I'm still here and I have 50 more accounts to fall back on should the need arise. Resistance is futile! ;-)

Sophia,

I guess you know your client got blocked again.

About Nur /Faryarm

First of all, thanks for your post, Faryarm. Bezaie's freedom to choose his own religion (or lack thereof..) reminds us all once again how liberal the Bahai are. His genius and humanity prove what an outstanding upbringing and education he had.

One time last year I drafted a blog called 'The Bahai Converted Me'. It was a satire with a switch. I told in detail how they tried to brainwash me and then I said it was all a lie. And I explained how in all the MANY times I've exchanged ideas with them, on or offsite, not ONCE did ANY one of them suggest I even THINK of converting. They ALL ALWAYS made it clear that they think I'm fine just the way I am.

Then I said that through their diligence and fairness in their discussions onsite they converted me to being more serious and thoughtful in discussions here. But I never got to finish the blog before I took a long break.

And now I doubt it's necessary. Nur does the job of defending the Bahai here far more eloquently than I ever could in a million years.

***

For those still interested in the Strange and Extraordinary Case of Wahid Azal, from now on, when he starts babbling, I'm going to link his MOST disgusting and sickest posts and blogs to show how toxic he truly is, just for the record for possible new readers. Beyond that I am going to ignur him.

My ideas 'develped' today on his (Xrvanah's) blog on the devil.

The Celebrated Bahram Beizaie is indeed from a Bahai Family...

The Celebrated Bahram Beizaie is indeed from a Bahai Family; however as is the Bahai law,one's religion can not be inherited

but must be independently chosen by the believer.

However, if you really want to know what is  Mr Beizaie's  ideology and beliefs; just look at his masterpiece BASHU

you can see the entire film on you tube

here is one part

Nur, p.s.

Please read this blog I wrote a long time ago. It is short and simple.

//iranian.com/main/blog/rosie-t/bezaies-mosaferaan-mirror

As you probably know, Bezaie is Bahai. Is he a sag Bahai too?

__________

p.s.hmmm, thought i should check, after posting this ,but can't find anything on him being bahai in google. funny...a niranian filmmaker told me he is. ah well...did find out a recent film of his is called sag koshi...at least that's worth a laugh..?

Please scan...

With regards to your chronic BLOCKAGE problem

perhaps a little Ayahuasca will help .

"The Purge is an important, almost legendary, part of the Ayahuasca experience. The Purge usually takes the form of vomiting, but may sometimes take the form of diarrhea. Many people purge strongly in their earlier Ayahuasca experiences, … as these blockages are removed. "

Your twin has appeared!

Do I detect a sense of blockage?

If you had an ounce of honesty in you, you would also include other
quotes that direct us to pray for people like you so that your souls are
not lost forever.

Those quotes are for PR public consumption, not what was really in the man's breast. I keep finding new, hatefilled drivel by your so-called prophet from various sources, some of which is too rich to pass up. Maybe I'll start translating some of this stuff soon. There's also that passage from the Kitab-e-Badi' where he outright calls the temporary wife of the Bab a slut, yet elsewhere  hypocritcially bemoans her plight and reprimands Subh-i-Azal and Aba Wahid Siyyid Muhammad Isfahani blah blah blah! The oozing hypocrisy in this material, which is also reflected in the rest of you through the passage of time, is just pure comedy!

Humiliated myself, you say? Deprived myself? LOL! Hell no! I found true freedom from that prison-cage that is your cult, officially 14 years ago, unofficially 17 years ago, and if cutting myself from ya'll is deprivation and humiliation, please give me more of it! But I am going to help others find their freedom from this insidious cult and be witness and give testimony to the whole world as to how sick, twisted, perverted and lethally dangerous your organization and ideology truly is! That you can count on until the day I am put in my grave :)

I’m glad you liked those aliases for Darth Vader.  I’m afraid even all those new names would still not be sufficient for his over-inflated ego.  He is very important you know!

Wahid the *Total Eclipse* – If you had an ounce of honesty in you, you would also include other quotes that direct us to pray for people like you so that your souls are not lost forever.  Is that hate or an expression of love for even the likes of you?  It’s not that you are unfamiliar with the rest of the writings.  It’s jut that you are not decent enough to paint the full picture.

You made your bed, now sleep in it.  You’ve humiliated yourself and deprived your soul on your own.

Very true

I don’t mean to speak for *Gavazn*, but I have a feeling that he’s just
frustrated by all the good people who overlook the ovens and the gallows
but enjoy and praise the songs and the galleries. 

Indeed, especially when the overlooking is occuring regarding folks who rub their hands in glee during the Bam earthquake and call it divine retribution (qazab-e-elahi) for Iran's failure to kowtow to a silly cultist ideology such as Bahaism; or where such Bahaim preach oneness of humanity with one side of their mouths but ghetto-ize their own communities into sectarian sub-sections such as Mosalmoon Bahai, Kalimi Bahai, Zartoshti Bahai, Bahai-e-Amrikai, Bahai Oroopa'i, etc, and discriminate accordingly like when Kalimi Bahai or Zartoshti Bahai parents don't allow their children to marry Mosalmoon Bahais or Bahai-e-Amreekaa'i or similar; or when such Bahaim have no compunction about slurring all non-Bahaim Iranians as Sag/Bad Mosalmoon, Shi'e-ye Shanee'e, Gabr or Bad Johood! If such people are ever taken seriously or, God forbid, should take political power anywhere, a holocaust of all the nons is right around the corner. I totally agree! 

It is amazing that for all the Mazloom Namaa'ee/feigning victimhood that you Bahaim play, the amount of zolm that emanates from yourselves is absolutely oblivious to you all.

Ok Rosie, you asked for it, again

(per your comment from another blog) I’ll do it again once more time.  I think you took *Gavazn*’s comments a little too personally and perhaps didn’t allow your typical objectivity to guide you.

I don’t particularly enjoy writing, especially long comments, but I think it may be important to get to the heart of this matter - as a matter of principle and not necessarily because of the personalities.

There is a harsh reality going on in Iran right now.  Many innocent Iranians of varying backgrounds and persuasions have been killed and many families’ lives destroyed.  I realize that I’m not telling you anything that you don’t already Factually know.  I think most people Know the raw facts.  But not all people Feel the facts.

You don’t seem to appreciate the Passion of the new generation of Iranians who, for various reasons, are now compelled to change the situation for the better.  We must acknowledge and encourage this newly found national treasure.  We must try to see things from their point of view, and not from a liberal comfortable perch.  Sarcastic and condescending comments against these young warriors give the (mis)impression of condoning and enabling appalling characters.

There are a number of people, with their own anti-Baha’i agendas, who have fake crushes on Wahid just to goad him to continue his futile campaign.  They praise him on other subjects so that his overall credibility might be enhanced.  Their tactics are well known.

There are also others like you and *humanbeing* who can easily compartmentalize the multi facets of someone like Wahid, and enjoy some of their traits while disliking the rest.  I can understand this and, at times, I do it myself.

Wahid has taken pride in providing the Islamic Republic anti-Baha’i documents.  He’s made it clear that his goal in life is the elimination of Baha’is and their institutions.  He is a violent man who wished he could empty his gun at Baha’is.  He is a duplicitous manipulator and most people reject him in his entirety.  Do you think that it is just a coincidence that he’s recently started lamenting for Israel by stating that Baha’is are dangerous to Israel?  (Or is he manipulating *humanbeing*?)

I think people like *Gavazn* know that someone with so much hatred cannot possibly feel or write genuinely about Esgh (love), eroticism, or esotericism.  Notwithstanding his Cut & Paste expertise.

And when I/we expose him and point him out to others, he starts crying out that the people of Athens are unjustly and inaccurately accusing him of corrupting the youth and want to poison him after his trials!

Don’t you think that Kristallnacht happened because of people like Wahid Azal, people who encouraged them, and people who didn’t try to stop them?

In order to understand people like *Gavazn*, you need to honestly contemplate the following analogies.

Let us assume that it is in the middle of WWII and the height of Holocaust.   What would the Jews and other decent people, anywhere in the world, think of theses hypothetical situations (BACK THEN)?

- The village cheese maker throws the best cheese and wine tasting parties but he also informed the Gestapo where Ann Frank was hiding.  What is the natural and human reaction towards this person?  “Well, he did a bad thing but he makes a heck of a good cheese!”?

- Or imagine an Arts Gallery in Auschwitz, at the same time that the ovens are working overtime, displaying the paintings of Adolf Hitler with Wagner playing in the background.  Do you think people without nefarious agendas would attend such gathering?  Now the art connoisseurs, purely out of art appreciation, may have praised Hitler.  But most people could not overlook the rising smoke of the chimneys and separate the man’s art from his horror.
//quazen.com/arts/art-history/10-paintings-by...

If the person who hanged Delara Darabi was the best violin virtuoso playing at Carnegie Hall – Could you enjoy yourself at his concert and write up a glowing critique in New York Times that “his violin taught me a lot about myself and my spirit soared”  and “oh, by the way, he sometimes hangs innocent people too!”?

Perhaps, 50 years from now people can separate Wahid’s esotericism (real or fake) from his hateful goals.  But not now!

I don’t mean to speak for *Gavazn*, but I have a feeling that he’s just frustrated by all the good people who overlook the ovens and the gallows but enjoy and praise the songs and the galleries.  

I wish we had more people like *Gavazn* during WWII and I’m certainly grateful that we have them now.

Ooops!

Sorry Nur, I said in my post below that you had said something about 'having a grudge against me' when I meant  you had said something about (my) having a grudge against you.'

I went back to correct it but I got 'error' because you had clicked 'reply' to answer me.

Oh,c'mon Nur,

I reminded you below replying to your comment to me about having some grudge against me that you called me a kike and told me to ride my Hanukah Harry donkey. I also said (or meant to imply) that I had provoked you in some way by being nasty myself, and anyway that I didn't take it personally. I made a joke of it.

Then it came up again later in the context of your being anti-Bahai. You have at times talked about a Bahai-Zionist conspiracy and I believe substituted Jews for Zionists. But no matter. Not sure. Small point. And yes, I do know the difference.

And now you tell me you are a landsman.Yes, I can see you have your 'yiddisher kopf'.

Can you see how internally inconsistent and unreasonable you not infrequently are is the queston?

__________________

I am going to write something on your new blog tomorrow. I have been thinking about it.

Rosie, you are so full of it!

Nur is capable of being pretty nasty about the Jews.

As an ethnic Jew (surely, you're not so far out inhabiting the boondocks of your own mind that you didn't know I am also an ethnic Jew from the side that counts) I have a problem with militant ideological Zionists. In fact so do quite fair number of Israelis, as would even Ben Gurion or Golda Meir if they were brought back to life to see what manner of lunatic monsters this present generation of ideological Zionists have become! Some of these folks are the spitting image of the Islamists, as any fair minded person would agree!

But since you're not so subtely accusing me now of antisemitism, can you provide the evidence, please. And if I am going to be accused of racism perhaps so should the late Shah of Iran because this below is my view:

Rosie jan

I never saw the DQ comment, the first comment I ever saw from you was recently in HB blog.  :-)

Look, it is clear you are lovely. Hope you understand where people were coming from, and I can see your intentions are good. The Queen song is great. x

To sum it all up...

one thing I think we can all agree on...

is that Nur looks great as a girl.

//www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMz-wi50ACU&feature=related

And you think I'm a drama queen?

Rosie

You are saying he should be rewarded for good behavior (everyone agrees), while by your behavior dismissing when he has been reprimanded for bad behaviour (blocked). He has been blocked, and being blocked should be accepted and recognised. Part of being “trained” Rosie is that people (including spoilt children) should not get away with bad behaviour , getting blocked and then complaining about getting blocked, returning with the same insulting behavior and profanities, and being flattered and defended by individuals. OK? That is giving ambiguous signals to someone who needs to understand clear messages. That is my issue with you and nothing else.

You are a Drama Queen, but a lovely one at that, I can see you are a nice person. Sadly people like NUR bring negative energy into a space and often it results in arguments, even between people that would otherwise not argue and get on. Look what it does. He is enjoying all this attention. Leaving this blog is a good idea, I do not think this guy with the way he behaves deserves so much attention.

No, wait, sorry, one more..

When I told Nur below that he needs to be 'trained', what I meant, what I think should be happening here, is that Nur should be appreicated and rewarded when he does excellent writings (which he HAS, beautiful translations and so on...) by being FEATURED by the publisher and ACKNOWLEDGED by more community members in a POSITIVE way...

and being held to more rigid moderaton standards when it comes to his discourse on the Bahai than on other topics, and than (many) others are in general. And blocked when/if necessary on a provisional basis WITHOUT deleting his a/c, work, A kind of carrot and stick. So he feels appreciated for the good work he does while not being permitted to be abusive. (Arguing with him never helped, not once, never ever ever...)

(Sorry to talk about you like this Nur, but it's how I feel).

That's what I think would be best. Obviously The Publisher has his own ideas. Whatever. I do not think Nur is being treated in a productive way by the Power That Is, but I still think it's better than him being permanently blocked. I'm sorry, but I do.

Sag.. PS

stop using half-baked cliches about me being a drama queen in your subject line that you saw someone else use, since you came here right before I left last year and couldn't possibly know my history here or be familiar with much of my work since I've barely written here the whole time you've been here.You stop doing that and then I'll start thinking about stopping doing whatever you tell me to stop doing. Okay?

I already told you, I showed Nur something I wrote and asked him a question and I got a response from him that had nothing to do with Bahai-bashing, and that was beautiful to me. If you two know what he's like and have been through all this with him eight million times before and gotten nothing, why you want to do it eight million and one is beyond me. But if you like playing Sysephus, fine, have a rock and a hill. On the house.

_______

no, no, sorry i take it back. of course you do sag. you've been reading me for three years, you know all about me...is that one coming next?...you just never said anything to me or did it as an anonymous fish all these years....fine, so tell me all about what you know about me that justifies you calling me that in a title before you use that stupid hackneyed expresson on me. so  who just patronized with that subject line of yours?

PS I'm off this thread. Go ahead and keep reporting Nur to the Bahia Internet Agency while he reports you to Interpol. Enjoy.

okay in a nutshell, gavazn..

you don't even have to bother reading what i just wrote in that long post to you below.  i won't even bother editing. i'll just leave it as a testimony to all language being blather and put it to you very succinctly:

you are FAR more on the money and far more EFFECTIVE in your Robbie Williams cross-dress haute couture commentary mode.

u c?

;oP

Rosie, stop being a Drama Queen

I got back something beautiful, what have you gotten back so far from him? More arguing and screaming, Gavazn? What?

Please do not patronise. We have all tried being nice with this guy and he name-calls bahai, wrose, etc. This person is a middle aged man, not a child, so he should not need to be blocked umpteen times to GET that his behaviour is not acceptable.  And you must be naive to think that your sudden presence here calling him a genius and smart has changed him. Perhaps you should try to see Gavazn’s previous blogs where he has tried to be friendly with this man, but as soon as he criticised him he too was name-called and was treated with aggression.

Just listen to you. You are consumed with the same puke green bile rage about Nur that Nur is consumed with when he talks about the Bahai./ It is contagiou.

To equate gavazn and Nur you must be a deluded lady. Gavazn has treated people with respect. he has been defending bahais on this website, whilst others have kept out and only appear once the guy has been blocked.

Why do you think javid is keeping this thread open?Because it adds to the drama of the website.

Why do you think you are going to be flagged?

Because the past few days he has been flagged by this person consistently. And has written posts to Gavazn containing violent remarks.

--------

Rosie your long rambling reply has shown someone hit a nerve with you. Instead of being so defensive perhaps try being FAIR.

"I'm smart enough to know I'm not as smart as you. "

PLEASE EXCUSE THE LENGTH. IT WOULD TAKE ME TOO LONG TO EDIT IT DOWN RIGHT NOW. I WILL DO IT LATER.

Gavazn,

My God, you people. How much further can you crawl up this  person.

They don't crawl. I am the only one who is doing it.

First of all, if he was not excused by people like you for his disgusting racist behavior which reeks of HATE, he would recognise what it is to be accountable for oneself.

 He is not being excused of anything by anyone on this thread, including, and in certain ways especially, me. 'Especially' because I expect him to produce something better than his Bahai bashing and he did. His new blog which I happen to find sublimely beautiful--and the point is not whether it 'objectively' is or not--whatever that means--the point is I find it that way and probably a few others do too. Which is more than you can say than his fulminating about the Bahai Internet Agency and telling people to die.  Which no one finds beautfiul, although you somehow seem to think some people do.

I got back something beautiful, what have you gotten back so far from him? More arguing and screaming, Gavazn? What?

But all you do is suck up to this guy and give the impression he is some genius (actually there are a lot of people more intelligent than this guy on IC but do not brag)

Read the discusson on the thread below between him and humanbeing at the bottom of my last long post to Nur and tell me who other than he and hb could have that discussion and I will contact them immediately and ask them to read some of my real work.

I could not participate in that discussion the way they are, because I don't have a memory for 'information bytes'. It makes me an excellent poet but less 'intelligent' on a level of IQ than they are.Although mind you, my IQ is not low...Now getting people here who have that type of mind to retain things and who have that overarching knowledge in the classics, humanities, etc...you said there are lots. Okay, good. How much is lots? More than three?  twenty? a hundred? If people know about the esoteric and the archetypal underpinnings of our collective unconscious and so on, then how come they never mention it?  Out of modesty, you say???

No, it's because here everything's politics, politics, politics. It's all about Tomorrow comes after today and yesterday came before. This coup happened on the 35th of Adar of 2793, no it was the 36th...the...sheer...genius of it all... box arguing with box arguing with box in boxes on top of boxes on top of boxes...go, and see how many of the regular bloggers here you can find, the political theorists and the engineers, who have the very high IQ, who are knowledgable enough to participate in that discussion.

or let me put it to you another way, Gavazn...go find 'a lot of' people here who could both understand my poem and give a shit about it. If you can find say...over ten, then I will grant you, maybe they are as intelligent as Nur in 'our' field. And then we set them loose on each other on DK's thread to continue that discussion. Humanbeing moderates, all Bahai-related topics off limits. And we'll see who wins the Mensa award.

Just listen to you. You are consumed with the same puke green bile rage about Nur that Nur is consumed with when he talks about the Bahai./ It is contagiou. Look at what he's done to you. Look how much time you have sat here eating, sleeping, and sh-tting nothing but Nur.

Now who has who wrapped around whose finger? 

and deserves to be treated different to anyone else who is being reprimanded for antisocial behavior. That is why this guy behaves the way he does. He knows he'll get away with it!

Oh nonsense, he does things like this all over the Internet and if he doesn't get away with it he does it somewhere else. Why do you think javid is keeping this thread open? Because between you and me and the Bahai and whoever and Nur we will be here for the next 47 months as long as someone keeps answering someone and that way Nur is contained. How many people do you think will follow this other than for its three ring circus entertainment value? How much do you think this thread is rocking i.c., let alone the world?

Fercrissake, Gavazn, most of the Bahai here THEMSELVES don't take Nur seriously anymore and tell other people to ignore him. You say he behaves the way he does because of people like me who you perceive to be his psychophants and enablers. No, Gavazn he stays here AND ACTS THE WAY HE DOES because of people like you who seriously challenge him.  

And, being smart has many aspects. not just regurgitating text and praising ones own beliefs and ego, but accepting that there are differing opinions on life and the universe. And being caring and humble.

Du-uh.

You don't know me very well, do you?

You may be right on that one. He has people wrapped round his finger because some people like the so called "enigma" of BULLIES. Lets hope he writes another blog about "esgh" and the "feminine", after all he adores the females, so he MUST be a great person!  ... what a joke!

Who said he was this great person?

Throw away the soapbox, Gavazn, would ya pleeeease?

This is not Khamenei and Ahmadinejad putting Bahais in prison and executing them. This is NUR on some gossamer soon to be forgotten thread on timarestan.com fulminating.

Actually--and sorry to break this to you, Gavazn, really--the real joke is that the kind of literal, rigid reading you're giving everything I said and did here, and your ensuing pontificaton, the not being able, no, not being WILLING to see the different layers and nuances an tactics I was juggling...that's the kind of two-dimensional thinking Nur has contempt for--it is...well, it's...tedious, Gavazn.

So I said 'oh wow Nur, you're smarter than me!' and now you are on this train and I can see it is the trans-Siberian railroad...about my hero worship of this evil being and god knows what...get off soapbox, reread my posts.

And JJ if I am flagged, I want it to be known this is my opinion of these people and I have a right to my opinion as an observer. I have not attacked or used profanities.

Gavazn, are you serious??? (Well yes, obviously you are. That's clearly your problem, you're far too serious...). If you're frigging flagged? Gavazn, no one is flagging anyone on this thread. Nur has given death threats to two people explicitly and implicitly by extension most of us here, he has told people to eat shit, croak, and more, and no one has flagged him.

Why do you think you are going to be flagged? And that if you are, that t Jahanshah might delete you? Don't you understand you are now in a no-flag zone? Don't you understand you're in most padded padded cell of timarestan.com, isolated from all the other inmates. We can do whatever we want here now. Drool, draw on the walls with our own excement, etc...you are in the sanctum sanctorum of psycho ward three, where the Great Liberator of Iranians gets to prove his commitment to Free Speech even for those against the cause MOST DEAR TO HIM (the Bahai)...

And at the same time contain Nur. And provide entertainment for those upset by the political situation and in search of bread and circus.

(Sorry, Nur, it's true. Like I said you can huff and puff and so can anyone else but only one person calls the shots at this Daily Lobo is A..b...h).

Okay, okay, Gavazn, look. I'll flag you. Okay? Happy now?

...

He talks down to those that are not Iranian and has this fanatic sense that all things western are inferior to him and his culture. He'll call Iranians who disagree with him gharibzadeh (westernized). Some people would claim that is racist mentality ... note he has previously said he wants bahais out of Iran (ethnical cleansing). Make up your own mind.

All I’m asking, is for Iranian Baha’is to also have at least this much freedom

Well said Anvar. Freedom to choose and not be arrested, denied education, threatened with death if you chose a different religion. Nu-i-Azal is discriminating between Iranians and saying some should be termed as non-Iranian. This guy claims he is a Zoroastrian, but he is not a respectable representative of ANY religion. Please see how he claims Bahais should not be classified as Iranian and his offensive and twisted manipulation of ideologies to maintain persecution of bahais in Iran. 

//iranian.com/main/blog/nur-i-azal/bahais... //iranian.com/main/blog/amir-sahameddin-ghiassi-93

Now people may say they do not like religion and are secular, but just because someone says he is a Zoroastrian and "traditional Persian" should not be a reason to deny others from equal rights. This is why I think people like this man, who try to appeal to Iranian through use of "Persian-ness" for dark agendas are dangerous.

"I'm getting to think this website is not a healthy place to be"

A little slow on the uptake there, Gavazn?

;oP

that's why they call it timarestan.com.

New screen name

Well Anvar, you probably know which one I vote for.

And Anvar please note Nur's green color in the video habitat, which symbolizes the living green leaves of the tree emerging from its waste, its residiue, from soil fertizilized by its own dead leaves, LIFE AT EVERY MOMENT SUSTAINING ITSELF ON ITS OWN DEATH. (Not done with the other blog yet, as you can see, Anvar--not that there are really two of them of course, it's all just that good ol' unicity in the duplicity. Anyway the shadow part is trickier but the leaves part is a no-brainer).

So, yes, we should. We should all love trash.. Especially those of us who tread these threads of Javidestan, for it is where we live.

Ya garbage.

I used the term 'racist'' very loosely

to mean being bigoted against a religious group, any religious group. I used it because unfortunately there's no other word for it in English. You can't fly into a fury and say 'You dirty rotten religious chauvinist!'

When you are talking about Judaism and Islam and I guess Hinduism, there's a better 'fit' with the word racist than with Bahaism. And I guess from the Middle Eastern perspective it could have the same resonances with Christianity, since the Christians there are overall 'whiter' (more or less) than the general population; hence a different race. 

When you use the word to apply to a religion like the Bahai, which is so new and so worldwide that it encompasses so many different 'races', granted, it is a poor fit. Except that like I said, there is no better word in English, And anyway, depending on which side of the bed he wakes up on (as you can see), Nur is capable of being pretty nasty about the Jews.

And finally since there is no such thing scientifically as specific races, the word doesn't mean much anyway. So I may as well use it in this case. Maybe with time the meaning will get extended to cover bigotry toward any kind of people.

Well, come to think of it, I guess there is a word for that, and that would be 'bigot'. But it has much softer connotations than what I wanted to say.

_____________

As for Nur being racist in other ways, I have no idea what he thinks of blacks or Esquimos or whatever, but my impresson is he's not racist in that way.
