China Sindrome

China, Iran’s second-largest crude buyer, lifted crude imports under term supply agreements from Tehran by a third in 2008 versus 2007.

It really sickens me, to think that if US was doing this, they would have gotten criticised to the teeth. And it is not just the support of the mad mullahs in Iran, the Chinese are behind all the trouble makers like Zimbabwe, Venezuela. You would think it would be easily solved. But it isn't. The funny part of it is that Wal-Mart's earnings came out today and they made a nice billion a month. Where do they make their stuff for the US consumer? China. Now imagine the room you are living in without anything made in China. Imagine the things you are wearing or would not be wearing, without China. Food for thought. How about a Chinese take away?

Iran's Seyyeds want to move the capital of Iran from Tehran to elsewhere by 2025.

The Seyyeds have decided to move the Capital of Iran from Teheran to somewhere else because of the danger of Earthquakes by 2025.

All of Iran is Earthquake prone. Perhaps Isfahan is least prone, and politically it could be possible that Rafsanjani wants to do this for his own sake. Having a more decentralised Iran, with the cultural, administrative, legislative, and commercial centres, in different cities, on the dutch model seems very sensible, but quite hard to do.

Legislating slower building growth and higher Earthquale standards is less costly. But then tell Rafsanjani that.

The Iran Problem with Hanson & Baer: Chapter 1 of 5 - Uncommon Knowledge on National Review Online

But it is our problem. We see that they do not know that ethnically Iran is not divided. Do they want Balkanize Iran? We know that the Democrats did this to Yugoslavia. They probably would want to divide the whole of the Middle into tiny manageable pieces.

Sanction China, not Iran

What can we do with the Chinese? They have the world by the ...., and nothing can be done about it. There is far too much money invested in there with all the cheap oil coming from Iran's Seyyeds. The worlds' industrial complex is there. Sanctions need to be placed on China not Iran.

Iranians should organize more

Britain sparked controversy yesterday by sending its second most senior diplomat in Tehran to the ceremony at which Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Supreme Leader, officially endorsed President Ahmadinejad’s hotly disputed re-election. Iran’s opposition leaders, who say the election was rigged, boycotted the event.

We Iranians have a major problem. We want other governments to sort out our problems, and then when they don't we blame them.

We are the oldest civilization on Earth and at the moment we cannot get ourselves organized, just because we blame others. The way to remove the aliens is by not working for them. It is that simple.

If enough people said that if we all united along peaceful lines, giving peace a chance to unite us all who are against them, then nothing can break our simple but very strong bond, and we can organize ourselves against them. Fact is that they are better organized than us. Simple.

Zakaria needs to learn about Iranians

It doesn't appear the three forces are all pointed against the Iranian government. Democracy is certainly working against the regime, but is religion? It's unclear. Iranians don't like theocracy, but they are religious, and clearly (President Mahmoud) Ahmadinejad got the votes of the more rural and observant masses. As for nationalism, neither side can truly claim it.

Again, like Taheri, Zakaria claims he knows about Iran, when he statements are assumptions. The people of Iran put Nowrooz above Islam, and he should know that. Finally the reason that Mr Mousavi had so many people with him, was that the nationalists came out and voted for him.

Amir Taheri of Iran does not know the word Gozineshi found in the Avesta

Taheri points out that until the end of the nineteenth century neither Farsi nor any of the other main Muslim languages had words for republic, let alone democracy.

Sometimes in life, the problems we have become so clear. The world thinks that Mr Taheri knows it all. Moreover a number of journalists, typically of Moslem origin, think they know it all. Well they are wrong. The oldest book in the world The Zend Avesta speaks of free will and choice with words like gozineshi.

Maybe that is why Iran is stuck in these doldrums. Learn about the Zoroastrian or ancient philosophy of Iran.

Iranians must unite along a non-violent approach

The video above sums up very well the scenes of the bloody struggles against the alien Seyyed regime. This is exactly what I did not want.

What we can do, is to agree along a peaceful non-violent unity. That we can all agree on. Anyone who does not agree is with them. They are violent. The Iranian Spirit will only live in a non-violent person.

Simple.

Iran on Strike - is it happening correctly?

This picture is pretty close to what I think people perception of a National Strike is in Iran. They are wrong. It is as if I am trying to squeeze an elephant, through a small door.

The Iranian mind does not want to think out of the aggressive, confrontational box. The street marches put us on the wrong tracks.

But you kids insisted, and you made heros. I hated to see all that blood. But now what? The country is besieged by the Basij. It is as if the Russian army has moved in.

A National Strike is a concept that is used in the mind first, and then made into reality. We need to describe very fully its power, and its consequences to the other side. It is designed to change the nature of the other side to think it can talk to us and negotiate along civil lines.

The only time I will know that National Strike is working, is when the other side mentions it, and asks to talk to us.

Right here would be fine. Mr Mousavi is not part of this side of the equation. He is on the other side of the equation as well.

In the mean time, my task it to educate the people who are on this side of the equation, to act accordingly as you are not. And that is why you are where you are.

We are all part of the formula.

Mapping the protests in Tehran - BBC disinformation

Protests have erupted on the streets of Tehran following the disputed presidential poll, which saw Mahmoud Ahmadinejad returned to power. With many foreign media correspondents facing restrictions on their reporting, the people of Iran have been using mobile phones to tell the world what is going on. Some of the images sent to the BBC from the people of Tehran have been plotted on this map.

If you look the map, you get the feeling that there must have been more. Hmm ... another disinformation ploy by BBC.
