The biggest poverty one can possess is being uneducated and lack culture and etiquettes.
There was no need for you to lash at J, Javid because of his ideology, even though you may not approve. You expressed your opinion on the subject matter and just leave it at that. Otherwise, what would be the difference between how you present your ideology and those Mullahs besides brute force?

this has nothing to do with anti-americanism, i am agaist it. this stupid picture insults iranians. americans should appologize to us first and then we can be friends. and it's obvious from your name what kind of rotton idology you have. shame on you. i like shah and his wife but i don't worship them. i don't like the current regiom, but i don't think they are that bad either. we have people like you as memebers so this is the best we can do.

learn how to laugh at yourself

by G. Namjou (not verified) on

We need to learn how to laugh at ourselves. This slogan doesn’t indicate that Iranians are less of human or unworthy, rather it makes some humor from the truth. There is nothing Anti-Iranian about this picture/slogan, and quite your non-sense. Democracy or freedom of speech in a true sense means “TOLERANCE”. If you don’t have it then you are the one who is anti-Iranian.

Form and content

by News Goffer on

Liking a piece of art is a matter of personal taste. This art is not funny to me.

As for the content, yes, most Iranians are very interested in coming out of isolation, but I doubt any Iranian would say "Goh khordeem," because the general attitude of Iranians is not one of blame for themselves for what happened with Iran-US relations, or for any other malady they feel for that matter. They blame others for this.  I should like to remind you that most of the people who live in Iran today were not born on the days when those slogans against US were brandished on Tehran streets.

The IRI leaders might say the same regretful sentence but not most Iranian people, because they believe they were not involved or responsible in the matter.  That was my point.  If the art showed the IRI leaders saying this, it might have been both true and funny.  Maybe if the caption had said: "Goh KhordAN?"  I don't know.

Perfect timing

by Jahanshah Javid on

Very very funny... and true! Not only is anti-Americanism dead in Iran (compared to the time of the revolution), but government officials are building more and more contacts with American counter-parts. Attitudes have changed dramatically. That's why the new slogan is spot on funny.

In Persian is the equivalent of Down with.

I bet if in every revolution people could turn back time, they would do things very differently.

Wasn't funny

by News Goffer on

It was neither funny nor true, because Iranians inside Iran don't actually believe this. They might believe major mistakes were made and they might not be enthralled by the IRI, but 30 years of propaganda against USA has also been in operation, affecting and shaping the Iranian psyche. At best Iranians are cautious in approaching the issue.

I will never will understand

Why people who hate the west (i.e. America, Canada, European countries) DO NOT go back to Iran, Pakistan, Afghanistan and other middleastern countres and live there and use their brand of detergents!

These people need to get off their high horse, there are many faults with our country (i.e. ex country) as a whole, false pride at the wrong time is not going to change anything.

not really a big deal but the bitter truth

by Reality sucks (not verified) on

Most of the contributors to this Website are either leftists, Islamists or a combination of the two, and they loathe anything reminding them of and/or referring to the fact that Majority of Iranians, specially now almost 30 years after their glorious revolution, look up to America for anything.

Disgusted ...

by Princess on

How can the sons and daughters of the same people who betrayed Mossadegh not have learned a thing from history?? I am not comparing the mullahs to Mossadegh, but one thing is for sure, no foreigner ever is going to help the Iranian people. Pull your head out of the sand please!!!
