Fairly accurate analysis of the situation in Iran

This is a fairly accurate summary analysis of the situation in Iran up to January 1, 2010

Updates on Iran for English speaking readers

Recently, I haven't been writing much in my English blog. However, for those English speaking readers of my blog who would like to know more about the events in Iran, I would suggest to visit hundreds of other blogs about Iran. One that I notice being updated regularly is Neo-Resistance by Naj. Even most of Persian contents are translated to English for those who do not know Persian.

Keep up the good work Naj!

Ahmadinejad at his best

This idiot is not my president!
He doesn't even look like us!

This monkey is not our president! Don't deal with him!

Major Western countries have almost always sacrificed the truth and decency in order to maintain their interests; legitimate or not.

In short, Western claim of respecting democracy is nothing but a big lie.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was officially installed today as president of Iran despite widespread evidence of fraud in his favour during the so-called presidential elections in Iran.

The world knows that he is not our president and now the question is that what the world, particularly the distrusted western leaders will do. Will they deal with him just like nothing has happened and maintain their indecent tradition of being jerks or will they at least limit their relations with him to the minimum limits that are diplomatically required?

We will see!

A song for Iran and its courageous people

Iran is boiling! Beware of the foreign gifts to the regime.

Yes, Iran is at a critical point of its history. This may be the beginning of an end for the regime in Iran. Do I want them to fall in a violent way? I am not sure. But there is one thing I am sure about: they will not fall easily. I know that this would be very costly to the country and to my people.

The regime in Iran will not hesitate to commit any crime, any massacre of the public in order to be in power for a bit longer. There will be no limit to, to what extend they are willing to go in cracking down any voice of opposition. They are simply ruthless and will go as far as it takes regardless of the cost to people of Iran. My feeling says that they should go as fast as possible but hey, I am here in the other side of the world in Vancouver, Canada. It is easy for me to subscribe peoples' action against the regime. I'll be safe, but my people will not.

Perhaps one other option is for the regime to remain in power, but begin to fade out. This may have more gradual impact to the change, but at least fewer people will die.

Let me put it this way: If we agree that they do have their followers in the country. If we agree that, at least 5% of people are their followers. If we agree that from that 5%, 1% are true followers who act based on nothing but religious beliefs, and if we agree that when there is a question of religion, humanity takes the back seat, then we have to agree that 1% of the population: 700,000 dumb idiots will act fearlessly and will do anything to save their "religion"; anything! Even if that means killing thousands of people. Now, let's see how easy it is to kill! Imagine only one of these idiots, equipped with all kind of weapons decides to go to one of the busy parts of the city, take his weapons out and kill as many as possible. After all, he sees them all as the enemies of his religion who were not loyal to the leadership. Now, multiply this by 700,000. Too much? Ok! 500,000. No? Let’s say 50,000. Yes, they can devastate lives.

Having said this, I have to admit that we, who live in outside of the country have no right to tell the people in Iran how to deal with this regime. It will turn out that we are behind the people, by miles. Let them lead us. Let's only support what they choose to do.

It is a critical time and the regime has shown that they are very capable of using unpleasant events to their benefits. In first couple of years after the revolution, Iran was perhaps one of (If not the) most democratic countries in the world. Despite the wishes of the regime and its leaders, people kept pushing for their legitimate demands. But there was no crack down. There couldn't be. Until, Iraq (with the help and encouragement from most of the western countries) attacked Iran and the war began. That was nothing but a gift to the ever weakening regime to use the war as an excuse to crack down on peoples' rights and demands. In short, that war solidified the regime in Iran; other wise the regime would have been long gone by now (I have written about this before).

Now similar situation can do the same for the regime. There should be no doubt that religious rights, from all religions, feed each other in the time of need. This is despite their publicly opposing each other: Republicans in the US, Israeli regime and the regime in Iran. They have always helped each other (I have also written about this before). There should be no doubt that, for instance, Israel would love to see Ahmadinejad in power in Iran. This would allow Israel to put more pressure on the Obama's US to be harsher on Iran. Now, the nightmare will happen if Israel used the opportunity to attack Iran's, say, nuclear facilities. This will not kill the regime, but it will allow it to use it, just like what they did with Iraq war, to once agian consolidate their grip on power and crack down on people's rights. This is of course coupled with the unfortunate fact that such an attack can change priorities of many decent people as well and as a result, weaken the movement.

So, I am just hoping such an attack does not happen, otherwise, my country's prosperity will be once again delayed and who knows for how long. And then, I for one, will more than ever hate the criminal leaders.

...And the game continues.... .

I just said it; only a couple of days ago. Didn't I?

Here we go again.

Just butt out America!

The CIA has received secret presidential approval to mount a covert "black" operation to destabilize the Iranian government, current and former officials in the intelligence community tell the Blotter on ABCNews.com.
The sources, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the subject, say President Bush has signed a "nonlethal presidential finding" that puts into motion a CIA plan that reportedly includes a coordinated campaign of propaganda, disinformation and manipulation of Iran's currency and international financial transactions....

".....coordinated campaign of propaganda, disinformation..."

This is exactly what the regime wants. Using this excuse, they will definitely crack down on any voice of disagreement and criticism coming from some newspapers. They have done it before, and they will do again. THANKS TO THE F*CKING US LEADERS".

"Helping Iranians gain their freedom"
"Democracy for Iranians"
"75 million dollars to help Iranians overthrow their government"
and now,
"Destabilizing the regime in Iran" ... and bullshits like that.

These are the non-stop bullshit coming from the US leaders, particularly the current f*cked up leaders of the US, that have always not only not helped Iranians in their quest for freedom, but have always provided the regime with the excuse for cracking down on people in the name of "national security" and "foreign threat", thus, further stabilizing itself. Now the regime will use the opportunity, once again, provided to them by the US, to arrest so many of those who it could not arrest without the accusations such as "spying for the foreigners" and "plotting to overthrow the regime" with the "help" of foreigners.

This US's non-stop policy of hurting the Iranians and their struggle for freedom, began with encouraging and supporting Saddam to attack Iran in 1980 which resulted in a complete stabilization of the regime which used the opportunity to tighten its grab on power in Iran and has continued since one way or another.

I just wish the US leaders would left us alone for a while. Then, the Iranians would, sooner or later, find a way to gain their freedom. What hurts me the most is that all this damage to Iranians' struggle is now coming from a dummy and disgusting idiot who happens to be the President of the United States; an idiot who has difficulty recognizing his right hand from left without the help from the crooks such as Cheney and Rove.

Once again the US is only presenting the regime with the gift that only helps them stabilize themselves even more.

The US should just f*ck off and stay out of the Iranian business. That would be the biggest "help" we could get from the US.
