It's always the MINORITY who spoil it for the MAJORITY!!

Sadly we are a target for these mad mullahs and probably will always be a target until they are wiped out........

And when we in the US defend ourselves we will be called the bad guys.

Only problem with that theory is that if you are not a muslim then you are not like them. They cannot accept you as an equal.
As for the humans species blood being the same color... well yes, it's red.

If these pictures are shocking to people it simply goes to show how ignorant some people truly are.

Always doubt Media!

The first thing I did a few years ago when I heard about US / Iran conflict was research the country, everyone should do the same! They are people like us, we are not separate.

Did you know?
The median age for the population of Iran is 27 years old.
The median age for the population of USA is 37 years old.

That means a large percentage of the population is young.
The only reason for war is $, it is the root cause.

Its not about defending the "free world"
or about Oil, or nuclear weapons etc...

There is no such thing as "Fighting for Freedom". Only you can give yourself freedom. You could be in jail, but be free. Being free resides within your own mind.

Peace

The people of America and Iran have more in common that the media would have us believe. But if we feel we cannot at all relate to the people of Iran, it is easier to be against them isn't it?

The streets of Tehran looked much differently when these ordinary "people", along with all or part of the military, who listened to the Ayatollah Khomeini, overthrew the Shaw in a violent coupe because they were becoming to "westernized."

Then after taking power, he destroyed all of the military equipment that was given to him by The Great Satan, which caused them to become weak enough that they had to send hoards of unarmed teens into mine fields in the war with Iraq.

Ive already known for a long time that parts of Iran were very nice but the former Soviet Union also had/has very beautiful areas, as does China, North Korea, Cuba etc...
That doesnt make them any more or less dangerous, the old saying that you cant judge a book by its cover works both ways.

Or as our Great Leader Nobama put it so eloquently, you can put lipstick on a pig but its still a pig.

The Iranians are getting screwed left and right (from their despots and ours).

Iranians are culturaly NOT islamic. Their Chaldean/Zorastrian/and some Christian.

I've met many "Shah" Iranians that came over here in the 70's. Wonderful people.

It shames me that our country isn't doing more to help them. Had we done something to "square things away" WITH the help of the Iranian folk and used that to pressure Hussein, maybe things would have been easier.


These folks are just pawns between us, russia, and the nwo. I fear that these folks are gonna pay the price for it all. They have been wanting to be free since the s.o.b's took over in the muslim revolution in the 70's. I guarantee that 90% of those people wanted nothing to do with it.

I have friends that swear they think that amadinajihad (or whatever) is a cia plant. I dont doubt it.

sandf dude! damn shame we couldnt sandf the s.o.b's away.

Just goes to show you how how 'brainwashed' people (all of us included) can get from watching what the MSM wants us to see/believe.

Could you imagine just one, factual and logical news reporting for one day - the chaos would be, to say the least highly overwhelming.

But to reply to the OP, those are some beautiful pictures thank you for sharing. I will admit it opened my eyes to their culture in a way I have never perceived it before. We are readily acceptable to listen to all the current horrible news spewing out from the Mid-West that we don't always take the time to take a look for ourselves once in a while, and get our own understanding and our own beliefs (not saying everyone doesn't do this, I'm just saying it's overlooked time and time again from someone or another).

As is typical in most nations and countries, it's Not the peoples, it's the damned governments that foment the issues, hype and media mentions we encounter from day to day.

Otherwise, we're all just folks trying to get by, make a living, enjoy life to it's fullest.


Well said! I wish more people used their minds like this but it seems mush brains are the new intellectuals.

That chic was pretty hot (all the men in here know who I am talking about).

Oh on topic- Yea that chic was hot.

Off topic- There is some beautiful scenery out there. I wish I could visit without having to worry if Im gunna get my head chopped off. The people look like nice people though, like they have been puttin up with #$#$ from their govt. for so long that they developed a peaceful type attitude.

Seeing all this comments i wonder - are americans blindly follow their media or are they blind because many people here didn't know that Iran is beautifull and developed.

You know people had culture before America was even discovered?

So even if you didn't hear about other countries it doesn't mean anything. that country can be more developed and more beautifull that you can't even think of.

But your media controlled by corporations obviously is trying to blacken every country that doesn't follow your goverment and their money interest.

Who says that Iran is evil?
Who says that Iran is trying to make nuclear weapons?
Who says that Iran is threathening to the whole world?

Only media is presenting that kind of view. If you look it independently Iran is only country with a different culture. And who are we to say how should they live. And who gives the right to USA to crap in everybodys backyard?

If Iran sold you oil cheap, i bet they would be your greatest ally on the whole world.

To me Japan is weirder nation then Iran ( eating raw fish, weird porn with crap, suicides, kamikaze's) but i don't think that we should bomb them.

wait... usa already did that twice. google Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 and see what beauty and freedom you bring

Let people live and take your wars with you.

and for those smart comments about nazi Germany i provide you with a link

American Nazi Party

The images of the NYC skyline before the attack are breathtaking also.
Now look at it and maybe take a look at the pics from the day of the attack.
Compare the 2 and see how you feel

Then Egypt made the peace agreement and suddenly the Pyramids were splashed everywhere in the MSM.

I think the answer to making Iran a Pariah state is here:

Gilad Atzmon - Jewish angst needs enemies

Keep getting a backward slash at the end of the youtube url, hence the link

why can the US be a bible hugging country

but iran can't be a quran hugging country?

and before you respond with that "they treat women horribly" or "they execute people for petty crimes" crap... have they done anything that the US hasn't done in its history?

if we iranians wanna look down on our women and cut off a head for being a christian then so be it

we (americans) enslaved an entire race, cut off plenty of heads, enslaved women, and demonized anyone who was different from us. all in the name of god too lol. whites are the superior race remember?

and all of a sudden in the year 2009 we (appear) to have our act together so we need to make everyone else be like us

and seriously... pretty pictures of iran are supposed to SHOCK us? i thought it was gonna be bloody photos and stuff... the only reason you'd be SHOCKED is if your IGNORANT

I miss home! Thank you for the photos, it's so hard at times trying to explain to people how beautiful Iran and it's people are when these religious fanatics are stealing my home!

Don't hate the country and it's people, hate the government they're stealing our home as much as US Government is stealing your home! A bit too late for us, but you still have a chance, free us ALL!

For those who miss the country and others who know little about the diverse beauty of Iran:
