Recent Iran Election Crisis In A Nutshell

Posted by Ali Sanaei under Ahmadinejad, Elections, Iran, Middle East, Politics, Religion and Spirituality, USA, United Kingdom, War and Military

What you see these days in the media about Iran is a magnified version of a specific part of what is going on in reality, tailored to the Western powers’ benefit. There is a minority in the country who have the West’s tight support, access and running the media, hence make much loader noise and publicise as if they are the majority.

The elections have been legitimate and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has obtained 24.5 million votes out of 40 million. The oppositions, so far, have not handed in a single valid documented reason to truly dispute it. They have been trying to skip the law, use illegal methods, and produce such heavy news against the government and the election results, simply to shortcut and jump on power.

As before, the West does not understand the facts of Iran and has done another miscalculation! Anyway, since Friday the 19th June, after the leader’s speech and his emphasis on obeying the law whatsoever, and the fact that he has an enormous support amongst the people, from the very hour of his speech the number of protesters, which was hundreds of thousands before Friday, started declining to under ten thousand at the day after and now just a few hundred. Things have been settling down. This was a nasty game which is now almost over. Although the story continues!…

On a side note, see the below screenshot; YouTube is not just allowing violent clips to be uploaded unlike their policy during the Israel’s attack on Gaza, but even advertising its abnormal channel dedicated to Iran Elections Crisis.

Western countries are trying to feed the public opinion with its propaganda to distract them from their own crimes all over the world, as if all they have done in the history is bringing peace! Just review in your mind what has gone on in other countries in the recent years by mainly the United States, Britain, France, Israel and their close allies. They are not just brutal with other nations, but unsurprisingly, with their own as well. See these few video clips:

- Police killing a man during the G20 summit in London, UK
- 15 year old girl beat by cops Seattle, USA
- Police beat 62 years old lady, USA
- Police hit woman directly in head, USA

A quick review on Shirin Ebadi’s “Iran Awakening”

Posted by Ali Sanaei under Culture, History and Archeology, Iran, Middle East, Politics

I just finished reading “Iran Awakening“. The book is somehow Shirin Ebadi’s autobiography written by herself and translated by Azadeh Moaveni.

Briefly, she has tried to produce lots of black and white images of Iran by describing a bit of the crisis happend to the benefit of showing a dark picture of the country. Yes, some parts are true, but skimpy without other bits which were happening in parallel. The book I have has a different cover and sub topic comparing to the one now in the market, not sure why she changed it.

It is also interesting to read one of the last paragraphs of the book where she somehow admits that she has not explained stroies completely! She’s a lawyer and knows what to do and how to do it…

If you read the book, do not just believe most of it, supplementary reading is a must. The book does not say the whole truth happend. Something like Marjane Satrapi’s “Persepolis“, which does the same thing.

On Geert Wilders’ Fitna

Posted by Ali Sanaei under Ahmadinejad, Culture, Europe, History and Archeology, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Middle East, Politics, Religion and Spirituality, USA, United Kingdom, War and Military

I just watched Fitna. What I can shortly say for now is that Nine/Eleven, London’s tube, and  etc were done by Wahabbi extremists which are not effectively Muslims by any possible way. If any one goes and reads about the history of them and the foundation of their idealogy, they’ll realise that it’s actually a product of West, especially the UK. All with a plan for such days, and us watching this type of films. By no means this is not Islam.
All religions have this sort of disordered groups in them, that includes Christianity and Judaism. I won’t call a Zionist thug like Saddam a Muslim, same for Bin-Laden as I won’t call Sharon a Jew, or Bush a Christian.
Islam or in general, religions, and being religious is not what you say, it is what you do and how you live in the real life.

Happy Iranian New Year

Greetings for Norouz 1387.

For those who wonder what Norouz is; Norouz was set up by a Persian king called Jamshid about 15,000 years ago based on Sun. The Persian calendar’s commencements and eras has changed many times in the history. However it is the most accurate calendar in the world by one single day difference after ten million years.

The Iranian calendar has also been appreciated by the 6th Shi’ite Imam, Ja’far asSadegh ibn Mohammad (AS) by saying that the Norouz is the day when Ghadeer happened, Norouz is when Sun rose for the first time, and much more which those who can read Farsi (Persian) can find it in the following text:

امام صادق عليه السلام مي‌فرمايد: نوروز روزیست كه در آن پيامبر صلي الله عليه و آله براي حضرت علي عليه السلام در غدير خم پيمان گرفت و آنانكه آنجا بودند به ولايت آن حضرت اقرار كردند و خوشا به حال كسي كه آن را نگه‌داشت و بدا به حال كسي كه آن را زير پا نهاد.
نوروز روزیست كه در آن پيامبر صلي الله عليه و آله حضرت علي عليه السلام را با وادي جنيان مواجه كرد و از آنان ميثاق گرفت.
نوروز روزیست كه در آن علي عليه السلام در جنگ نهروان پيروز گشت.
نوروز روزیست كه در آن قائم ما اهل بيت ظاهر مي‌شود و خداوند او را بر دجال پيروز مي‌سازد.
و نوروزي نيست كه ما در آن منظر فرج نباشيم چرا كه آن روز از براي ماست.
ايرانيان آن را نگاه داشتند اما شما آن را از بين برديد.
و اين [نوروز] اولين روز سال [براي] ايرانيان است.
معلي مي‌گويد: حضرت [اين مطالب را بر من] املاء كردند و من نوشتم.
و نيز معلَّي مي‌گويد:
در صبحگاه نوروز خدمت امام صادق عليه السلام رسيدم.
امام برمن فرمودند: معلي! آيا مي‌داني امروز چه روزیست؟!
عرض كردم: نخير، ولي [همين‌قدر مي‌دانم] روزي‌ست كه ايرانيان آن را روز بزرگي مي‌دانند و گرامي‌اش داشته و در آن روز بر هم تبريك مي‌گويند.
امام فرمودند: قسم به خانه خدا كه اين روز براي امر بزرگي است كه آن را برايت شرح مي‌دهم تا بداني.
عرض كردم: يادگيري اين مطب برايم دوست‌داشتني‌تر از اين است كه عمري جاودان يابم؛ خداوند دشمنان شما را نابود سازد.
امام فرمودند: معلي! نوروز روزي‌ست كه خداوند در آن از انسان پيمان گرفت كه او را بپرستند و برايش شريك قائل نشوند و به دين فرستادگانش گروند.
نوروز روزیست كه خورشيد براي اولين بار طلوع كرد و بادهاي بارور ساز وزيد و گلهاي زمين آفريده شد.
نوروز روزیست كه كشتي حضرت نوح [كه سلام خدا بر پيامبر ما و خاندانش و بر او باد] [بعد از طوفان ] بر فراز كوه جودي ساحل گرفت.
نوروز روزیست كه فرشته وحي، جبرائيل عليه السلام بر پيامبر اسلام نازل شد.
نوروز روزیست كه حضرت ابراهيم بتهاي قوم خود را شكست.
و نوروز روزیست كه پيامبر اكرم حضرت علي عليه السلام را بر دوش خود بلند كرد تا بتهاي قريش را در‌انداخته و درهم شكند.

Also my favourite poem for this occasion:

فلک را سقف بشکافیم و طرحی نو در اندازیم	بیا تا گل برافشانیم و طرحی نو براندازیم
من و ساقی به هم سازیم و بنیادش بر اندازیم	اگر غم لشگر انگیزد که خون عاشقان ریزد
