there were 250,000 Arabs were living there. The Zionists used religious stories, 2000 year old exile of few jews and Holocaust as the excuse to attack and occupy Palestine.

How true!!

Right on, Free.

Ayhab,

Better to be labeled Bi-mokh by you than to be laughed by an entire site as a hatred bi-kar like Ayhab!!

But since you went thru all the trouble

No

But since you went trough all the trouble of new name and what nots, here is what Lincoln said.............

There is  a sucker[aka Bi-Mokh, aka Free of Mind], born every hour.

Ring any bell?

Have yourself a wonderful evening my young Bi-Mokh ;-)

Free of Mind aka Sha'aban Bimokh are you 16 yet

I never got arround asking you?

How old are you? 16 yet?

-YT 

Ayhab,

Lincoln also said that "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."

You speak a lot and have removed all doubts about your intelligence abilities.

Free.... You wanna know what Lincoln said?

You have to ask me nicely before I can tell you that..... ;-)

Only an IRI fascist

would quote Hitler!

You IRI fascists are too easy!

Hitler said..

Make a big lie, repeat it enough number of times, every one will believe it.

Free, keep repeating your TRUTH.

-YT 

Yes yes. Continue to repeat it. Quantity of lies makes truth.

Keep it up clown. I'm happy to have you attack me. You demonstrate exactly the problem Iranians have had for years. This type of ugly stuff has to happen. It's part of the process. You're super Iranian and super patriotic and just a touch fascistic. Not like the shah-IRI model at all. LOL.

I only report the truth,

you're the one who threw in the Hugo Chavez mistress bit to make this a joke -- it's not. It's the truth -- you are an IRI sympathizer!

You forgot to mention I'm an IRI agent and sympathizer

And Hugo Chavez's mistress. Keep up the attacks. You're pathetic and bankrupt. 

Remember all,

Marge is not Iranian, so don't listen to the biased filth that comes out of her mouth. She's Palestinian! Iran is not her concern!

Move on, Marge, your scam has been exposed. Go to a Palestinian website and spew your irrational hatred.

Love Israel for their lustful relations with Mojaheds

What they did after ahmadinejad's election was disgraceful, but when has grace ever been a priority for the Israeli thugs? They immediately contacted the Mojahed whores and planted some fake documents. The Western media ate it up like a fat kid on a diet with a cake.

Pre-Iraq invasion rhetoric since. Thanks Israel! Give us the tax money back now! Gutless cowards couldn't even face the music about their illegal nukes in DC. To hell with them for sure! 

خوب حالا اینها که اینهمه برای

فلسطین جوش میزنند چرا نمیرند اونجا بجنگند؟  دیالله .  بلند شید از تو انگلیس و آمریکا.  هی‌ نشستید اینجا هارت و پورت میکنید و هر چی‌ جمهوری اسلامی بهتون گفت میاید نشخوار مینکنید.  برید سفارت جمهوری اسلامی، یک چفیهٔ چهار خونه فلسطینی هم بندازید رو دوشتون و بگید میخواهید برید فلسطین جهاد کنید.  شاید براتون بلیط هواپیما هم بخرند.  

OnlyIran, exactly!

Beautifully delivered! Specially this part: "So, it is really insulting to us to see people like Marge, Niloufar Parsi, No Fear and other so-called "citizens of the world" and "humanists" constantly shed crocodile tears for Palestinians, Iraqis, Afghanis, etc, and then call themselves Iranians without having the slightest concern for what is happening to the people of Iran."

This is exactly why this issue irks me so much, I can't remember a single time -- NOT ONCE! -- that Marge criticized the savagery that followed the fraudulent elections. She's always so smug and above it all when it comes to the suffering of the people in Iran. She bleeds a deluge of tears everyday on this site for her godforsaken "Gazans" or her poor Iraqis, but never for the scores of Nedas and Sohrabs and Zahra Kazamis in Iran (I hope to God their names will never be forgotten)!

Never a peep about the savagery going on in Darfur (by Arab terrorists), no peep about Russian crimes or Chinese crimes against Tibet and in the continent of Africa -- but the second Marge smells the slightest negative news about Israel of America, she gets up on her seedy soap box and her filthy bolangoo and rails ruthlessly against her enemies -- viciously and without mercy! Have you ever seen how she denigrates Reza Pahlavi? Who is she to unmercifully attack a man who's not guilty of a single crime, and yet, she gives a free pass to murderers and rapists like Ahmadinejad and Khamanei!

That is revolting, despicable, shameless, cruel, evil, disgusting and purely self-serving! You all know who you are -- the real enemies of Iran!

The problem is selective "humanity"

I do not believe that anyone with even a small bit of conscience will dispute the fact that the Palestinian are victims of a horrible apartheid system.  That goes without saying.  However, when it comes to "Marge" and people like her, the problem is not the fact that they claim to sympathize with the Palestinian and Iraqi plight, but rather the fact that their humanity appears to be pretty selective.

As I pointed out to "Marge" on a different thread, I would like her to show us one comment, just one, that she posted on this site objecting to Iranians being shot, beaten and attacked by IRI thugs on the streets in the post election violence.  She has so far failed to do.  And I challenge everyone to look at the hundreds of threads and video posts on that subject on this site.  If you find one such comment by her, then please, by all means, prove me wrong.  

If you call yourself a "humanist" and a "citizen of the world", then you should at least try to show a bit of sympathy for other citizens of the world, such as...let's say...Iranians.  

So, it is really insulting to us to see people like Marge, Niloufar Parsi, No Fear and other so-called "citizens of the world" and "humanists" constantly shed crocodile tears for Palestinians, Iraqis, Afghanis, etc, and then call themselves Iranians without having the slightest concern for what is happening to the people of Iran.

Lastly, I would love to see these "humanists" and a "citizens of the world" discuss other crimes against humanity on this site.  There have been five million dead in Congo, more in the past five years than the entire history of the Israeli / Palestinian conflict.  Have we heard a peep out of these "humanists" about those atrocities? None, zich, nada!  But boy, are they all over the place when there is the slightest "dirt" that can be found on the U.S. or Israel.  talk about hidden agendas!!!
