دو راهه ی گزينش

* فايل صوتی

و ما مردمان کشوری به نام ايران اين خوشبختی را داريم که يک چنين شخصيتی از سرزمين ما و از قلب فرهنگ ايرانی ما برخاسته است. می گويم از قلب فرهنگ ما چون باور دارم که کوروش بزرگ پيش از آن که امپراتور ايران باستانی ما باشد، پيش از آن که مبتکر اولين امپراتوری جهان باشد، پيش از آن که رهبری سياسی و موفق دوره ای از سرزمين ما باشد، يکی از رهبران فرهنگی ما است.

Criticism vs. Racism

It is difficult to judge the British public opinion, as it is usually the media that makes and shapes the public opinion. As far as the British political arena is concerned, I must say no, it has not changed. The British government continues the policy of appeasement of the so-called “Moslem leaders,” whom to my opinion, are self appointed. Consulting with these religious men, in order to “win the hearts of Moslem community, is British government’s key policy.>>>

بله برون

همه چیز روبراه شده بود. فتحیه در پاسخ استفهامی كه از طریق آقای مؤمنی و مادر زنش، عمه‌ فتحیه فرستاده بودم به راحتی پاسخ مثبت داده بود. این برای من نامنتظره بود. آخر دو سال پیشتر او خواستگاری برادر بزرگترم را رد كرده بود. سال اول دانشكده‌اش بوده و گفته بود می‌خواهد درس بخواند. اكنون دو سال را ما مشتركا در دانشكده گذرانده بودیم. او فیزیك می‌خواند و من ریاضی. در سال اول، كلاس‌های‌ ما بیشتر مشترك>>>

Between life and death

How are you going to die if you don’t live anymore? What if you never left that exact moment of sorrow when everything surrounding you collapsed by law? Was it your boldness or your youth? I don’t know, but no matter what, you lost them both the moment you entered this zone.>>>

قساوت

خمینی در ۱۱ دیماه ۱۳۶۷ پس از مشاهده‌ی دنائت حسینعلی نیری ضمن انتخاب او به ریاست هیئتی دو نفره، ابراهیم رئیسی را که آن موقع به لحاظ رسمی معاون دادستان انقلاب تهران بود، همراه او می‌کند. این دو نفر مأموریت می‌یابند تا «فارغ از پیچ‌ و خم‌های اداری» به سرعت احکام اعدام و قطع دست و پا را به منظور اشاعه‌ی جو سرکوب و اختناق در کشور صادر کنند.>>>

We fell behind

We live at a critical juncture of Iran's history and as a nation we are facing critical challenges in foreign and domestic politics. Naturally there is not much room for philosophical contemplation at this time. Nonetheless I decided to take a critical view of one of the great Persian philosophers in order to provide a historical perspective for us as a nation so we can evaluate our strengths and weaknesses and don't become a victim of a naive pride.>>>

"نشر اکاذیب" در استان کهگیلویه و بویر احمد

یعقوب یادعلی پس از گذشتن از هفت خوان ارشاد و تایید کتابش و سپس چاپ آن و به دنبالش تقدیر و تشویق و جایزه و لوح ناگهان مورد تردید قرار گرفت و تخیلاتش بازبینی شد و داستانش نادرست تشخیص داده شد و در پایان به جرم نشر اکاذیب در استان کهگیلویه و بویر احمد به زندان و نوشتن چهار مقاله درباره شخصیتهای فرهنگی و هنری محکوم شد.>>>

The Bird

The little bird was perched up on the exposed rafter in the garage. A tiny bird it was; perhaps smaller than even a sparrow, with dark grey feathers. At first, we thought it was injured; a broken wing or something. But it would fly from beam to beam if anybody approached it. It would flap its wings and make a chirp, barely audible. Maybe it is abandoned by its mother. Maybe it left the pack for some adventure, a curiosity, perhaps, and got lost.>>>

Meet your Beloved King

I am accepting the role of monarch, and just like Cyrus THE GREAT who wrote his Charter of Human Rights for his blessed subjects, I have prepared my own. I am presenting this Charter of Human Rights to you, so you can elect me as your tyrant... no, shit (that wasn't for you)... beloved king: 1) I announce that I will respect the traditions, customs and religions of the nations of my empire and never let any of my governors and subordinates look down on or insult them until I am alive (I will only let the security service, or personal militia, do all that while pretending to know nothing).>>>

The fall of Khatami

Although, Khatami delivered well on executing the laws but his evil twin in the parliament cost him his defacement. One thing that people weren’t aware of was that Khatami couldn’t convey everything single-handedly by himself. He needed the parliament to back him up on correcting small and minor laws that could bring some quick results through reforming trade laws, the tax laws, small but incremental women’s right, stopping the Reza Khatami, Navabi, Abdi, and Mirdamadi’s gang for harassing conservatives, and focusing on how to work with the conservatives rather than trying to uproot them. >>>

Asieh’s eyes

When the Islamic Republic of Iran assured the western countries that stoning was not practiced anymore, Asieh Amini dared to defy the state by writing about the covert stoning of two people, Mahboubeh M. and Abbas H., for adultery in Mashhad, in 2006. This courageous act of defiance eventually led to launch of the Stop Stoning Forever campaign which has gained international attention and saved the lives of 4 people and halted the stoning of another 10. Asieh, a main organizer of the campaign, has identified, documented, and closely followed up many of the stoning cases; she is even providing shelter for one of them after her release from prison>>>

Guilty pleasures

There is something borderline sexual about the dark, velvety smooth, rich and sweet characteristics of one of the most ancient and well known foods in history. The sinful dark master that preys on unsuspecting individuals, intoxicating them and releasing it potency into the blood stream. Inflicting incurable addictions on its victims and imposing an infinite quest for the ultimate ‘Cocoa’ fix>>>

برای نسل های بعد

پیرو تاسیس دفتر هواپیمائی ارتش، دولت درصدد تهیه هواپیما برای نیروی هوائی برآمد. سفیر ایران در امریکا، میرزا عبدالعلی خان صدیق السلطنه، در تاریخ 26 دیماه 1301 (17 ژانویه 1923) به دولت امریکا پشنهاد خرید تعدادی هواپیما و آموزش خلبان و مکانسین مینماید، اما دولت امریکا بدلیل اینکه خود یکی از بنیان گزاران وعضو اصلی کنفرانس خلع سلاح بود این تقاضا را نمیپذیرد و ایران اجبارا خرید هواپیما را با کشور های دیگر دنبال میکند>>>
