HUMAN first, then a proud IRANIAN: The fantasy of democracy in an Arab state

HUMAN first, then a proud IRANIAN

This blog represents the way I see some of the most significant events impacting the world and its citizens. This blog also represents how I react to the events as a member of humanity with a voice, a determined voice that insists to be heard. The voice of an Iranian who loves his country but his priority is humanity; humanity without border. I will say what I want to say, when I want to say it, and how I want to say it, but I will never lie. I will also listen; I promise.

The fantasy of democracy in an Arab state

"And so here we go again. No weapons of mass destruction. No links between Saddam and 11 September. No democracy. Blame everybody. Blame the spooks. But don't blame Messers Bush and Blair. And don't blame the American neo-conservatives who helped to push the US into this disaster. They don't even exist. And if you say they did, you know what you're going to be called."

Robert Fisk: "Arab states are largely squalid, corrupt, brutal dictatorships. No surprise there. We created most of these dictators." Read it here or here.
