اگر برای نشان دادن درجه سبعیت، وحشی‌گری، بدویت فرهنگی و ایدئولوژیکی رژیم حاکم بر ایران تنها یک دلیل و شاخص لازم بود همین نحوه رفتار و برخورد آن به مسئله اعدام کفایت می‌کرد. رژیم‌های زیادی در جهان به کشتن و بستن و سرکوب و زندان و شکنجه دست می‌زنند. ولی همه این کردارها یک توجیه «عقلی» دارد: حفظ یا اعمال قدرت. کشتن خونسردانه فرد اسیر و بی‌دفاع و بی‌خطر که به نام اعدام انجام می‌شود، اما، کمتر توجیهی در حفظ یا اعمال قدرت می‌توان داشته باشد>>>

Azar Majedi of the Organisation of Women’s Liberation - Iran has attacked the Nude Photo Revolutionary Calendar and supporting video of Iranian women as being similar to the tabloids (namely the Sun’s page 3), ‘dim-witted idiocy’ and ‘buffoonery’ and Golshifteh Farahani’s nudity as ‘commercial’ whilst supporting Egyptian blogger Aliaa Magda Elmahdy’s nudity. Her attack is a masterpiece in dishonesty, hypocrisy, and regressive politics. Let me explain>>>

This writing is not about my life but about a generation of Iranians between the ages of 45-55 who left Iran around the revolution. It’s the naked truth about an entire generation of exiled people who have lost their identity, their hopes and dreams, feel alone and lost and for the most part live in severe undiagnosed depression>>>

It is obvious that for Dowlat-Abadi, the origin of censorship by the “cultural management” is not its fundamentalist ideology and repressive attitude, but only its dogmatism. That’s why a few sentences ahead, he sympathized with the censors of the Ministry of Islamic Guidance as victims of their own actions. He said, “This discourse that they want to hear and hear it from the mouth of others, because they don’t hear it, they constantly repeat it themselves; what’s the use?">>>

Thankfully, a commonsense and long overdue proposal has been introduced in Congress by Representative Barbara Lee (Democrat, California) and nine other Representatives to dispense with the absurd "no contact" policy on the U.S. side. The bill, the Prevent Iran from Acquiring Nuclear Weapons and Stop War Through Diplomacy Act (H.R.4173) would finally lift the ban on talking to Iran. Not only would eliminating this policy put us in a much better position to resolve the standoff, it will put the onus on the Iranians>>>

زال ورودابه پس از پشت سر گذاشتن یک رشته درد سرهائی که بر سر راه بهم رسیدن آنها بوجود آمده بود، سر انجام پیوند زناشوئی می بندند و بهم می رسند. اندکی ازین پیوند نمی گذرد که رودابه باردار می شود و هرچه به ماه های آخر بارداری نزدیکتر می شود، شکمش فربه تر، بدنش سنگین تر شده، رخش زردفام می شود تا به جائی که می انگارد بجای کودک، سنگی در میان دارد>>>

Recently I finished a book by Ali Gharib. The name of this book was “Istadeh bar armaan” The writer in this book attempts to give an accurate account of events leading to the 1979 revolution and Khomeini becoming a leader. Then he goes on to quote from the memoirs of people like Banisadr, Bazargan, Yazdi, Soroosh and many others as to how Khomeini betrayed all of them along with Iranian nation and diverted their revolution into the path that it was never supposed to take >>>

Based on either conformism or ignorance, lumpens claim not to be interested in political activity They do not have any clear political beliefs, they lack mental stability and are confused about political matters. Dowlat-Abadi declared his non-involvement in politics in a December 2011 interview he had with Ali Shoroughi and Sheema Bahremand from Shargh Newspaper, entitled: “Mahmoud Dowlat-Abadi: We are people as well”>>>

نسيم سرد پاييزى قلمى است مرموز

به ژرفناى مايوس حريرى سفيد

I watched two very different Iranian worlds depicted in the powerful medium of film: one reality meticulously masked as fiction, one semi-fiction frivolously packaged as reality. Bear with me. 1. The first is the 2012 Academy Award winner for Best Foreign Language Film -- A Separation -- written and directed by Asghar Farhadi. 2. The second is episode 2 of the reality TV show Shahs of Sunset: It's My Birthday Bitches produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions for Bravo>>>

The problem with Iranians is, number one, that we are a very critical bunch. We're very quick to criticize one another and point out inadequacies and deficiencies. Secondly, we are so image conscious (and, frankly, pompous) that we think that a reality show about our community must necessarily feature doctors, lawyers, and Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. After all, we're one of the most highly educated and successful groups in the US>>>

Considering how well Dowlat-Abadi is aware of the corruption of the intellectuals of the regime and the regime itself, one wonders why he is so adamant to support this regime and remain one of its lumpen intellectuals who is occasionally used and abused by other lumpen intellectuals. (Here, I remember the story of a famous female filmmaker who used a female writer’s scenario without her permission to make a film, and was sued by her)>>>
