Strength of A WOMAN !!-
ANY Nation that leaves out the contributions of a section of its society can never stand up!!-hoping Americas most trusted democratic friends[P-gulf states] take some lessons !!.
THANKS once more Mark for sharing THIS ONE!!.
Idiot remark. Carefull, US fat ass brain fart alert!
Just look at those clowns doing "Karate" drills...The Iranian equivalent of rednecks, mullets included.
IOn one hand one worries About what Syria and Iraq become hopefully will not happen to Iran. That would be exactly the outside influence try to develop. In the other hand this is reverse class warfare of the Shah era. Can Iran resolve its differences without violence when it happens? Does the consciousness rise to that level when there is blood in the street?
In addition would you please either do not respond to non Iranian ignorant comments or when you do not impolitely! Some of us live in America! Call this place home. If one dosn’t understand the facts, this is a good REPRESENTATION and learning source.
Let's hope they will never ever point that gun at an unarmed civilian.
That has certainly and beyond any doubt happened many times in iran, just today, not over issues of theft, rape or evil which are all common there and often committed by these this but because some iranian was trying to protest such behavior and/or assert rights that are commonplace in the United States.
How else do you expect a mafia tegime to keep a population in line?
They need to upgrade their body armor!
I am so glad I left Iran when I had a chance. Anyone who can leave that forsaken place for a dignified, normal life in a civilized country should do it.
Sartre the famous French Philosopher and existentialist has said :
"Every nation deserves the government ("political system") that they have"
These are the only supporters of the islamic terrorist regime.
The theocracies one and only "enemy" is the Iranian nation.
I was amazed! While I was reading your article, I was thinking how it's possible to make a blog so interesting, and informative. You are a very skilled blogger. Carry on your blogging. Please write about hand to hand combat .
