The key challenge for the United States is to find ways to connect with the Green Movement. As important as social media or rhetorical declarations may be, such measures are limited. The model of Eastern Europe is instructive, as the West managed to covertly use a range of institutions, such as the Catholic Church and labor unions, to funnel assistance to dissidents. Several parts of Iranian civil society - labor syndicates, savvy youth, clerical dissidents, liberal protesters and universities - exist in a state of perpetual rebellion>>>
IRAN

Once again, we bear witness to the possibility of that most elusive of all aspirations, namely our true potential as free Iranians. Once again, the wall we face is more of a mirror and faced with our own reflection,we are forced to confront our willingness to commit to push through the thin veil of intimidation that our oppressors bet with a smile, we are too cowardly to pass through>>>
FILM

In a cyber age of mass communication with instant access to information, where all things past seem to be abruptly dismissed as obsolete, what makes an old fashioned film in a Victorian setting so appealing to contemporary audiences worldwide? …
The mystery of The King’s Speech’s phenomenal success seems to equally astonish its director Tom Hooper as well as its talented cast of splendid actors notably Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush and Helena Bonham Carter in the title roles>>>
TRAGEDY
19-Feb-2011
جوانان را می کشند و خانواده هایشان را از سوگواری منع می کنند. از طریق رسانه ها و مهره هایشان، دیگران را به خیانت متهم می کند. دیکتاتوری خود را قادر برحق می بیند و هیچگونه نافرمانی را تاب نمی آورد و از سوی دیگر به هیچ مرامی پایبند نیست و از مرده ها انتقام می کشد و با انحصاری کردن جنازه و منع سوگواری آبرومندانه، و در واقع با تحقیر مقتول به تحقیر مضاعف دودمانش برمی خیزد>>>
WOMEN

زن ستیزی نشئات گرفته از فرهنگهایی ست كه در آنها زن جنس درجه دوم محسوب شده است. جوامعی كه به زن ستیزی مجال بروز میدهند زن را فرو دست و مرد را فرا دست می انگارند. تقریبا همیشه این نگرش فراتر از یك دسته بندی فرهنگی رفته است تا جایی قوانین آن جوامع، با پیش زمینه های ذهنی، طوری تدوین می شوند كه فرودستی موقعیت زن تضمین شود. جامعه ایران پس از انقلاب مثال بارز و عملی این ادعا است>>>

DEMOCRACY
17-Feb-2011 (21 comments)
The path to democracy is a long process of evolution and not an overnight revolution. It is very easy to create scapegoats and blame all the problems on one individual or even one party. But the bottom line is that in no society will democracy be achievable unless by every member of that society starting to act responsibly and respecting each others point of view. Otherwise we could be in the long hall of going through the same vicious cycle of replacing one dictator with another>>>
IDOLS

در جامعه ایرانی ستایش بی پایه افراد به دلایل گوناگون امری عادی و روزمره است همانند احترام بیجا به یک حاجی یا دکتر هر چند اگر رفتارشان سزاوار احترام نباشد و یا انتظار رفتار شایسته از این افراد صرفا به خاطر مدرک تحصیلی و زیارت حج. سرچشمه این موارد را میتوان در این باور یافت که برای ایرانیان احترام برخی افراد واجب شمرده میشود و افراط ما در این امر چنان است که حتی همسر یک پزشک را هم خانم دکتر خطاب میکنیم و بسیاری هستند که از دیگران توقع احترام دارند و این در حالی است که در آمریکا افراد احترامشان را بر اساس رفتارشان کسب میکنند>>>
KHOMEINI
17-Feb-2011 (5 comments)
Dr. Hooshang Nahavandi, author of "Khomeini in France", is an Iranian writing about contemporary Iran, so his book accusing foreign powers of bringing Khomeini to power carries a tone of anger, sorrow and regret. When a writer says “J’accuse” it is no longer proper to ask whether he is an objective historian, but whether as aggrieved party and prosecutor he has brought sufficient evidence and argued eloquently enough to convince the jury. My verdict: guilty!>>>
COURAGE

Once again it is with great dismay that I read a posting on this website by a self flagellating Iranian. Evidently our friend has no television to witness the courage of proud Iranians braving untold consequences by proudly taking to the streets in the past two days. The contributor fittingly sings the praises of Egyptians, but then questions the “gheyrat” of Iranians to do like wise. I have heard such complaints one time too many. Convinced our gadfly friend has no access to visual media outlets, I thought it best to put pen to paper>>>
