McCain and Obama sound bites vs Torquemadas in Iran

Wikipedia says this about sound bites, "Not everyone enjoys hearing sound bites. They tend to sound best when delivered unplanned, and the logical inverse is often true -- the planned sound bite can easily ring forced and cast doubt as to the speaker's integrity."

And so McCain's recent statement, "As more people, businesses, pension funds and financial institutions across the world divest from companies doing business with Iran, the radical elite who run that country will become even more unpopular than they are already. Years ago, the moral clarity and conviction of civilized nations came together in a divestment campaign against South Africa, helping to rid that nation of the evil of apartheid. In our day, we must use that same power and moral conviction against the regime in Iran, and help to safeguard the people of Israel and the peace of the world.", sound so much like a poitical sound bite. It is almost as bad as Obama's one of wanting to meet the Seyyeds in Qom.

These political sound bites have done nothing for The Iranian. The Iranian is beyond politics, religion, or commerce. Like any human being, he or she has Free Will, but unlike most advanced democracies, has fallen for the typical politician's and theocrat's cheap trick to vote. I must say that even though Iran is one of the oldest countries in the world, it was democratically quite naive way back in 1979; when with one vote, it threw out the baby and the bath water. Why did we in Iran get rid of the whole essence of what it meant to be Iranian, with what was just a political gesture.

That vote on Iran, changed the name and the flag of Iran. That is how potent politics can get, if it allowed to go too far, or should I say, if it is allowed to be abused - and it was abused by the Seyyeds. But one could say that it was more a case of there not being any organization to stop politics and democracy from interfering in the cultural affairs in Iran, than anything else. That is why the Seyyeds have such safeguards in place, to keep democracy more of a self-selection fiasco, than anything else. As such they are quite correct in defending their mantle. But whether this mantle is Iranian is another question. What is more interesting is how the world treats them as representatives of The Iranian. These are the real questions I am dealing with below.

Of course the Seyyeds do not represent The Iranian. The Iranian has its roots from the Zend-Avesta and most Iranians have ironically found themselves even more now, than anytime before, as Iranian first, and something else second. The Shahanshah, who did not profess to know much about the Zend-Avesta, nevertheless found The Iranian in him, when he read The Shahnameh (which is a bad copy of the Khodayeh-Namak). Iranians did have a "Spiritual Renaissance" again in rather strange times of the Moguls, when Koran was no longer the one and only book allowed, and an amazing array of book were written. People nowadays learn Persian to read Hafez. No book in the world is so rich in its poetry. What is the Spirit so deep in the Iranian psyche, that is bursting to get out? It had a chance in Hafez, but there is a lot more. Why? Because The Iranian can be said to reach to before the last ice-age, if we are to believe what is written in the Vendidad. Yima speaks of the preparation of the coming ice-age and how we need to prepare for mass migrations. I need to bring all this in, so that the world realises why it is so easy for an average Iranian to ignore the Seyyeds and just carry on his life. The Iranian is at peace within, and his Spirit; it is for an Iranian a very personal existential belief. He thinks into realms that have little to do with the Seyyeds' dogma. But it does not really help in this mundane world of aggression. Iranians laugh at the Seyyed, and their spirit does not allow them to react angrily. Seyyeds want to die for a cause. The Iranian celebrated Life as in Nowrooz. But it does react. Just look at the mass abstention that took place in the Seyyed selection just a month or so ago. That shows the world how The Iranian does not care to use violence to ruin his future. We Iranians want to remove these upstarts, that do not respect the 20,000 year heritage of Iran. They and their US tennis partners insult the land of Iran with fearmongering and siphoning the oil fund to waste money on warfare instead of healthcare.

So I say to Mr Obama, please answer these simple questions, before using Iran as another sound bite in your election trails. Your media is so powerful that whatever you say is blown so out of proportion that you need to be quite careful of what you say. You represent change, but what you propose is not change. First of all, why is it that you, Mr Obama think that for one minute the Seyyed, who wants to return the whole of Western Asia into a place for his Madhi to return to, listen to you. You have nothing new to say that he does not know already. In his eyes you are actually guilty, because you converted out of Islam. In Iran it is said the Seyyed will soon pass a law, that will allow anyone who converts out of Islam, to be killed. So we have an Islamic Inquisition going on in Iran, and you want to fly in and deal with the Torquemadas in Iran.

And now we have Mr McCain, who wants to use financial leverage on these Seyyed Torquemadas in Iran. So let's look at this logically. He wants anyone who is dealing with them, to stop that business. That means that the Chinese, who provide corporations like Wal-Mart; the land, the people, and the energy that comes from Iran, to stop dealing. So that means that Wal-Mart should stop operations in China. And it is not just Wal-Mart, it is most of the world's corporations. Next you have the corporations that deal with the US and the Seyyeds in Iran via proxy. How can this sound bite ever materialise to anything more than just that, a sound bite.

I just wish that the US candidates stop this immature postering and leave Iranians to deal with the Seyyeds. We need to win against the propaganda war that has misinformed the world about The Iranian. Help Iranians to have proper representation outside Iran at least. Start with the UN, and ask the illegal representative of the Seyyeds to be thrown out, because of their position on nukes. Ask the UN to create, just like they did in Afghanistan; a government in exile, made up of the most educated and professionally capable Iranians, wherever they are. They just need to put Iran above anything else. I can assure you that most advanced Iranians will gladly put some part of their life to serve their country, if the UN asked them to. Next we need this group of people to challenge the Seyyeds with giving instructions to the people of Iran that are following instructions at gun point, to get ready for a General Strike. We do not need a military strike Mr McCain; which only serves your need to keep your military a reason d'etre to be in the area, and get more funding from your US population. We do not need Mr Obama to engage with the Seyyeds. We need Iranians to deal with the Seyyeds. I believe that once the government in exile actually engages with the Seyyeds, with warnings of General Strike, and gets support from all the unions and workers inside Iran, then the Seyyeds aura of legitimacy will diminish. They do not actually have legitimacy, but have the air to appear legit to the world media. Once the media also get the confidence in the new government in exile, then the Seyyeds are ready to leave Iran. The world media needs to be told by the UN of not representing them in what they write.

But where will they go? As a person who believes in the tenets of non-violence as enshrined in our Holy Zend-Avesta, we need to give them a safe passage. And they want to go to their holy places in Iraq, so let them. It is really a matter of Iraqi government to deal with. The argument between the sons of Abraham is purely an Iraqi matter. Cyrus the Great brought peace to the area by rising above the religious issue and saw in the humanitarian ways of the Zend-Avesta. This is the way it will proceed. Think out of the Biblical box and see the more ancient roots of the area, that are part of Iran's rich ancient past.

National Pride of Iran

"This has become an issue of national pride," he said during an hourlong interview at Iran's permanent mission in New York. Regardless of what Iran is offered in talks, he said, "the Iranian people will not accept suspension" of its enrichment program as the UN Security Council has demanded.Still, he said, Iran is seeking to resume negotiations over a wide range of topics, including some aspects of its nuclear program

http://www.boston.com/news/world/articles/2008/05/31/iran_cool_to_suspending_nuclear_agenda/

This idiot is the Seyyeds' representative not Iranians' representative.  Iranians would listen to the UN resolution more than any Seyyed resolution.

In fact, it is the Iranian nation that is helping the IAEA, to uncover what the Seyyeds are doing illegally with Iran's oil fund. The amount of money that is wasted on Mahdi projects that serve the Seyyeds' own agenda is immense. Iranians know that gas energy projects are a better solution, and they do not raise undue suspicion.

So what is the "National Pride of Iran"? Is it to become a Seyyed nation; that acts on its own and becomes labelled more and more as a rogue nation by all other nations? No it is not.  The Seyyed regime is that way, not Iran.  The Seyyeds say that the US has forced the UN.  But the US or other nations cannot force the UN. The Chinese have been bribed by the Seyyeds to stop the UN from taking tougher measures.

So Iranians are being misrepresented and the world has actually now finally realised that. There is a slow non-violent process of change afoot.  The non-violent regime change will be the main national pride of Iran for years to come.  Non-violence is key, and that is one of the main national prides of Iran.  It is the most revered and ancient pride that stems from our holy book, the Zend-Avesta.

It has taken thirty years now, and the Seyyeds have been identified, and in Iran it is an "us and them" situation. Clearly the self-selection process, that has just put the new set of Seyyeds in control of the machinery of state, know that the masses did not vote for them. Iranians are even more proud of what it means to be an Iranians, ironically thanks to the Seyyeds' self-selection process.

The people want the UN to throw out the Seyyed representative. They want a government in exile.  These last two steps are not that easy. There is a problem that we Iranians have; that is that we think that the world should ignore the Seyyeds, and listen to the people of Iran. But we do not have anyone to represent the real Iranians.  Iranians are divided in a political sense. We might be one of the oldest nations in the world, but politically we are very young. However most of the Iranians have had a crash course in politics now for the past thirty years. In fact we might have too many opinions about politics and have forgotten our "National Pride".

Most Iranians that have the intelligence to take over the machinery of state have put commerce over and above national pride, and have contributed to the brain drain. Even if you remove the political differences, many are still suspicious of the business interests behind any potential future leader in Iran.

National pride actually is the one thing we need right now over and above politics, religion, and commerce.  We need to have a selection of Iranians that the UN will approve that will put nationalism above everything else. They will be the people to handle what is Iranian first and regain Iran's national pride, whilst the Seyyeds are still in Iran. Slowly the Iranians that put Iran's interests above everything else, will be trusted by the world more than the Seyyeds.  At some point they will take over the machinery of the state non-violently.  National pride will then be restored in Iran and a new Iran will be born.  Once that is done, then politicians can be selected and so on and so forth.

Rice's Bush Policy On Iran 'Successful' statement, is wrong.

"I think this is called a successful multilateral coalition of states that have the same view" that Iran should be rewarded for dropping any nuclear weapons ambitions or isolated for pursuing them.

http://www.newsroomamerica.com/leadstory/story.php?id=419023

Rice is wrong. All that has happened is that the Russians and Chinese have become even more with the Seyyeds, than they were before. Financially there is nothing the US could do to make countries or companies not deal with the Seyyeds.

The US can't even stop the various US companies from trading with the Seyyeds. In fact the US needs the violent Seyyeds in power to justify its military buildup in the world.

There is a very simple way to remove the Seyyeds and that is to promote the idea of non-violent General Strike. But that requires media penetration. It would take a week. So the problem is US not the Seyyeds.

Reality check for Seyyeds

Ahmadinejad regards the talks as a "breach" of Iranian-Syrian commitments, the reports said, and Iranian authorities have instructed Iranian media not to report the news about Israel and Syria until Iran prepares a statement. Other media also have noted Iran's silence on the matter.

http://www.jta.org/cgi-bin/iowa/breaking/108721.html

Just when everyone thought, the Seyyeds had a lot of leverage over Iraqis and Syrians, it turns out they don't.

U.S. brands hang on in sanctions-hit Sudan, Iran

Pop into Paytakht shopping centre in Iran's capital and you can snap up a new Dell laptop, choose from a range of Motorola handsets and compare them with the latest Apple iPhone.

These products are among prominent U.S. brands that have stayed on shop shelves in Sudan and Iran in the face of some of the toughest trade restrictions ever imposed

http://us.mobile.reuters.com/mobile/m/AnyArticle/p.rdt?URL=http://www.reuters.com/article/reutersEdge/idUSL143118120080522

Seriously folks the Americans can't even control their own people, and they want to impose sanctions.

Another nuke diversion

"Our plan also provides that the multilateral partnership would take over all Iranian enrichment related facilities, not just the centrifuges," Thomson said. "In addition there would be international personnel on duty at every stage of the enrichment operation - on each shift in the plant, in personnel management ... in the guard rooms, etc."

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/may/23/iran.nuclear

This is just another effort by the Seyyeds to waste time whilst they carry on making their Mahdi bomb.

Iran's Seyyeds captured Iraq, Palestine, and Lebanon

The Arab Passivity allowed Iran to capture Iraq, Palestine, and Lebanon through Mahdi Army and Al Maleki, Hamas and Hezbollah. This is the beginning.

Oil and Brains of Iran

If rice at $1,000 per ton will add 100 million to the ranks of the very poor, how many people will be impoverished by a $200 oil?

Rice will probably climb to $2,000 per ton too because there seems to be a direct correlation now between the price of oil and the price of the cereal which is consumed by half of the world's population.

To speculators, rice and oil are one and the same thing--a commodity to be traded, hoarded, bartered and damn the consumers.

http://www.manilatimes.net/national/2008/may/17/yehey/opinion/20080517opi4.html

What Tony says is not difficult to imagine. This a very good summary of what might well happen. There is no mention of alternative energy and other efficiencies that will be more cost effective.

We had this situation in that last oil spike in the late 70's when the Seyyeds' Peak Oil men were at work. At that time the North Sea was going to be explored and once they came on stream, the price of oil hit $10. So the same sort of thing will happen.

Why will that happen? Well, companies like Exxon are not about to shift into solar or wind or any other energy. They stand to lose a lot of money, and the world is pretty much ruled by them. So they want the price to go up, so that they can find oil in more expensive areas, even though it literally comes out of the ground on its own in Iran.

One day the oil will not come from the Persian Gulf and that is what the West wants. When you factor all the head-aches associated with getting oil from such characters as the Seyyeds or Arabs, who make such a fuss about everything, then the West would rather dig deeper somewhere else.

But if Iran had its civilized citizens work for its own country; yes that means returning to Iran from Los Angeles and other megapopulated Iranian centres of the world, then Iran would become the most advanced nation in Western Asia. So the main problems is the oil and brain drain of Iran.

Sad to say it, but ask a poor man in Iran, what does he want to do, and he will tell you, that he wants to go to America. He has fallen for the life style he has seen on TV programmes. He knows he can have Ghormehsabzi in LA and he has more money in his pocket than staying in Iran.

This situation is nothing new. How many doctors I used to come across every holiday when I used to fly back to Iran in 70's when I was at a British boarding school. The doctors used to tell me, "oh you are from Shemiran", and your family is well connected. But I used to hit back saying,"but the people need your services" and they would say, how am I going to live to a high standard?

So we had a nightmare scenario in Iran in the 70's. Iran was not developing fast enough. The Shahanshah was told that he was aloser, and the money was going into his pocket, instead of basic infrastructure, so that doctors could serve and make money in Iran. I will not give you a boring history lesson of what happened next.

But look at the situation now. We have after a decade or so of relative calm, the country again being sqweezed big times for its intelligencia, and restricted even more by both the Seyyeds and their policies, which have had dire consequences for trade. People have had to set up shop in Dubai, and use all kinds of nifty ways to by-pass the American banks. In summary they ended up doing business with China. So Iran is dealing with China instead of US as it used in the times of Shahanshah.

So why is it that no one screams and shouts in the Western liberal press like they did then about this Chinese monopoly. The most we have heard was the leading article in the Economist about the new colonialist role of China. But that's it. There are no cartoons of Chinese rulers with the Seyyeds, like the ones we used to get of the Shah.

So the world has reduced Iran to an exclusive supplier of energy to western industries in China; the people will be siphoned off to America and Australia; and no one will be bothered to unite the intelligencia all over Iran in exile. The reason is simple. They do not want another Japan in Western Asia. Just suck our oil and brains.

Seyyeds think US is under threat.

Iran's ambassador to Russia said Tehran sees no reason to receive any sort of security guarantee.

Iran believes that this is the US which needs to be given such a guarantee; Interfax news agency quoted Gholam Reza Ansari as saying at a press conference.

http://www.isna.ir/Main/NewsView.aspx?ID=News-1132769&Lang=E

Can anyone understand what this guy means, by stating that the US needs to be given such a guarantee? It is implying that the US is under great threat and will suffer. Perhaps he thinks that the great Shiite Mahdi will hit the US. Is he nuts? But the fact that the Russians take them seriously is very funny.

Iran's subprime crisis looming

However, now it has become clear to all that massive liquidity and constant rises in government expenditures are the driving forces behind inflation.

All this occurred because the billions of dollars that poured into Iran's coffers due to the unprecedented oil prices of the past few years were converted into rials and injected into the economy.

To create more jobs, the banks started providing easy loans, but the money was channeled into speculative real estate and commercial activities rather than production activities, which drove prices up.

http://www.tehrantimes.com/index_View.asp?code=168384

Wow doesn't this have similarities to what has just happened to the US?
