Give It Up Palestine Chest Beaters

Onlyiran

If the “Quds Day” protests showed anything it was that the Iranian population is sick and tired of the Palestinian issue being used as a toll of oppression by the IRI against them.  It was also a message to the regime and its supporters, a lot of whom we see on this site beating their chests for Palestine.  And the message is this:  We don’t care!  We want freedom first.  Then we can talk about Palestine.

So why don’t you pack it up and find a better way of scaring people into submission?  It just doesn’t work anymore.  The Palestinian issue is for Arabs to resolve. It has nothing to do with us.  You can try to connect the issue to the uprising is Iran, but the two are like oil and water, they don’t mix.  And the Iranian people sent you a message to that effect loud and clear when they ripped up Hezbollah posters on the streets and chanted “Marg bar Roosieh” instead of “marg bar Israel”.

Not that the Palestinians don’t have legitimate grievances with Israel, but WTF?  Why do we have to be the sacrificial lambs for this issue?  Let the Arabs and the Israelis duke it out, and let the best side win.

Thank you again

by yolanda on

Thank you again for your article! Your article reminds me of a protest video I watched a couple of days ago on Iranian.com

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozU5KTSyh7c&feature=player_embedded

The slogan is "No Gaza, No Lebanon, I die for Iran!"

I just happen to like Iran more!!!! If team Melli plays against Israel or Palestine, I will root for team Melli for sure!! Of course, team melli is not allowed to play against Israel anyway.

I look forward to your next article.

thanks,

yolanda

I know where you are coming from, my statement was not meant as support for Palestine at this juncture when our own brave youth are being mowed down.

I was speaking generally, since love and compassion in my book, knows no boundaries. Anywhere there is injustice and brutality pains me as it would of my own country women and men.

Call me sentimental ;-0)

I wrote this short blog for people to express their opinions on this issue.  I expressed mine.  Everyone should be free to express their views.  Stop attacking and accusing each other of things and have a civilized discussion.  Thanks.

FYI/Qud's Agents Responsability in Dr. Bakhtiar's Assassination

by Darius Kadivar on

Shapour Bakhtiar was murdered in Paris, France by Iranian Qods (Ghods) agents.

Here is an Audio Document by Filmmaker Sohrab Akhavan interviewing an Iranian serving in French Police. I leave the validity or not of the claims to your own personal judgment :

One of the Assassin's of Bakhtiar is still held in France and was refused to be Delivered to the Iranian government for the return of a French Student Clothild Reiss.

You say "we don't have the resources to solve the whole world problems"

So now all the problems with human rights in China must be resolved that you put your resources to solve Iran's problem!

Remember our old discussion about hypocrisy where you apologized and deleted your comment?

So what happened? Short memory?

 

Before someone like Afshin Afshar comes to Yolanda's rescue again:

This comment is aimed at the hypocrisy of the individual and not meant to stop people to voice their objection to human rights violations anywhere. I have noticed over and over again that some of our members just love to change the subject and accuse people of many things, so to avoid any misunderstanding from their part:

Human rights violators should be singled out and condemned by all, whether it's IRI, Israel or China!

but someone claiming to be chinese and lecturing Iranians to concentrate their resources on their own country is called hypocrisy!

What you think is not a matter of concern to me.

If you can not be sensitive to plight of humanity in the other parts of this ever contracting world, how can you claim to be sympathetic to the plight of your own hamvatans?

How does one draw line in HUMANITY and COMPASSION?

I like every word in your article except "WTF" (LOL)! I agree with you 100% that we should put Iranian people's interest 1st, we don't have the resources to save the whole world!

Mollah jan: You're a silly

by vildemose on

Mollah jan: You're a silly child. I won't play your idiotic game anymore. And I really don't care whether you think I'm a jooooo or a zionist or whatever hateful epithet you Islamist use. What you think is not a matter of concern to me.

 


Mola Nasredeen

vildemose,

by Mola Nasredeen on

OK, maybe you're Iranian and living in Israel, right?

Or maybe in United State and you are a Zionist Jew. So your sympathy goes for the "Chosen People" off course.


vildemose

Mollah: why do you think I

by vildemose on

Mollah: why do you think I care about an Islamist supporter of the murderous IRI's opinion? Suppose, I was a zionist, Jew, which I'm not, I would have continued supporting Ahmadinejad until I get what I want, which is destruction of Iran,  as most neocons do support Ahmadinjad and his cabal (i.e. Parry et al).

As I said before, Mollah, Fight your won fight for Palestinians, don't shed the blood of my family in Iran for your stupidity. There are 4500 Palestinian/Arabs in Iran toruting, mrudering Iranians that's why I don't care about your cause anymore...Be a man and fight your own war.

Adam bayad khejalat bekeshe ke fekr koneh mitouneh az digaron ro azash sooestfadeh koneh bekhtere manfeae khodesh. Mollah, I don't believe for a minute, you care about Iran or Iranians, only the IRI because you think IRI is your ticket to take your terretories or whatever it is you're fighting.

Frankly, I couldn't care less what happens to the two cousins in the ME> as long as they leave Iran alone.

Mola Nasredeen

Dear vildemose,

by Mola Nasredeen on

Why do I get the impression that you are a non Iranian Zionist Jew?

Because everytime that Palestine or Israel is mentioned you pop up and try to "Stand UP For Israel". Please expand on that.

Dear beloved xerexes: Why

by vildemose on

Dear beloved xerexes: Why don't you go to Gaza and fight if you feel so strongly about their plight.Why do you want to bring war on Iran because of these false bravados?? You and your paymaster's hubris will cause unspeakable death and destruction in the region; You want war and bloodshed, you will get it if you continue your idiotic self-rightousness. The IRI and People like you are in no position to talk about justice and humanity.

Beloved, do you really think your pain will ease if you kill a few Israeli or Americans??  That's what you're really after, isn't it?? Don't let your lust for revenge turn you into the monsters you abhor. You sound more callous and shrill everyday and I do hope you join the liberation fight in Palestine instead of hollow rhetoric.


Rebecca

Right On!

by Rebecca on

OnlyIran! You are right on!

Recent survey of people of Gaza has shown that even Palestinians don't want someone like Ahmadi to become their spokesman.

IRAN FIRST!

beside the fact that regime is nothing but a tazi parast regime any way,
fact of the matter is they have nothing else to offer people socially, politically
and economically, so they got to create an scapegoat and keep people busy with
it and what better scapegoat than Jews any way!.

It has nothing to do with human rights, compassion and all that stuff. You notice
the silence of IRI lackeys when it comes to: suffering of other fellow Muslim
people. Not one word about Russian atrocities in Chechnya, not a word about Chinese
repression in Tibet or Eastern Turkestan, not a word about mass killings of Kurds
in Iraq and Turkey, not a word about Bosnian Muslims, Sudan , you name it list goes on and on...

So my friend, if it act's like phony, talks like phony, it is phony or
better yet it's IRI!.


XerXes

Doesn't matter

by XerXes on

We can strive for freedom in Iran and still care for the unfair and unjust actions done to the Palestinians. Unlike many people in the West, we are aware about it so silence is a crime.
On the other note, i think iran should continue her support for the palestinains b/c in the long term we will come out as the better nation. it's a long term deal that we will gain, although right now we are not. that's ok, let IR give israel some hell, so what? they deserve some checks and balances.
vildemose, you read those sites? raise your standards dude. however, if true it will tell you that iranians should continue their support to the palestinainas as their freedom loving people do the same for iran.


Mola Nasredeen

Yes, Onlyiran, I feel your pain but...

by Mola Nasredeen on

I ask President Obama the same thing: "Mr President why do you spend all these energy over Peace in Middle East?"

I ask it from the white parents of the dead American youngsters shot by Israeli soldiers while demonstrating against the building of the wall that surrounds the natives like a huge wall, a concentration camp, a prison?

I ask It from Jewish intellectuals and thinkers who are labled anti semite for criticising the policy of enslavement of Palestinians by the Zionist Israeli government.

I ask it from United Nations in 1970s when it decalred "ZIONISM IS RACISM".

I asked it from President Carter when he called Israel and Apartheid regime where a race based law classifies and separates people accoding to their race. The Jews in this case are the Superior Race and the rest the Inferior Race.

They each would project their own viewpoints. And they are all valid. Onlyiran, It's for you to dig deeper to understand why millions of Iranians went to the streets and demanded "INDEPENCE, FREEDOM, JUSTICE FOR PALESTINE while the Greens demonstrated too.

Message of Solidarity to the People of Iran by Mubarak Awad

My Dear People of Iran,

For the past thirty years, the Iranian regime has used the cause of the Palestinian people as a way to distract from its own oppressive rule. I thank the people of Iran for showing their support over the years with the people of Palestine, especially because on this day of Qods, the people of Iran suffer under the kind of unelected oppression that is comparable in some ways to that suffered by Palestinians.

As a Palestinian, life-long fighter for the freedom and independence of Palestine and a leader of the first Palestinian intifada, I strongly condemn the Iranian regime’s violations of human rights and repeated use of violence against the nonviolent Iranian protesters, activists and prisoners. I stand in complete solidarity with and support for the Iranian people and am confident that with their resilience, they will achieve a free and democratic Iran to raise their children in and have a good life.

In unity,
Mubarak Awad
