are iranians getting tired of years of living under strict islamic law
want to bereak out of this torturous monotony?
That's common knowledge. I met so many Iranians who are just happy to get out of there.
In every society there is a group of peopel who are not satisfied.. but one has to see majority and how they want to live.. When Iran overwhlmingly overthrew western influences tyrannic rule majority gave the verdict to live inunder Islamic rule.. but there were some who were not happy with thta... now if media western media like to overstate that small group fot their benifit then then it would result in these types of reporting..
Degas, you could not be more wrong. The islamic revolution yielded none of the results that it promised. more than half the population in Iran is under 30. They could care less for the all empty rhetoric of the mullahs. They wan openess, better relations with America and the west and a say in their governance. All good things that islamist gundas can't stomach. This is not a minority. This is the majority.
And ur source of news Matsui? Same that told peopel in Iraq would jump in joy once they be liberated from cruel Sadaam and embrace USA military occupation? How about USA and British role in installing Shah of Iran in first place by over turning democracy in Iran in 50's? The discontent in Iran is overstated due to evil stigma USA has posted and u wholeheartedly believe in that.. its same as saying muslim woman wear hijab due to fear and not respect .. there were news u will remember given to much coverage when Afghanistn was so called liberated of clubs, dances .. same thing happened in Iraq.. where are those people today..
Read a newpaper, read a magazine, watch news and do a little research on Iran. This is not your daddy's Iran. This is a changing country where the people have seen the boons of the ebleovd mullahs int he form of repression and lack of opprotunities and ridiculously bad governance. They want democracy and they wan it now.
I think degas is referring to the Majority group when she says group.

she? r u drunk
in ever country you have pockets of people who are against the government, its policies and laws. that does not mean that they should be left free to create disturbances and affect the lives of others who are ok with the rules and laws. recent uprising in iran is because of USA involvement, which does not justify the actions of these mobs who are protesting in the streets. i'll use fraudia's suggestion of detaining them, torturing them and even killing them to make them realise that what they are doing is wrong and they should know that.
further there is not frustrated generation in iran. those who are frustrated, are backed by USA and that is not a hidden fact. :-)

hskhan, felt the same way about you...
its just western propoganda.....
Iranian people are very open minded and forward looking Muslims.
They are not tired of the Islamic system, actually they themselves embraced it and are proud of it. Some people do however want a change in the Supreme Leader's powers.
Western propaganda as always aimed at maligning Islam.
^ agree..
Most Iranians are proud of their country and laws..
Uhhh nope. Not all. The ones I've met didn't seem very attached to their culture atleast.
u can't judge the whole nation by the deeds of few citizens.....

yup, i said 'most'..
Most Iranis are attached to their culture, but they don't want to live in Iran,, like most Pakistanis who love their culture but dont want to live in Pakistan.
