Thanks for telling us about your country. Here in the US, we are told that your country is seeking nuclear weapons and that your government is against us. In 2001, our leaders told us that Iran was a member of an "axis of evil" that included Iraq and North Korea. Could you post a little more about your life, and the freedoms you enjoy in your country? Is Iran really a theocracy? What do the Iranians that you know think about us citizens in america. Not the government here, but the people.

For the most part, I think the people of Iran are good people. The electorate seems to be fairly moderate and fairly progressive. However - you must remember that not too long ago your countrymen took American hostages and held them for quiet some time. Also - your current leader is widely viewed as an extremist and a real danger to the world. Finally there seems to be quiet a bit of evidence that Iran and Syria are funding and providing weaponry for the insurgency in Iraq -- an insurgency that has resulted in 100's of thousands of innocent Iraqi's being killed and 33,000 American service men and women being either killed or injured. Knowing all this I hope you understand how difficult it is for us (Americans) to separate you from your leaders. Politically Iran is a growing threat.

I don't know whether to laugh at your nieavity or cry at you ignorance or be angry at your propaganda. You have a secular government & people are elected to office there, which is true. However, it is the Clerics who actually control how far democracy gos. When the opposition gets too strong, they start attacking dissidents either with the mobs, with prison, or closing down their news outlets.for treasonous activities. I have heard this from Iranians. I am aware that much of what we hear in the US is biased. I am also aware that your democracy was being set up while the Shah was in power when the Ayatollahs seized power. You had then & have now the most modern Muslim society in the world. But your reaol leaders are suspect.

The Bush government has been beating the war drums against Iran for a couple of years. The corporate interests which control the media have gone along with the Bush agenda, and the anti-Israel statements of Ahmadenijad have gotten much attention. Because Ahmadenijad is "president" of Iraq, Americans naturally believe he is a more powerful figure than he actually is, and the government and media do little to dispel this misperception. Many Americans fail to distinguish between hostile, fiery speeches and a true threat such as preparation for an immanent war. Many Americans also do not realize that there is can be a great deal of difference between the national interest of the US and the national interest of Israel. Underneath it all, is the heavy hand of the Israel lobby. The March 06 article by John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt, "The Israel Lobby", provides much insight into the why and wherefore of American attitudes, and it's well worth looking for on the internet. http://www.lrb.co.uk/v28/n06/mear01_.html http://www.scribemedia.org/2006/10/11/israel-lobby/http://www.lrb.co.uk/v28/n06/mear01_.html
