I am so sorry to hear about your brother. He is in a better place now. The day of retribution will come and the killers will pay.

Do not waste your precious time with Samuel. He is a paid mouthpiece for the regime. He like his brothers who beat people in streets of Iran has sold his honor, his county and his countrymen and women for a few pieces of silver. For him you, your brother, your sister-in-law (your brother’s wife) and your nephew are not Friends (Khodei). You, your family and people like me are the enemies because we are too smart and we do not buy into their 8th century ideology.

I do not read any of Samuel rubbish. He and people like him do not buy their own rubbish either. They just want to force their nonsense on people so they can keep them slave and ignorant so they can hang on to power and continue rob the country. These idiots hang people who have drug and alcohol addiction and they themselves drink alcohol like a fish drinking water and smoke opium like a chimney. If punishment for smoking opium is hanging, Ali Khamenei (I think Khaanei is a better name for him) also known as Ali geda (bagger) should be hanged 10 times a day.

Keep your spirit high and please stay safe on 16 Azar. I will be listening to the live broadcast of 16 Azar on http://www.epersianradio,com . A lot of people from inside Iran call this radio station during demonstration and give report.

In solidarity with Iranian people a demonstration is scheduled for 4 PM on Monday December 7 (16 Azar), across the street from the White House in Washington, D.C. I also heard Iranians in Finland will be gathering in front of the Parliament building in Helsinki to voice their support.

Please check back after the 16 Azar protest and let us know you are okay. And please if you go give a shout for me and say “Go to hell Islamic Republic”

Kick their butts.

First of all thank you for your mental support and all good wishes and positive energies that you spread. Please let them come as much as you can. We need them.

@ Samuel.

I think you are far from the reality in Iran. I suggest you to make a trip to Iran, have conversation with some families to understand the reality of “Islam” in Iran. Let me tell you my own experience which has happened to my own family:

- My brother who was a well educated expert, was arrested for his political views (No act was done by him, JUST HAD POLITICAL VIWES!!!) they asked him to change his mind and think in their way. He simply replied: “Unfortunately my brain does not work in the way the the torturer asking me”. my brother was severely tortured, kept in isolated cells in three years!!! with no right to meet his family and finally executed without any court, without any right to have a solicitor, without any right to have a public court, without letting his family to attend in the court. Also in order to break him further, they arrested his wife and my 2 year old nephew. the little boy (only 2 year old) was beaten in front of his parents, in order to break them.

Have you read what is happening to our journalists in Iran? They have been sentenced for decades in prison and banned from political talks and writing for life. Only because they questioned the health of election in Iran!!!!!!

Shall I name all young innocent who were arrested for attending in a peaceful demonstration, tortured, raped and killed???

Mr Samuel if this is called Islam, if this is what you are preparing for us. I am sorry to say so, but to hell with you all.

We fight Iranian regime till we have made a peaceful society where our people and our children live in peace and democracy. You belong to past, Historically you are dead!

Fanaticism in any shape, colour, philosophy or religious believes is dangerous. For the past few years, we have been suffering from intolerance and imposing policies both from Muslim sides (such as Taliban, Iranian regime, Pakistan, Hizbollah etc….) and from their opposite “counterparts” (in form of G.W Bush’s narrow minded and arrogant foreign policy, supported by Israeli gangs both in political and economical and military forms). I personally put them both in one category despite they fight each other.

I believe that the world order and the role of the UN does not represent the reality of the current world situation. Thanks to the Internet, satellites and all forms of information exchange, people around the world are very well informed now; Actually more than ever. We cant accept double standards any longer. We wont accept priorities for one, for no reason any longer.

World leaders need to act quickly before it’s too late. We need to re-engineer the international organizations in a way that they reflect today’s situation and today’s needs. The military invasions and violent acts, does not go anywhere. I am against any kind of fanaticism, particularly in a form of religious or political. The old methods, not only are not efficient anymore, but they feed abusers such as Ahmadinejad, Chavez and Islamic or Jewish hardliners.

At last, not at least, wish us good luck for 16 Azar (7 December, Green movement on Student Day) in Iran. The Iranian regime is going to stop the Internet and telephone connections for a few days soon. If you don’t hear from me, it’s due to this problem, otherwise wish us good luck.
Movement for freedom must not be separated by political borders. We all are equally responsible for the safety and the health of our beautiful planet.

At the end of the day, whether in a year or 30 years, people like you will be beaten and freedom shall conquer.

Keep preaching my friend, you’ll see!

Marg bar dictator

Which is were they belong.

“what they would like to do”. Sure and I “would like to do” something that would make me richer than the Sultan of Brunei. My odds are better than theirs both short term and long term.

Well said – and a good reminder of how the Iranian regime does consistently attempt to distract from the real issues facing them.

But, I don’t think too many here are distracted. We (I?) are just a bit bored – waiting for 7 Dec :)

Most Muslims growth is not even in the Middle East. http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/asiapcf/10/07/muslim.world.population/index.html

Where are these 6 million conversions from Islam?

The far right in Europe is basically a continuation of traditional western racism and its prejudices extend far beyond Islam. Look how they treat the Roma communities. In any event the far right will help discipline, radicalize and bring closer together muslim communities in Europe.

Interestingly many anti-revolution Iranian have a lot in common with the far right: Anti-Islam combined with anti-arab bigotry.

One final point. You keep portraying muslims as somehow self-isolating from other worldwide phenomenons. One reason that Iran has been so succesful in Latin America is that it has formed alliances with other anti-imperialist nations. The indigenous peoples in Latin America in places like Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador are finally overthrowing control by white, europeanized small elites. They are natural allies for the anti-western Iranian Revolution. It does not matter that such allies are not Muslims.

Watch for Peru to follow (with future president Humala) this trend as well as Guatemala.

In similar fashion Hezbollah in Lebanon has no problem forming an alliance with that portion of the Christian population led by Aoun. In Iraq Shiite Muslims have deftly used the American invasion to bring the country under Shiite control for the first time in centuries and incidentally one of Iran’s closest allies.

Islam, even radicalized political Islam, is far more flexible and adaptable than you are willing to acknowledge. Don’t fall for the easy temptation to create a caricature which is then all so easy to knock down.

You say Islam is on the rise, chide the swiss/french, and then say we should pay attention to what Islam did to Russia. Have you noticed the far right is on the rise in Europe for no other reason than the real and perceived threat of Islam. Why has this occured.?

Islam is rising because of a resurgence of faith, petrol dollars, and an abnormal birth rate across much of the Islamic world.

1) No problem with faith except in many cases it is largely due to the perceived threat of those evil non believers. From the MB, the Wahhabis, and the Mullahs in Iran they have built a whole industry that promotes the we vs them mentality what you may call Dar Al Islam and Dar Al Harb.

2) Petrol dollars is huge but also limited. The reality is the ME states owe over 80% of their GDP to oil and energy resources in what I would call the luck of geology. These ME states are not interdependent economies but almost exclusively dependent ones slaves to the oil revenues from the hated infidels. Just imagine what will happen when oil dries up. When that happens the least of their problems are going to be dawa funding but instead the implosion of their society.

3) Birth rates are a hallmark of the fanatics who like to espouse the belief of out birthing the infidels. This has always been a mantra of those who practice the supremacist ideologies of the Islamists of today and history. This birth rate is why Islam is touted as the fastest growing religion in the world despite the fact almost all other faiths out convert them. In the US only about 10 to 20,000 yearly convert to Islam while as stated by Shiekh Ahmed Katani ” Ever year, 6 million Muslims convert to Christianity.” Ironically Al Jazeera posted this interview but it is of course not available anymore–can’t let that truth out now can we. What the Islamic world fails to realize is this is a deomographic time bomb that will only damage them in the long run. Immigration is being turned off across the globe and what are these Islamic states going to do with these people. For God’s sake most Middle East states have some of the highest unemployment rates in the world! It also ignores the problem most Islamic states have severe problems feeding the people they already have. To me this push for high birth rates is immoral and a disaster waiting to happen.

In my view this rise in Islam is artificial and will only implode on itself. The far right is a reactionary move and will fade once the perceived threat is gone. The Swiss and French moves, while I struggle with them, I do realize they are mostly a reaction of not tolerting the intolerant. Europeans see the lack of stability, religious intolerance, and overt violence in the islamic world and should be rightly concerned. Yes it is fear but it is not the fear of Islam per say but the fear if they don’t act now they will be forced to tolerate the intolerant. The islamic world can gripe about this but what amazes me is the blatant hypocrisy considering many Islamic states make up the who’s who of the worlds worst human rights abusers. Yes we should fear this “Islam” you talk about but in the end it will be these Islamic supremacist who will be the ones cowering. Many Muslims like to say that we are at war with Islam. I like to say we are at war ideologically with those who preach intolerance and they have no concept of what war means to us. I ask them to look up the Nazis and the Communists to see what happens to fascists when the free world goes to war with them.

Thx

Thank you for addressing my questions. I did not know that regime has infiltrated the society so deep and so wide. It sounds so hopeless that it is heart breaking. But as the saying goes it is always darkest before dawn. The sun will shine on Iran if people continue to stand their ground. The rope-a-dope strategy (wear the opponent down and then throw the winning punch for a knockout victory when your opponent is tired and frustrated) may not be a bad strategy for Green Movement.

I want you and others in Iran know that you have achieved a great deal so far. Green Movement and bravery of every man, woman, and child who stood up to the regime has touched the entire world. Your bravery has changed the image of Iranians forever, the image that had been tarnished by Islamic Banana Republic. World community now distinguishes Iranians form its government. You aired the regime dirty laundry and exposed it for what it truly was, a mafia government that runs like a drug cartel. That is not a small accomplishment.

Green Movement is the topic of debate in halls of congress and state houses in many nations. The other evening, I heard Senator McCain making a case for supporting Green Movement in an interview with a cable news channel. Policy makers and law makers in the U.S. have heard and discussed your chant of “Obama, Obama you are either with them or with us”. This is not small.

I agree that discussion and debates that do not lead to any measurable and desirable outcome do not mean much. I also know the Iran situation is very dynamic and things could change rapidly from all sides. I just hope that at the end it changes for better and take a path toward a true democracy that has eluded Iran for so long. It takes time but at the end dictators always lose. For Iran, I hope this time it does not go from bad to worse as it did in 1979.

Give them hell on 16 Azar.
