Religiously controlled governments concern western secular societies. Western societies also eschew patriarchies. Thus, having a reclusive, religiously controlled patriarchy is difficult for western societies to understand and to trust. Western involvement in Iran has been distasteful since the CIA overthrow in 1953. I agree with Mike, we shouldn't dictate to people what they don't want. Don't want feminism? That shouldn't be ours to foist upon someone. Want religion to govern your life? So be it. The language of Islam is hard for a Western mindset to understand. |
You like honor killings in your country? Okay. What am I going to do about it? Send my children to die for your girls and women? No.
I’ve got news for Iran. WE ARE NOT IN IRAN. I repeat, we are not in Iran. Leave us alone. Stop trying to rule every country around you. Stop trying to erase Israel from the map. Stop trying to build nuclear weapons while at the same time shouting “DEATH TO AMERICA!” Just live your lives in peace like your people (supposedly) want. |
I have a question. Do Iranians really have freedom and fair elections as we understand it in the west?

I am not saying that we are perfect example of modern religious democracy or anything close to that but we are the people who wanted to have democracy like many other nations but you did dirty to us, multiple times, and you can’t expect us to trust you or your democracy. Look at how in bed you are with the regional dictators. Do you think their people are too stupid to want to have a democracy? What would you do if for example there is a revolution in Saudi Arabia today? Would you help them? Or would you do whatever you can to tear them down like what you have been doing to us? Living in peace requires respecting each other and respecting each other requires understanding each other, with isolating us you are never going to understand us and there will be no peace because of that. |
You sound like Trump, using capitals and all. Not going to scare me off or convince me either.
No, you are not in Iran. We kicked you out, remember? But you have your big mouth wide open to swallow us off the map. Should I post a photo of hangry (hungry+ angry) Americans around us or its too obvious?? |
Out of curiosity, are you orange too?

We, on the other hand, have a system to eliminate whoever has slightly different set of thinking and policies at the first place to make sure none of them get elected. lol |

People may live under whatever system they wish. I would not wish to live under a system where religion has a significant influence on government. If one looks at the three Abrahamic religions, you'll see the religions are largely responsible for many of the world's wars. Totalitarian regimes tend only to benefit those at the top with no hope for those at the bottom but there are plenty of places where life could be enjoyable---- if you leave politics out of it. |
I think it must be embarrassing for the average person in Iran to see Trump tweet out a request that Iran not shoots it's own citizen protesters.
Only to see protesters shot by their own government. I don't think the average Iranian likes their government. What a destructive path that regime has led their people into. It's sad for them. |
Its unfathomable for an average person in Iran to understand the level of embarrassment you are feeling for having Trump as an American let alone the president of the united state of America.
