The difference

Last month I sent emails to both Virginia senators to support Obama health care plan and they both replied to me .It was especially interesting to see they both took time to read and respond to my email.I am sure that maybe they did not right the email themselves but one of their staff does the job but still they answered to my emails within acceptable time.

Years ago I sent letters to the members of Iranian Parliament regarding the problems I had for my university admission.

I never received an answer even a general one.

Revolution? Maybe….

For people like me who still clearly remember the events and clashes of Iran’s 1979 revolution these days are a very critical reminder.I clearly can compare the two happenings together and let me tell you there is many many similarities.

some people might say that well Shah was not this much brutal and I agree but let me remind you that the guards and the armed forces that are in the streets can not always keep their distance I should also remind you that most of the forces in the streets are very young and vulnerable to the things they see and hear.So although i absolutely condemn the system for the brutality I also can understand why the protesters try to cover the security forces and take them out of harms way.Do not forget that these are Iranians too and when the system collapses all of Iranians and I insist ALL the Iranians should learn to live and respect each other and this includes all the sepahis and basijis and Mullahs.

Nobel peace prize speech

Well the last people I thought would praise Obama for his speech were Sara Palin and Newt Gingrich but hey as they say Newt happens right??

The worlds biggest dictator

Well I guess you all heard that Iran’s leader has finally got an international recognition and received the respectful title of the world’s biggest dictator. I guess now it is time for Mike Myers or any other comedian (preferably Iranian) to make a movie out of this very respectful title for him.

don’t you all think so???

 

You see now that we already had somebody who stands among people like Obama and Nelson Mandela as a Nobel peace prize winner we clearly needed some Iranian to stand next to Hitler ,Stalin and Pol pot, good job lad you did it.

 

If only Chaplin was still alive…….

TARP funds

 

Yesterday it was in the news that the tarp funds have extra money as much as 200 billion $ in them just because the government policy was good enough so the market did not slope down as much as it was expected before.Now Obama administration wants to use this money or part of it to create jobs ,well first you think this is a perfect choice right? yes it is but if you ask our republican friends they are all against it why because they say it will add up to the budget deficit and the money should go back so it will not add to the deficit well my question is that do you prefer to have deficit now or later?

I mean if the jobless numbers grows further and further don’t you think that at some point government has to do some thing about it any way?so doing some thing means spending some thing and spending money means deficit right? no our republican friends say no government is not there to worry about people it is just there to govern but what is really the meaning of governing then?

To me more people on the jobs means more people paying taxes and more revenue for the government .This is as simple as it is.

Flowers for Iranians

As you see Iranian police as they have promised are offering flowers to Iranian people.when I was living in Iran I was always wondering what the heck are they talking about in their own media?if you would just listen to the Iranian radio and TV and just read their newspapers you think that in this god forsaken land all the people are in love with the big brother (the grand leader) and have nothing to do except praying for his long and prosperous life; what a stupid notion.

Obama With us or with them?

Many Iranian people here think that Obama has not done any thing to help Iranians.Well let us be clear here who should help Iranians ?? Iranians themselves or Americans?
Iranians have this sick beliefe that whatever happens in Iran is because of what one superpower or another does or does not . Don't we want to finally break this vicious circle and for once believe that making or breaking of Iran is and can only be done by Iranians themselves??

Again it is a very long time that I have not post any thing here.The reason more than any thing else was laziness I can give you a tin of reasons but they will be all false it is just that darn laziness.
Ok enough of that.As I guess whoever in the world who has the slightest interest in Iran and Iranian knows the Green movement is getting more and more intense and powerfull by the minute.And i mean by the minute.
From now on i try to converse more and more the Ideas and messages of this huge movement here and try to investigate it more from an immigrant point of view.

Some guy named Hoder

An old Iranian proverb says that tell me who is your friend so I can tell you who you are so since khomeini is not only your friend but your hero I send this ling so everybody can have a better knowledge about new hoder.http://www.sharemation.com/iranejavid/hokm001.gif

Hello

Hello stranger .Welcome home.

It is a long time that I have written a post.But today is a very special day here in the US: Democrats are back to be majority in the senate as well as congress and this as many people say is the end of bush era.I was very happy when the Bush senior got the boot from white house and now I am equally happy that American people (this time including me) are kicking out his son's party in congress and hopefully in two years from white house. This might even bring some changes in Iran, let's wait and see.

Have you read this article by Ebrahim Nabavi .Well for me although I knew many of his examples but it really was an eye opener.I mean look at us aren't we really messed up our selves??On top of all the examples that he gives us in this really fantastic article I can give you another one:we all know that using seatbelt during riding a car is a common sense to save our lives right??? Wrong your fellow citizens even here in the US do not like to use it ;Why well nabavi has explained it in a very eloquent way .I just like nabavi think that our problem is our selves what we believe is right and wrong and in one word lets face it our culture is not fir for living in this world at this time .maybe it was good for a hundred year ago but not now lets try to find ways to solve this huge problem that is killing us one way or another lets think about it.I will talk about this more.

Long time ago when our country was engulfed by revolution when the first parliamentary election was on the way ,I remember one of a very welcoming signs that was just for the poor candidate not to be elected by people; in the leaflet you could read some thing like this: We support Mr .... The popular party(toodeh) of Iran.This was absolutely enough for the poor candidate to collect all the hatred of people in that time who by different means still remembered the role of this party in the cue against mosadegh and obviously hated it.
now just imagine that the same thing is being applied to freedom and democracy just look at this article in my dear friends blog regarding Michael leaden and president Bush and other republicans in the US politics.http://rezansr.blogspot.com/2005/02/az-chaleh-too-chaah.html
My answer to these friend and others like hossein Derakhshan is that dear friend don't you think this way is some how crazy to object an idea just because it is being said by Ledeen or Bush ??Derakhshan might be very young to remember the fear of Iraq war or the bombardments or the war of cities or missiles but I am not I sure remember the fear of those days and some how can imagine what will a shock and awe campaign brings to Tehran or Isfahan or other Iranian cities but lets be practical friends first of all the bombs are not fallen yet and there is a long way to reach to that Point second we as Iranians are the only people who can instead of looking at this situation as a danger make an opportunity out of it .I mean who is there not to know that ledeen and bush are following their own agenda??But hey this was the case all the time wasn't it??Wasn't it the case during Iran's revolution for Americans I mean obviously Iranian revolution some how was against American agenda at that time but in Practice they were able to use the opportunity for their own benefit and we know that they did it the best way we know?? Can't we as Iranians be atleast once just like them I mean lets face it should we abandon our perusing of freedom and democracy just because Ledeen and Bush say we support democracy in Iran.This good friend talks about the rallies in Tehran that tens of thousands of people took part to say no to the US here he is wrong again lets look at this from a statistical point of view .Tens of thousands means at most the number of people was 100000 but the problem is that Teheran's population is somewhere between 12 to 15 million and considering the fact that the population of country is 70 million it means that almost 17-20% of population live in Tehran so out of lets say 17% of population just almost 100000 people took part in this show so with a simple calculation we can say that the number of people against US and supporting such point of view can be:600000 people you might say Ok people in Tehran are different and they are so fed up with the regime and in other cities and villages it will be different(that we know it is not like that )ok we just double this figure ... Again we reach to a number of 1200000
lets be more generous and say 2000000 people think the way you think then just look at it 68 million people are against this point of View aren't they??
Good friend of mine please when you start doing some thing like sending a letter to Ledeen and messing up yourself and others please think again.is it really the way to deal with this Issue I mean ok you sent an email to Ledeen and he sent a not so polite reply to you so what ??what did you gain from this?? lets look at this issue from another point of View:
For 8 years all the freedom seekers in Iran and all the bloggers and all the journalists And all in all ;all the people of Iran put a huge pressure on the system to change we know this but look at the result :What happened other than having prisons full of journalists and even many of them in graveyards??And then just Imagine just one word from Bush and it pushed Rafsanjany to openly come out and say that he intends to change constitution to limitate Leaders Powers .If this does not mean any thing what does??
My dear friend opportunities come very late and go very soon lets use them to the best of our selves and our people not just destroy them because it comes from bush or ledeen or any body else lets grab them and use them to the best of our ability to create a better future for ourselves and our kids.

I saw that a couple of the bloggers outside and inside of Iran got very angry with this being Emrooz of many bloggers they again for the thousandth time remind us of the crimes of these reformists and what they did in the first years of IRI .Well I do noit want to support reformists many of them should be sent to a just trial and courts should decide about them but what about us?? I mean what good does it do that now that we are all facing a monster named IRI to just stay there and say they are all criminals first of all this is not our right to judge them they should be tried in a fair and just court with Jury present and have the access to all the information to defend themselves and if we want to deny this right for them so then we are just like them .On the other hand well I think even saddam in his prison has the right to post a web log and if somebody wants to deny his right I think we should even defend his right after all isnt freedom of speech what we all seek??and the freedon of speech is for every body even a monster like saddam .Lets think aliitle bit and lets get together to solve our problems in a logical and fair way nit just with shouting names at eachother we are all humans after all.

امروز







Today and all this week I will be emrooz too I have no connection to them I even do not like tajzadeh to tell you the truth after all he wants to keep this stupid IRI but I think everybody has the right to talk freely even tajzadeh .

A Couple of days a go I saw that one of these mullas in the friday prayer has mentioned that Rezazadeh has introduced Abolfazl to world.Well I have no objection that with mentioning abolfazl every time by rezazadeh this will become a case for the western journalists to go and cvheck who is this abolfazl whom his name is always mentiond by the strongest man of the world .Butr I have another concearn here: if after years and years of preaching and waisting peoples money and having millions and millions of mullas and preachers and so on it is up to a weight lifter top introduce an islamic figure to the world what is the purpose of these guys any way isnt it then appropriate to say that these guys are the most useless people of the world whose expiry time has long been passed??why should we keep thses guys any way what benefit do they add to human society? at least you have never heard that a cristian priest has never claimed that paul or mathew have been introduced to the world by an american or italian athlete .

It is a very long time that i did not blog and many things has happened during this long time after a very long period of waiting Shahla is with me atlast (what a joy) and we are decorating home and it is not easy at all .On the other hand we had chance to see artmis and reza in our trip to LA and talk to amir in Iran.In iran the situation is getting worse and worse there is no happiness and no hope every thing seems so dark that even talking about it is not easy god knows when this finishes but I hope soon.

Any way I hope that I will be more persistant this time and post more regularly.

For people who are nice enough to take a look from time to time please do so more often you might see more interesting things here.

Have you read this new article of Ebrahim Nabavi?? Well I guess most of did .Here he starts talikng to god(as if nobody has done such thing before)well it is very strange from a very distinctive follower of shariaty (or better exfollower)to right such thing .you see god has created us the way that we creat a computer software isnt it stupid to think that a computer software has the right to complain to us why we have created another software to delete a bunch of software with it???I mean god is not our velayateh faghih who is just a small creature like ourselves god is our creator Mr nabavi and he has every right to do whatever he wants to do with us.On the otherhand my friend have you forgotten that only 20 years a go god was totally in your personal team god was the one who was Ghasem and Jabbar??where was your complaints to god when they started killing those poor people in kurdistan or other parts of Iran in the beginning of revoloution??where were your complaints to god or his sign?Ayatollah on earth ??god has created us and given us the choice to be an angel or an evil being an angel or evil is totally our choice do not put the responsibility and shortcomings of mankind on god .We are responsible for whatever happens in this earth nobody else.
