Rustam And Sohrab From Shahnameh 7/10 - شاهنامه رستم و سهراب

This is the story of “Rustam and Sohrab” from the great Shahnameh (Book of the Kings). The Shahnameh is a poetic epic written by the Persian poet Ferdowsi around 1000 AD. The Shahnameh tells the mythical and historical past of Persia from the creation of the world up until the Arab invasion of Persia. The Shahnameh, written in Persian, has been pivotal for reviving the Persian language subsequent to the influence of Arabic.The Book of the Kings is regarded as a literary masterpiece which reflects Persia’s history, cultural values, its ancient religion, Zoroasterianism, and its profound sense of nationhood. This particular story of Rustam and Sohrab is only one of the many chapters in the Shahnameh. Rustam has always been a hero to Persians as well as other Persian speakers. The Shahnameh is very important, especially nowadays, because contrary to what people think today, it does not represent just the political country of Iran. Instead, the epic covers parts of modern-day Afghanistan, as well as Iran, Tajikistan, and the cities of Samarqand and Bukhara. Though the peoples of these regions are separated against their will by such political borders it can not change the fact that they share the same language, culture and history and, importantly, Rustam is still their hero. The Shahnameh is valued above the Quran and fortunately the Persians are rediscovering their roots and shaking loose from the hold that Arabic had on them. They are realizing just how barbaric the Arabs are and they are moving away from the Arab culture and Islam and going towards their own culture and beliefs. Though there are still Persians who defend the savage acts of the Arabs i.e. forcing their language on the Persians, changing their livelihood, abolishing their legends, etc. These Persians do not realize the errors of their ways and the fact that they are just pawns being used by the Arabs. As the saying goes, “When there is no enemy within, the enemies outside cannot hurt you”. Others work to keep the Persians separated for their own advantage. These legends like Rustam who serve as reminders of the greatness the Persians come from and these books like the Shahnameh that captures the timeless power of a great culture.

re: Iran's Next President
The EU issued a report earlier this year saying that if Iran used all 6000 of its centrifuges at top efficiency (which I will concede is highly unlikely), then it would have enough HEU for a bomb by the end of this year.

Open Question: Do you find that the so-called “news reports” are being dumbed-down at an alarming rate?

Open Question: Do you find that the so-called “news reports” are being dumbed-down at an alarming rate?
In today’s society, Americans know very little about what is going on in their own country; yet, they hear news about Israel, Iran, and “entertainment news” the majority of the time. Lawmakers ought to enact a “Truth in News Reporting” legislation, similar to the “Truth in Adversing” laws passed in the 20th century! Lies and misleading stories on so-called news networks consciously and subconsciously influence how Americans work, shop, spend their free time, among many other aspects of their lives - - misleading stories are far worse than any profanities not allowed by the FCC, and profanities are not protected by the first ammendment as far as the FCC is concerned. If news networks continually fill their reports with propaganda garbage, how are average Americans able to distinguish what is truth and what is a lie, when considering the typical American doesn’t have the financial resources available to determine such well-financed, well-propagated materials?

Open Question: Wouldn’t a rapid US withdrawl from Iraq fit perfectly into Obama’s strategy?
I’m sure Obama has no desire to overtly do what other who moulded his views (Rev Wright, Samantha Powers, etc.) would do because he’s much more polished. Wouldn’t pulling out of Iraq and creating a vacuum into which Islamist Iran will enter to fill the void accomplish exactly what BHO wants? And he keeps a campaign promise, to boot!

Secret war against Iran underway

Secret war against Iran underway

   n an article in the “New Yorker”, Seymour Hersh says that the President got up to 400 million dollars in a “Presidential Finding” and that top democrats were involved. An unidentified source told Hersh:”The Finding was focused on undermining Iran’s nuclear ambitions and trying to undermine the government through regime change.” The funds were requested at the same time that a US National Intelligence Estimate late last year stated that Iran had halted any kind of Nuclear Weapons program they may have had by 2003. Despite the report the Bush administration and many in congress continue to talk about Iran as a nuclear threat. In an interview with CNN, Hersh talked about Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney: “They believe that their mission is to make sure that before they get out of office next year, either Iran is attacked or it stops its weapons program,” As well, a non binding resolution with bipartisan support is moving quickly through the house. The resolution calls on the White House to ban the export to Iran, of refined petroleum or gasoline and for “stringent inspection requirements on all persons, vehicles, ships, planes, trains, and cargo entering or departing Iran,” and would give the President free reign in dealing with Iran including a naval blockade.

Seymour Hersh on ’secret war’ in Iran

   6-30 (CNN) Explosive accusations about America's role in Iran. According to a new article, President Bush and Congress authorized up to 400-million dollars for special and covert operations in Iran. The New Yorker's Seymour Hersh writes the plan includes seizing members of Iran's special commando forces, then taking them to Iraq for interrogation. It's an effort Hersh says to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.

It?s later than you think

   Israel is threatening to attack Iran’s nuclear sites. This may not be a bluffWITH oil prices at their present highs and Iraq at last making tentative progress towards stability, the last thing anyone wants to hear is that conditions in the Middle East could be about to take an abrupt turn for the worse. Unfortunately, they could. Recent weeks have brought a spike in chatter about the prospect of an Israeli military strike on Iran’s nuclear installations. Israel has conducted ostentatious long-range air exercises over the Mediterranean, and one former chief of staff has called an attack inevitable if Iran continues its nuclear work. This noise might be just a bluff designed to signal to Iran that it would be wise to stop enriching uranium, as the United Nations Security Council ordered it to a full two years ago. Then again, it might not. Until recently, fears of an Israeli or American attack on Iran had been receding. The prospect of an American strike diminished after America’s intelligence services published their inconvenient finding last December that Iran had stopped trying to design a nuclear weapon in 2003. At the same time, diplomats have been able to point to the sort of progress diplomats point to: a series of Security Council resolutions, supported by Russia and China as well as the West, telling Iran to stop its uranium-enriching centrifuges. Sanctions have been applied as well: in the latest, the European Union decided this week to freeze the assets of Iran’s biggest bank, Bank Melli. Slowly but surely, you might conclude, the normal tools of diplomacy are being brought to bear, removing the need for anything worse. Besides, in November Americans may elect Barack Obama as president. Doesn’t he promise to sort out Iran by means of direct talks at the highest level, a necessary step that George Bush could never quite bring himself to take? …
