What you think that there is NO RESISTANCE? THey are persian! You missed their websites.

Go and find them. It is rather sad. And if you are for freedom as you say you are...then these types come easy for you.

I am for Persian revolution. And maybe that is what the world does NOT support. Those who are killlled.

Like, who ever heard of Damour? And 8th grade stupid student has no idea where South Africa is, alone who is Gebran Tueni? Right?

And I can list several Islamic thinkers..for freedom...but, that may throw you al off. Can islamic ppl want freedom? No to most. Well, these guys are locked up & being tortuired..so you no need of them on the streets.

I just can figure this one out....but one thing I can say...DONT LEAVE THE DANMN KIDS BEHIND! And I post to let them know...I am one that doesn't.

Just looooook for them...THey do not hate you....again..ppl suffer..not governments!

Please point out where I said there is NO resistance. But it obviously not enough.

Go and find them. It is rather sad. And if you are for freedom as you say you are...then these types come easy for you.

If they want their freedom they have to fight for it. The USA is not going to transform the Islamic world.

The world has been waiting decades for that.

Like, who ever heard of Damour? And 8th grade stupid student has no idea where South Africa is, alone who is Gebran Tueni? Right?

And I can list several Islamic thinkers..for freedom...but, that may throw you al off. Can islamic ppl want freedom? No to most. Well, these guys are locked up & being tortuired..so you no need of them on the streets.

When they get in power let me know. Until then it means very little.

I just can figure this one out....but one thing I can say...DONT LEAVE THE DANMN KIDS BEHIND! And I post to let them know...I am one that doesn't.

Just looooook for them...THey do not hate you....again..ppl suffer..not governments!

There are millions of Iranians who support the Mullahs and hate the USA. Lets stick to reality.

I understand very clearly, I have relatives who fled from there. They are related to the Shah. The video does not change the reality of who is in power.

I don't even feel sorry for the Iranians anymore. The smart ones already live here, or somewhere beyond Iran, and the stupid ones think it will get better and are waiting for things to change. Pity.

WHY IS THE UNITED STATES REACHING OUT TO IRAN?

The United States and Iran have been at odds since the 1979 Islamic revolution toppled the U.S.-backed shah.

Top of U.S. worries about Iran is the suspicion Tehran is using its nuclear energy program as a cover for building an atomic bomb. Washington is also concerned by Tehran's backing for radical Islamist groups such as Hezbollah and Hamas.

But the United States and Iran share common interests in Afghanistan and if they first work on issues where they might be able to agree, they can then build up trust to move on to thornier problems such as the nuclear dispute.

WHAT DO THE TWO SIDES HAVE IN COMMON ON AFGHANISTAN?

The United States and Shi'ite Iran share a common dislike for the hardline Sunni Taliban.

Iran nearly went to war with Taliban-ruled Afghanistan in 1998 and Tehran armed Afghan Northern Alliance factions against the austere Islamist movement. Neither Iran nor the United States want to see the Taliban back in power again.

The United States and Iran also want to see an end to opium and heroin production in Afghanistan; Washington because it helps fund the Taliban and Tehran because the drugs are smuggled across the border and feed the habits of up to 2 million Iranians.

More than 3,500 Iranian security personnel have been killed fighting drug smugglers since Iran's 1979 Islamic revolution.

Both sides have an interest in ensuring a stable Afghanistan.

Trade between Iran and Afghanistan is booming along an Iranian-built road to the western Afghan city of Herat. Afghanistan has just opened an Indian-built road from the Iranian border linking the main Afghan highway to Iranian ports.
