Non-Iranian Shias Get Ready To Populate Iran
Mousa54321 replied to Waiting for HIM's topic in Politics/Current Events
This is a catastrophic situation that Iran finds itself in. I have been doing much research on fertility in the Middle East (as demography and development is my master degree). Iran in the late 1980s had over triple the population of Iraq, now it has only double. This is a very quick decline if compared with Iraq. The same thing can be said about Saudi Arabia which its relative size to Iran has grow considerably in the past two decades. On the other hand, Egypt ,which has historically had similar population to Iran, today outnumbers Iran by 10 million and the gap is growing fast. The -

If Only Assad Had Listened To The Protesters
Mousa54321 replied to Muslim2014's topic in Politics/Current Events
The protestors were peaceful for over 6months and it started as a normal Arab Spring revolution. But Assad decided to start shooting. Even Nasrallah said that in the beginning there was a true revolution before it was "hijacked" but the extremist, which is apparently why the Hizb is killing Syrians at the moment. -
Old Iranian Embassy In Dc Once A House Of Hedonism
Mousa54321 replied to baradar_jackson's topic in Politics/Current Events
I am not "yammering" about something I don't know. Iran economically was much better back then than it is today. The country had an open system of trade, the population was rapidly modernising (health-care, education, etc...) and the industrial base was constructed. The lack of urbanisation you mentioned is typical and is normal for a developing country in the 1970s. No economist or a development specialist would tell you that Iran economy before the revolution was worst than the economy after the revolution. As the devastating war with Iraq has heavily damaged Iran's infrastructure and have l -
Israel Prefers Assad Over Islamists In Syria
Mousa54321 replied to Kianofum's topic in Politics/Current Events
Obviously Israel would prefer Assad. The Syrian-Israeli borders have been quiet and safe for over 40 years! Not a single bullet fired by the regime in Syria even when they are bomb by Israel. So much for their "resistance" They are only good at killing their own people. -

Iran was not a starving country in the 1970s. The much lower number of people in Iran in the 1970s and the oil boom has ensured a decent standard for Iranians. The cause of the revolution was not about the economic situation. The poor, especially in cities, suffer more under sanctions today than they did in the 1970s. -
A Sunni Is Elected Mayor Of Town In Iran
Mousa54321 replied to baradar_jackson's topic in Politics/Current Events
Teaching Quran or Arabic as a second language is not the point. The point is teaching Arabs in their own languages! All classes. Not impose Persian on them and prevent them from getting their full education in Arabic or Kurdish for Kurds etc. You picture Iran as a country where everyone has equal rights! Can you please show me one university that teaches secular majors in languages other than Persian? Don't tell me you could study Quran in Arabic or religious studies. I am talking about secular topics that Arabs, Kurds and others can study in their own languages. This is not possible an -
A Sunni Is Elected Mayor Of Town In Iran
Mousa54321 replied to baradar_jackson's topic in Politics/Current Events
I see, do Kurds learn in their language too? Arabs and Iranians learn Arabic as a second language with very few class. Arabs in Iran demand to learn all courses in their own language, the language of Quran. But the state refuses such a thing. Kurds in Iran are also not taught their language in schools. Persians is forced upon them. This is an example of Iran closing down a private institution of learning Kurdish just weeks after it was opened! http://rudaw.net/english/middleeast/iran/16092013 Iran is a country where non-Persian Arabs, Kurds and Baluch are heavily discriminated against i -

India, Canada, US..etc all those countries that allow people to learn the language they want lack solidarity? Iranian Arabs HATE Persian oppression and many of them get executed for fighting against the Persian regime in Ahwaz! Those Arabs are Shias, not Sunni. -

Mousa54321 replied to baradar_jackson's topic in Politics/Current Events
She's from a majority Sunni area. Shura councils of Bahrain and Saudi do have Shia members. Iran doesn't only heavily discriminates against Sunnis, it also discriminates against Shia Arabs and denies them the right to be taught in their mother tongue! -
Iran did give too much. The most important part of the deal was the ability to enrich uranium, which Iran has lost hundreds of billions of losses due to sanctions in order to obtain the ability to enrich uranium at its current levels. It was shocking to see Iran give up enriching uranium at above 5% this quickly. What they got in return was nothing compared to what was lost in 2013 alone. The 9 billion dollar is Iran's money, it is not a "reward". Iranian officials have also invited American/Western oil companies to invest in Iran with attractive returns and opportunities. Why suffer un

No one is talking about infants or suicide bombers. No need to stray off topic. But if this is justifiable and even a good thing to beat up a man like that. Then I have no idea why people complain when a few Shias are beating up for insulting the Sahabah.
-
Having a problem understanding what I said? In other threads people are very critical when a Shia get beaten up for insulting the Sahabah in a overwhelmingly Sunni countries. But now taking down posters is more than enough reason to gang up on him and beat him up? In fact it is a good thing!
-
Gang beating someone for tearing down posters is okay. In fact it is good even when he's a foreign to the culture/religion. But when a crowd beat up someone who insults sacred figures of Sunnis in overwhelmingly Sunni countries they are animals and so unlike the Shias? Makes sense.
