1. it has been a long time I have not written here. life is busy and hectic, that is all I can note!:)
2. yesterday, I saw the word "limit"! then I recalled the advertisement in Canada I used to watch, if I am not mistaken, it was about lottery and was saying: the sky is the limit; i.e. what you can win is so large that it goes as sky!!
Then I started to think why have I been for so long ambitious in my life! I will not simply settle for anything! I have to keep going and get better! It seems that I have to prove something to myself. Is there something wrong with me? I can't hardly stay in a place more than 4 years! If not shorter.
I want to be anywhere and everywhere! I want to learn and learn! I want to find answers to many phenomenon around us! I don't care about finding answers why human has been created! I want to find simple answers to improve our daily life!
I enjoy interaction with cultures and people.
I keep wondering Why I can't settle like many people around me!? Could it be something is wrong with me? could it be that I have no idea what is the ultimate achievement I can obtain? Therefore I keep going? So, as we know sky is the limit! So, when do I hit the limit??! I can keep mumbling, but that does not change the fact that all along my life I have been ambitious. That seems a fact!
I am happy with what I have, I have to admit. Living throughout of my life in many part of worlds and getting paid, more or less, fair amount for decent jobs! Learning and experiences many things has widen my point of view. Should I therefore consider having ambitious is great quality?!
Don't know!
This is something time will show me, I suppose!

A few observations and Questions

1. Past recent days, walking on the streets of Zurich I see many Arab women who are wearing veil (German say, Kopf Tuch) and Islamic uniform. I know they are Arab since they speak in this language, so it is nothing about being biased about one race. (The Turks waering their veil differently). Going back to what has come to my mind: We have been talking about freedom and saying that Islam has given everyone the same right. Considering that is the true statement and IR of Iran claims that they are implementing Islamic (Sharii) law, therefore forcing women to wear veil. Having said that when a foreign women comes to Iran, they are supposed to comply with Iranian law and wear veil. Considering again that is correct act and every individual visiting a country must comply with local law. I wonder how come these veil wearing women do not remove their veils when they come to western countries to comply with local law and people!
2. My Chinese housemate and family for the past few days have only one diet. Chinese Dumplings. You can learn how to make it. Not sure why it smells so strange to my nose. I am biased!
3. Ah, I'd better go do my laundry!
4. My computer doesn't work, and the software I need aren't working either! So, I felt to add this:
In Canada what makes me wonder is about the associations of different ethnicities from same country! It kind of remind me of those "Tekeh and Hosseineh" which belong to many Azari decedents. Hossyneh Zanjani haye moghime markaz!!
having said that in Canada this trend is apparently is getting stronger as well. If I am not mistaken government of Canada should support those association to promote their cultural values and seems that is one the motivations for such activities!
have a look at this:
Association of Khorasani's in Canada
Iranian Association of Ontario
I don't want to look for all but I know there is Azari association, etc.

Almost first time

I have first to congratulate on the achievement of the Iranian basketball team in 2007 Asian games. By winning the final they achieved not only the first place in Asia CUp 2007 but also they found a spot in 2010 Olympic games for first time in 60 years!
I kind of can call myself a basketball expert. I started to play in Iran with a team was called Homa in under 21 Championships. and continue that almost until I left Iran. later I got coaching card and coached a few under 21 teams in Canada. I played with and against many of those generation who in my opinion started what we see today, Ali Safa Kamali, Bahrami mayid, and a few I can't recall their names! and coaches like Reza Shojapour, Abolhasani, etc.
but once again I think this a great team and Mr. Mahshon seems to be on the right track.

Short Story happening in Iran

This story is taken from this link:
It is quite funny and true in Tehran at least!
راند، تا جايي که پنجره جلو دقيقا روبروي دختر جوان قرار گرفت. اين اولين خودرويي نبود
که روبروي دختر توقف مي کرد ، اما هريک از آنهابا بي توجهي دختر جوان ، به راه خود ادامه مي دادند . دختر جوان، مانتوي مشکي تنگي به تن کرده بود که چند انگشتي از يک پيراهن بلند تر بود .شلواري هم که تن دخترک بود ،همچون مانتويش مشکي بود و تنگ مي نمود که آنهم کوتاه بود و تا چند سانتي پايين تر از زانو را مي پوشاند . به نظر مي آمد که شلوار به خودي خود کوتاه نيست و انتهاي ساق آن به داخل تا شده .
دختر جوان نتوانست اهميتي به مزداي قرمز رنگ ندهد . سرش را به داخل پنجره کرد و به راننده گفت :" بفرماييد؟" . مزدا مسافري نداشت . راننده آن پسر جوان و خوش چهره اي بود که عينک دودي ظريفي به چشم داشت . پسر جوان بدون معطلي و با بياني محترمانه گفت : " خوشحال ميشم تا جايي برسونمتون".
دختر جوان گفت : " صادقيه ميرما". پسر جوان بي درنگ سرش را به نشانه تائيد تکان داد و پاسخ داد : " حتماً، بفرماييد بالا ". دخترک با متعجب ساختن پسر جوان، صندلي عقب را براي نشستن انتخاب کرد .چند لحظه اي ازحرکت خودرو نگذشته بود که دختر جوان ، در حالي که روسري کوچک و قرمز خودرا عقب و جلو مي کشيد و موهاي سرازير شده در کنار صورتش را نظم مي داد،گفت :" توي ماشينت چيزي براي گوش کردن نيست "
- البته .
پسر جوان ،سپس پخش خودرو را روشن کرد . صداي ترانه اي انگليسي زبان به گوش رسيد . از آينه به دختر جوان نگاهي انداخت و با همان لبخند ظريفش که از ابتدا بر لب داشت گفت :"کريس دبرگ هست ، حالا خوشتون نمياد عوضش کنم
". دخترک با شنيدن حرف پسرجوان ،خنده تمسخر آميزي سر داد .
- ها ها ها ، اين که اريک کلاپتون . نميشنوي مگه ، انگليسي مي خونه .اصلا کجاش شبيه کريس دبرگ .
- اِه ، من تا الان فکر مي کردم کريس دبرگ . مثل اينکه خيلي خوب اينا رومي شناسيد ها .
دخترک ، قيافه اي به خود گرفت و ادامه داد:" اِي ، کمي "
- پس کسي طرف حسابمه که خيلي موسيقي حاليشه . من موسيقي رو خيلي دوست دارم ، اما الان اونقدر مشغله ذهني دارم که حال و حوصله موسيقي کار کردن رو ازم گرفته .
دخترک لبخندي زيرکانه زد و با لحني کش دار گفت:" اي بابا، بسوزه پدرعاشقي . چي شده ، راضي نميشه ؟"
- نه بابا، من تا حالا عاشق نشده ام . البته کسي رو پيدا نکرده ام که عاشقش بشم ، و اگرنه اگه مورد خوبي پيش بياد ، از عاشقي هم بدم نمياد .
اصل قضيه اينه که، قبل از اينکه با ماشين بزنم بيرون و در خدمت شما باشم، توي خونه با بابام دعوام شد .
- آخي ، سرچي؟ لابد پول بهت نمي ده.
- نه ، تنها چيزي که ميده پول . مشکل اينجاست که فردا دارم مي رم بروکسل،اونوقت اين آقا گير داده بمون توي شرکت کار داريم .
با گفتن اين جملات توسط پسر جوان ، دخترک، با اينکه سعي مي کرد به چهره اش هويدا نشود ، اما کاملا چهره اش دگرگون شد و با لحني کنجکاوانه پرسيد:
" اِه، بروکسل چي کار داري؟ "
- دايي ام چند سالي هست که اونجاست . بعد از سه چهار ماه کار مداوم ، ميخواستم برم اونجا يه استراحتي بکنم؟
دخترک بادي به غبغب انداخت و سريع پاسخ داد:
- اتفاقا من هم يک هفته پيش از اسپانيا برگشتم.
- اِه، شما هم اونجا فاميل داريد؟ کدوم شهر.
- فاميل که نداريم ، براي تفريح رفته بودم ونيز.
پسر جوان نيشخندي زد و گفت : اصلا ولش کن بابا ، اسم قشنگتون چيه؟
- من دايانا هستم. اسم تو چيه، چند سالته؟ چه کاره اي؟
- چه خبره؟ يکي يکي بپرسيد، اين جوري آدم هول ميشه ... اولاً اين که اسم خيلي قشنگي داريد ، يکي از اون معدود اسم هايي که من عاشقشونم . اسم خودم سهيل ، 25 سالمه و پيش بابام که کارگذار بورس کار مي کنم . خوب حالا شما.
دخترک با شنيدن اين حرفهاي سهيل ، چهره اش گلگون شد و به تشويش افتاد .
- من که گفتم ، اسمم داياناست . 23 سالمه و کار هم نمي کنم . خونمون سمت الهيه است و الان هم محض تفريح دارم مي رم صادقيه . تا حالا بوتيک هاي اونجا نرفته ام . با يکي از دوستام اونجا قرار گذاشته ام تا بوتيک هاش روببينيم و اگه چيز قشنگي هم بود بخريم .
- همين چيزايي هم که الان پوشيده ايد خيلي قشنگه ها.
دايانا ، گره کوچک روسريش را باز کرد و بار ديگر گره کرد . سپس گفت:
- اِي ، بد نيست . اما ديگه يک ماهي هست که خريدمشون . خيلي قديمي شده اند ... . ولش کن ، اصلا از خودت بگو ، گفتي موسيقي کار نکرده اي و دوست داري کار کني ، آره؟
- چرا ، تا چند سال پيش يه مدتي پيانو کار مي کردم.
دخترک ، سعي مي کرد دلبرانه سخن وري کند ، اما ناگهان به جوشش افتاد ،طوري که منقطع صحبت مي کرد و کلمات را دستپاچه بيان مي کرد.
-اي واي، من عاشق پيانو ام . خيلي دوست دارم پيانو کار کنم ، يعني يه مدتي هست که کلاسش رو مي رم ، اما هنوز خيلي بلد نيستم . ... اصلااينجوري نميشه، نگه دار بيام جلو بشينم راحت تر حرف بزنيم .
سهيل ، بي درنگ خودرو را متوقف کرد . دايانا هم سريع پياده شد و به صندلي جلو رفت .
-دايانا خانوم ، داريم مي رسيما .
- دايانا خانوم کيه؟ دايانا ... . ولش کن ، فعلا عجله ندارم . بهتره چند دقيقه ديگه هم با هم باشيم . آخه من تازه تو رو پيدا کرده ام . تو که مخالفتي نداري ؟
- نه ، من که اومده بودم حالي عوض کنم . حالا هم کي بهتر از تو که حالم رو عوض کنه . فقط بايد عرض کنم که الان ساعت نه و نيمه ، حواست باشه که ديرت نشه .
دخترک با شنيدن صحبت هاي سهيل، وقتي متوجه ساعت شد، چهره اش رنجور شد ودر حالي که لب خود رابا اضطراب مي گزيد ، گفت:
-آره راست ميگي ... پس حداقل يه چند دقيقه اي ماشينت رو دور فلکه نگه دار، باهات کار دارم .
سهيل ، با قبول کردن حرفهاي دايانا ، حوالي ميدان که رسيد ، خودرو رامتوقف کرد . روي خود را به دخترک کرد و کمرش را به در تکيه داد . عينک دودي را از چشمانش برداشت .چهره اي نسبتا گيرا داشت . ته ريشي به صورتش بود و موهايي ژوليده داشت که تا گوشش را مي پوشانيد . پخش خودرو را خاموش
کرد و سپس با همان لبخندي که بر لب داشت گفت :
- بفرماييد.
ديگر کاملا از ظاهر و طرز صحبت دخترک مي شد پي به هيجانش برد.
- موبايلت ... شماره موبايلت رو بده، البته اگه ممکنه .
پسر جوان لحظه اي فکر کرد و سپس گوشي همراه خود را از روي داشبورد- پشت فرمان برداشت . آن را به سمت دايانا دراز کرد.
- بگير ، زنگ بزن گوشي خودت که هم شماره تو روي موبايلم ثبت بشه و هم شماره من روي موبايل تو بيفته . فقط صبر کن روشنش کنم ... اونقدر اعصابم خورد بود که گوشي رو خاموش کردم .
دايانا ، به محض ديدن گوشي گران قيمت سهيل به وجد آمد . اما سريع شوق خودرا کتمان کرد و فقط به گفتن"گوشي خوبي داري ها" قناعت کرد .
- قابلت رو نداره . اتفاقا بايد عوضش کنم ، خيلي يوغره.
- خوب ، ممنون . فقط بگو کي مي تونيم همديگه رو دوباره ببينيم .
- ببينم چي ميشه . اگه فردا برم بروکسل که هيچ، اما اگه تهران بودم يه کاريش مي کنم . اصلا بهم زنگ بزن
- باشه ... پس من مي رم .فعلا خداحافظ .
- خوشحال شدم،...خداحافظ . ... زنگ يادت نره .
دختر جوان ، درحالي که احساس مسرت مي کرد ، با گامهايي لرزان (از شوق) ازخودرو خارج شد . هر چند قدمي که بر مي داشت ،سرش را برمي گرداند و مزدارا نگاه مي کرد و دستي براي سهيل تکان مي داد . پس از دور شدن دايانا ،سهيل از داخل خودرو پياده شد و طوري که دايانا متوجه نمي شد، او را تعقيب
کرد . حوالي همان ميدان بود که دايانا روي صندلي هاي يک ايستگاه اتوبوسنشست . سهيل ، گوشه اي لابلاي جمعيت در حال گذر ، خود را پنهان کرده بود و دايانا را نظاره مي کرد . دايانا دستش را به ساق شلوار خود انداخت و تايي که از داخل داده بود را باز کرد . شلوارديگر کوتاه نبود . از داخل کيفي که بر روي دوشش بود مقنعه اي بيرون آورد و در لحظه اي کوتاه آنرا سرکرد و از زير مقنعه ، تکه پارچه اي که بر سرش بود ، بيرون کشيد . از داخل همان کيف ، آينه کوچکي خارج کرد و با يک دستمال کوچک ، از آرايش غليظي که
روي صورتش بود کاست . موهاي خرمايي رنگش را که روي صورتش سرازير شده بود، داخل مقنعه کرد و با آمدن اولين اتوبوس ، از محل خارج شد . سهيل در طول ديدن اين صحنه ها ، همچنان لبخند بر لب داشت . با رفتن دايانا، سهيل به سمت مزدا حرکت کرد . به خودرو که نزديک مي شد زنگ موبايلي که همراهش بود، به صدا در آمد. سهيل بلافاصله پاسخ داد:
- بله؟
صداي خواهش هاي پسر جواني از آنسوي گوشي آمد .
- سلام ، آقا هر چي مي خوايي از تو ماشين بردار ، فقط ماشين رو سالم بهم تحويل بده . تو رو خدا ، بگو کجاست بيام ببرم ...
- خوب بابا ، چه خبرته . تا تو باشي و در ماشينت رو براي آب هويج گرفتن باز نزاري ... ببينم به پليس هم زنگ زدي ؟
- نه ، به جون شما نه ، فقط تو رو خدا ماشين رو بده .
- جون من قسم نخور ، من که مي دونم زنگ زده اي ...ولي عيبي نداره ، آدرسمي دم بيا ... فقط يه چيزي ، اين يارويي که سي ديش توي ماشينت بود کي بود؟
- کي ؟ اون خارجيه ؟ ... استينگ بود ، استينگ .
- هه هه ... يه چيز ديگه هم مي پرسم و بعدش آدرس رو مي دم ؛ ونيز توي اسپانياست ؟
- ونيز؟ نه بابا، ونيز که توي ايتالياست ... آقا داري مسخره ام مي کني ،آدرس رو بده ديگه ...
- نه ، داشتم جدول حل مي کردم . مزداي قرمزت ، ضلع جنوبي صادقيه پارک شده. گوشيت رو مي زارم توي ماشين ، ماشين رو هم مي بندم و سوييچ رو مي اندازم توي سطل آشغالي که کنار ماشينته . راستي يه دايانا خانوم هم بهت زنگ مي زنه ، يه دختر خوشگل،... برو حالش رو ببر ، برات مخ هم زدم ،...

Relation of deveoplment and peace of mind!

Today, Iraq crowned their first ever title of Asian cup in a game versus Saudi Arabia. In my opinion the significant of wealthy versus poor is not that important here which many will pay attention to! (Saudis spending millions on their team and coaches and Iraqis didn't spend so much, which I think is not so true since they had a coach from Brazil)
what I feel is important here, is the fact of somebody having a peace of mind, not being afraid of going out of the hotel talking to people and being suspended because of talking to a women or perhaps going to co-ed swimming pool (which Iranian players were kept in their room for that purpose), make a big difference and makes you to work harder and concentrate better. As a result, they got the title. Of course there are many other facts helps them to do so but in my humble opinion the peace of mind was the most important one!
Iraqis despite so much hardship they are having with respect to the security as we have seen on TV and news, they simply out performed every team in Asia and in my opinion their peace of mind was the best gift they are given to achieve this goal.

Humidity vs silence!


1. due to hot and humid weather + lack of interest in politics+ extreme pressure to continue my Phd. Until further notice no writing here, unless I find something quite interesting!
2. Actually, I was rafting last weekend, and that was great! I put couple of photos here! Highly recommended activity! I didn't take the photos, as I am in there. so, the resolution is quite low!

Less scream!
1. Yesterday, it was an interesting day, besides my program wasn't working well. My computer when I boot it in the morning, took 20 min to boot up! In the end, I had to send it to our informatics department!
However, today is another day! first my program works! at least this far. I found center of rotation of a wheel during motion with my program!
and then in the noon, one of co-workers called me in his office and asked me about some modeling issue! He had a client whom they were there for more than 1.5 hours to model some simple coupled gears with one variable mass oscillating on it. It took me 15 minutes to show him, how to do it!!
Simply why? Because now I have better understanding of the software!
This is what frustrating me all along, I have to spend so much time figuring out simple solution to use the software I am using for some simple modeling I wish to do!!
but anyway, I felt at least I could be of help to those guys! They seem happy to see things works after 1.5 hours in the office!
2. Past 3 days was horrible days. I had a meeting with my group. asking them what I shall do! They just looking at me. We have no idea! things I wished wouldn't work!
no one there to help me! So, I was under verg of collapse! but at least I feel little better today! So, drawing a conclusion: there is always tomorrow, don't lose hope.
3. The Chinese lady is very kind and has done couple of nice things. She has clean up our frig and has bought a flower and put it on our table. She has said that the Chinese husband of her is very lazy.
I think that also included me!
you see, I don't say only bad things of people, I also appreciate good things as well.:D

Scream!!!

1. When things doesn't go your way! when you are felling low! when things doesn't work in your project. when there is no one to ask! I see the only way to express myself is scream! time passes by, I scream! the scream turns to laugh! so, am I losing it!!!...
2. The only good sign is that Iran won in Asian football chanmpionship against Uzkbakestan in the first game.
3. The photo above depicts a fellow spider hanging from my window! I have been studying his activities! He appears at night and makes his/her webs all over around him/her to catch meat! then s/he gets disappeared by down! seeing him has become part of my daily routine! I saw him when he was very small and now he has grown in past two weeks!

Bebinid va ...
The above clip does not represent my opinion to advocate monarchy. I like the first 2 min. showing Iranian women could have been Police.
I liked the attire of those police officers.

Me, Myself and Chinese and Women's right!

These days every website you'd browse they are talking about equality of men and women. Every Iranian site promoting gender equality and there is lots of going on about resistance of women in Iran. I think what I am going to write will not be suitable for women, so viewer discretion is advised!:))
This evening I arrived home and witnessed the women favourite job! Yo may wonder which one! what would be better than ... being in Kitchen!:))
I arrived this evening and saw the wife was the entire time to prepare the dinner and wash the dishes in the kitchen and the guy and his daughter were sitting and enjoying quality time!
You see China is advancing, so what is wrong with that!:D
[p.s. this was a joke]
The story of Me, Myself and Chinese housemate!
1. And they are finally here! you may ask whom!? the family of the Chinese housemate of mine! He first time started to clean his room. Every moning he would open the door of his room and you could not stand there, as it seemed there was dead mouse inside!
So, finally he cleaned the rooms and I did help him! but the clean smell did not last long! As His family arrived (wife and 10 years old daughter) I slowly observed, the stonge smell runs in the family!
His wife has bring in millions of Chinese food packages which you wish not to smell!
besides, I realized the small which I always were bothered with in the bathroom is back!
and what is that? the soap they use! The smell soap the wife has already put in the bathroom, reminds me of the worst washing soap that was existing in Iran that was popular to wash their clothing! but apparently, they used it as body shampoo!
She likes to wash the socks and leave them in the half filled plastic basket for a long time!
having said that, her smell seems much stronger than him! while she walks in the apartment. It last for quite sometimes!
anyhow, hopfully, this will not last long!
now, I have written this, I feel I scream that out!
I'd better get back to work, cafe time is finished!

Moon River!!
1. I first received the LP of Andy Williams from my uncle who had a great collection of the 60s LPs while him and my dad were studying in US.
In any case, I felt it would be to listen to that since throughout these years things has changed a lot!
I wished to find a version with Shelly Basie but unsuccessful!
enjoy,
2. The other day, I was thinking being in Switzerland and getting paid from Swiss fund, is not such a great idea. Swiss Banks are famous for accepting any money. Specially from current Iranians who are directly or indirectly involved in Iranian government. Then on the second thought, I thought where does that money has come from ? the answer is from export of Oil from Iran! The money rather than being used in Iran and its development is transfered in Swiss banks!
So, technically talking I am getting paid from money that is made in Iran!!! (just a thought!)
3. It seems I have not much to write, recently. perhaps, I should move from this house to a new one! for every start there is an end!

A real threat!!

One of the worst threat that I am seeing in Iranian diasporas is is dread of Iranians from one another!
For the past 18 years being out of Iran I am seeing the many new comers to western world they have bring in with them those hatred and revulsion that are existing among Iranians in Iran especially between political and intellectual figures, not to mention the ordinary individuals and families.
I have witnessed the wave of first large educated Iranian immigrants in late and early 90s to Canada. Many of those who arrived in Canada in early 90s and earlier were simple and young people who ran from IR and came to make a better world for themselves. They learn from the communities and then they give back.
Later, those who came in late 90s already had money and were educated and influential in their own faction. Since they were seeing that they are now not as important and influential as they used to be, many of them tried anything to become what they were. Those arrived I have seen have promoted their needless rivalry as well as “I am better than you” culture. You hear sentences like: which university have gone to? was it Sharif university of Technology or Tehran university? if there is none of them, "oh you are not worth talking to!"
Those intellectual, on the other hand, came in under big suppression from their own editors or government's biases and felt since they are now free, they should question any activities the other intellectual or journalist is implementing or proceeding.
Let me give examples, A friend of mine who emigrated to Canada in 2000 once invited me to a coffee shop for a drink. While walking on the street of Toronto he greeted many fellow Iranians who were also new immigrants. After each greet he would explanation to me: “ this guy you just saw, he stole about couple of millions and now is here!, he is just smart to forging something! he was bribing everyone and getting his way going!” to my amazement there were so many Iranians who my friend regarded as being "technically talking mentally corrupted" or forging and stealing! but regarded them as quick and smart! Since then I have witness many with that categories.
The journalists: Mr. H. D. who arrived on shore with his ex-wife and now according to him already owns “Canadian passport”, traveling around the world to promote what I call as Libel and slender against his own fellows. at least that can be seen in his webpage!
Engineers: Many rather help the non-Iranians than Iranians when it comes to job hunting and providing correct info.
University Professors: rather than backing one another, they put each other down!
I simply believe this is a big threat and if this way of unhealthy relationship continues among Iranians, I think we shall lose more than what we have lost. Perhaps someone can help to improve these relationships.

why looking for a magic?
Reading Financial Times newspaper, it had an article about the Iranian's student movement and what has happened to it in current time. Basically, concludes that the demand of students and new generation has changed, they need job, freedom of own expression and means to get married! Therefore, no one wants the political freedom as those were asking for fighting for during Khatami erea. As long as those means are materialized new students are happy!
President Ahmadi Nedjad, along side Mr. Ali Larijani the chief Iranian negotiator are in power for past 2 years. I think it is simple to see what is calibre of these leaders in foreign, nuclear, as well as inside of Iran current policies!
1. According to articles of 41 and 42 we are quite close on verge of war.
See here my own writing.
2. last year Iran only made about 50 billions dollar in Oil income. Such money has been injected to the Iranian society economy. This has created about 50% inflation for housing not to mention daily food basket of every family!
3. Iranian banks are and will be under economic sanction. Foreign investment has been the lowest in 10 years in Oil and gas industries (where Iran has largest turn over).
4. Many families more than ever according to Iranian member of parliaments are under poverty line.
5. Iran automotive industries are expanding, the production of Iranian assembled car gone over one million! However, the use of gasoline and benzene is also sky rocketing. We have no new refinery for past 30 years in Iran. and we are spending more than half of our export money to import fuel!
Iranians are losing so much against ability to enrich uranium? Does that worth it? I think generation next will ask today’s generation this question. As we asked our parents about 1979 revolution.
Add to the above, there (is) are Iranian diaspora on this part of world claiming not everything is looking black!
He(they) saying people who are saying that everthing is black and seems going no where are from mafia. And therefore, are promoting these ideas to bring up people of their own interest. "Mr. Ali Larijani with very young and talented group of people is leading well Iranian team of nuclear negotiators with big time confidence..."! and they are doing great!!!
Yes, I would say not for you and perhaps your family members in Iran. But for many Iranians it does looking bad.
I think there was this expression I can’t translate it in English, yek Sozan be khodeton bezanin, yek jealdoz be baghiyeh.

2. last year Iran only made about 50 billions dollar in Oil income. Such money has been injected to the Iranian society economy. This has created about 50% inflation for housing not to mention daily food basket of every family!
3. Iranian banks are and will be under economic sanction. Foreign investment has been the lowest in 10 years in Oil and gas industries (where Iran has largest turn over).
4. Many families more than ever according to Iranian member of parliaments are under poverty line.
5. Iran automotive industries are expanding, the production of Iranian assembled car gone over one million! However, the use of gasoline and benzene is also sky rocketing. We have no new refinery for past 30 years in Iran. and we are spending more than half of our export money to import fuel!
Iranians are losing so much against ability to enrich uranium? Does that worth it? I think generation next will ask today’s generation this question. As we asked our parents about 1979 revolution.
Add to the above, there (is) are Iranian diaspora on this part of world claiming not everything is looking black!
He(they) saying people who are saying that everthing is black and seems going no where are from mafia. And therefore, are promoting these ideas to bring up people of their own interest. "Mr. Ali Larijani with very young and talented group of people is leading well Iranian team of nuclear negotiators with big time confidence..."! and they are doing great!!!
Yes, I would say not for you and perhaps your family members in Iran. But for many Iranians it does looking bad.
I think there was this expression I can’t translate it in English, yek Sozan be khodeton bezanin, yek jealdoz be baghiyeh.
