The Burning Question for all Iranians

This statement is so true:

The burning question of why Iran is not yet free, can perhaps answered here: Iranian's future it is what we make of it. Until people understand that becoming an regime opponent is not just about having differences of opinion with the regime but requires working together toward a common goal of regime change, Iran will continue its regression to a medieval pariah, with nuclear capability, in the eyes of much of the civilized world. Quite frankly, maybe some Iranians both inside and outside Iran are not ready for change because they don't portray themselves in the political game as willing to seize the opportunity to make the right move. If the so-called opposition were willing to put their own agenda and personal pride on the back burner and practice some of the slogans they shout at their meetings, we wouldn't still be writing about the future of Iran nearly three decades after the Mullahs came to power.
Well said.

Iranian Constitutional Revolution

It is on this day, that the Iranians took the very first step in modern times, towards democracy in what is known as the Iranian Constitutional Revolution. Of course Iranians have known democracy from a long time ago. The sacred book of Iranians, the Zend-Avesta, refers to choice and liberty in society.

The Iranian Constitutional Revolution (also Persian Constitutional Revolution and Constitutional Revolution of Iran) took place between 1905 and 1911. The revolution marked the beginning of end of Iran's feudalistic society and led to the establishment of a parliament in Persia.

Persian Constitutional Revolution was the first event of its kind in the Middle East. The Revolution opened the way for cataclysmic change in Persia, heralding the modern era. It saw a period of unprecedented debate in a burgeoning press. The revolution created new opportunities and opened up seemingly boundless possibilities for Persia’s future. Many different groups fought to shape the course of the Revolution, and all sections of society were ultimately to be in some way changed by it. The old order, which Nasser-al-Din Shah Qajar had struggled for so long to sustain, finally passed away, to be replaced by new institutions, new forms of expression, and a new social and political order.

Iranian Opposition

Iranians are a very old nation and our culture, and our astrologers recognised Christ. So do not mix us up with the Islamists or Hezbollah.

We had in Iran a Magi in Iran that did not like the spread of Christianity in the 7th Century and wanted to change the Iranian philosophy which was more akin to I-Ching and Taoism, called dualistic Zoroastrianism.

He learnt from a Christian Priest what the origins of Judaism and Christianity were, and later went and found a descendant of Abraham's first son from his second wife. Salman Parsi or Salman Al-Farsi then told Halabi Qureshi (Koreishi) aka Mohammed, that he is the most honorable man in Arabia, and enlightened him to conquer all.

Most of you know about the rest. So If you please be careful when you speak of Iranians. We are the oldest Empire in the world, and our culture is much more sophisticated than most know.

The Jews were released by Cyrus the Great, and Jesus Christ was primarily respected because the Iranian Magi predicted his birth and respected him.

The trouble we have now can be only solved if the world allowed the people of Iran to learn that they can have non violent change if they went on a General Strike.

If the mad Islamist Fascists were brought into conversation about how weak they are in face of General Strike, then they would fall apart. So we need to pop a silly question like "what would you do if the secular Iranian people decided to stay in their pyjamas for a week?
