Iran is an Islamic theocracy.
Clearly it is therefore approved by Allah.
Who would criticise that which Allah has ordained?
No man-made form of governance can surpass that which is divinely inspired.
Only those who have been beguiled by Shaytan would say otherwise.

While arjay the tower of Babel never existed, even Christians have understood it is a fable.
You, we all give in meaning today.
Humanity is a massive thunder of many voices many opinions some no one can understand.
Your charges that I need to get my head out of the sand even give evidence you fail to understand.
It is our right to be different, to think differently, to be wrong or right.
The world in your view is hopeless.
You find reason to protect such as those who enslave Iran from within, ignoring those within that country who every day die for freedom.
You blacken America at every chance but one thing arjay you succeed over whelming success, you contribute to a very real conspiracy.
A lie that has full control of the middle east, it enslaves that part of the world, every part of it including Israel.
Spreading evil lies and hiding the intent to kill all enemys in a war this planet must try to never have.
Look to the good in America or tell me another country that can preserve world peace.
Arjay it is my view you are in no position to tell any one you know better open your eyes bloke understand what Iran wants for us Israel and the west

Arjay,

This info is regarding the 6th of June to the 10th. In the last WEEK.

"Iran Human Rights, June 10: One man was hanged in public in the town of Sarab, northwest Iran.

According to the official Iranian news agency IRNA, the man was hanged in the Chamran square of the town, which is near Tabriz in northwestern Iran. The public hanging took place yesterday Wednesday June 9, and the man who was identified as "M. H." was convicted of murder by a clashnikov.

According to our reports, 20 people have been executed during the last four days."

You said,

"Iranian people live in a quite affuent society unlike many people in the USA"

What's this about head's in the sand?. The term affluent also alludes to "civilized". What's your thoughts on Iran's human rights track record, Arjay?. Seems to me you're evolving from conspiracy theorist to Islamic fundamentalist apologist.

Iran and Turkey have been running joint operations against Kurdish Civilians & PKK Guerrillas (Air & Artillery Bombardment) within the supposedly "protected" Northern Iraqi, Autonomous Province of Kurdistan.

Turkey, as a result of being told by the EU not to bother seeking admission (due to the Armenian Genocide & the ongoing genocide of the Kurds), has chosen its path, and that is to be a major player in the War against the West.

Any "enriched Uranium/Plutonium" Iran sends to Turkey will probably be back there within a week (or Turkey will try to equalize with the other Sunni nations and build its own bomb).

The importance of Kurdistan in this CANNOT be overstated. The US/UK/etc. have been knifed in the back by Turkey, who was our supposed ally in the region (although, to be realistic the signs have been there for some time, as a consequence the airbases in Kurdistan to replace reliance on Incirlik).

As the Incirlik airbase is THE ONLY reason for the continuance of the Alliance, then there is no REAL reason for America & Turkey to remain in an Alliance. The current diplomatic thaw between America and the Russians should leave both free for the moment to do what they want to do, destroy Chechnya and Afghanistan respectively.

I honestly wonder, whether it is time to "give" the Russians a port in the Indian Ocean? They would seriously offset the effects of radical moslem extremists (who they tend to deal with better than us).

In terms of Cold War II type scenarios, it really would be irrelevant, they'd pose less of an "actual" risk than Iran (which would no longer exist - that'd be the Indian Ocean Port).

Iran is no shining light of democracy ,but neither is Zimbabwe.Why don't we want to help the poor people of Zimbabwe?That's right ,they need to find oil first.

The USA is no longer a shining light of democracy.After 911 Bush brought in the Patriot Act which suspends habeous corpus and allows for Presidential orders to by pass Congress.Obama's preventataive dentention makes it legal to keep a suspect in gaol indefinitely with no legal recourse.Obama has now made it legal for the USA to carry out assassinations in and outside of the USA on anyone they deem to be a terrorist.You call that a shining light of demosracy?

No one has addressed the fact of Israel's 200+ nukes which are illegal and the fact that Israel and the USA want to invade Iran under false pretenses.

If you all want an idea of the real power plays in the Middle East see

Gordon Duff says that Iran has the power to close tdown the straights of Hormuz and send the world into a deep depression.Why would Israel want to do this?
