Amikar, The "Democracy" that we have here is something that what Persians/Iranians say it is: It is "Dameé-Cos-Raazi" which sounds almost like the word Democracy. Now let us see what "Dame-Cos-Raazy" means. In order to get the concept in it, I have to break the word and tell what each component means in Persian/Farsi language: " Dameé-Cos-Raazi " is comprized of three parts: 1. Dameé = at he edge of/at he shore of 2. Cos = Vulva -- female genitalia which if you are artist and know gross anatomy of it, it looks like a fissure/slot if you like a narrow lake which has shores 3. Razzy = being happy and content Now if fast-you read all the three componets together, " Dameé-Cos-Raazi " (which sounds something similar to when you read the word " Democracy ") is what we have here and in Europe in which the inhabitant are , if you will, happy with sex. Imagine the "Dameé-Cos-Raazi" (which means "being happy at the shore of the vulva) like this: Now draw a lake in the shape of vulva with two shores on each side with smiling people resting under paraplui/umberllas on each shore of the lake. That's it. That's what our DEMOCRACY means. C'est tout. Voilà We do NOT have a government of people (made by people and for people). Now laugh by saying we have "Dameé-Cos-Raazi" Murray | 07.12.07 - 11:41 pm | # **************** Lieberman: Iran Has Declared War -- Courant.com My Comment on it: Carrot and Stick Policy; seepage from retarded savage minds Dr. Murray M. Morgan July 06,2007 All these in concert rhetorical repetitions of "Islamist terrorism", are part of psychological warfare against the peaceful Iran. Let us be frank with ourselves, we did not have any problem with nuclear Iran during Shah's time. Now that Iran aspires independence, we have problem with it! All these hoopla is to pressure Iran into recognizing Israel as a LEGITIMATE country: I am 100% sure that we would not have had this unreasonable animosity against Iran and that we would not have had blocked her assets and blocked trade with Iran if Iran, after that beautiful revolution of her against Shah, had not retracted/withdrew her recognition of the State of Israel, that according to a real Jew, is established by the Thirteenth Tribe!! -- By Khazaries who several centuries ago were not Jewish at all who used to live by the shores of northern Caspian Sea (aka: Daryaa-yeh Khazar). According to history, Khazaries had been accustomed to a PARASITIC WAY OF LIFE --invading into surrounding countries and southward, in Iran, to steal goods and take slaves; more or less resembling these daysâ?? behavior of Israel. Isn't as such? An apartheid State? This real Jew says the Bani-Israel was comprised of 12 tribes and to mock the Khazary-"Jew"s (the founders of Israel), he calls them/categorizes them as the "Thirteenth Tribe" which did not exist at all. For the Israel, It is a matter of utmost important to be recognized as a legitimate STATE/COUNTRY by Iran/Persia; more important and satisfying than their recognition by us (the USA). The reason being that it was the King Cyrus the Great of Iran/Persia who gave shelter to the OPPRESSED Jews close to 2600 years ago. It is, therefore, very painful for Israel as being viewed by Iranians as OPPRESSORS and denied recognition as a legitimate STATE/COUNTRY by them. President Truman immediately before he announces that he/USA recognizes Israel, reportedly has said that "by this recognition I might be remembered to the same degree that the Great Iranian/Persian King, Cyrus The Great, is revered/remembered by Jewish people for his having had given their ancestors shelter in Iran"; not knowing that it is Khazaries "Jew"s who(in accordance with their habitual parasitic way of life) on false pretences are establishing a troublesome country out of invasion and occupation of others' people land. President Truman would, probably, had not recognized Israel if he knew who the Khazary-"Jew"s were. The highly respected Secretary of State, George Marshall, advised President Truman against recognition of Israel and we see how right he had been. I am sure that if Cyrus the Great was alive, he would abhor what has-been/is going on in that part of his Kingdom; the Palestine. Boycotting and withdrawing recognition of Israel: It would be very responsible to: 1. all the real Jewish people in Israel who were not living in there before 1940 return to where they used to live because, if they are a believer in God and the JUSTICE God would uphold on the Judgment Day, they would find it very stupid to exchange ones conscience, dignity and inflict pain and sense of injustice on others just to amass/accumulate power and things (beyond our need) that no one would be able to take with into the other world. And 2. All the countries of the world to boycott Israel and withdraw their recognition of Israel as a legitimate State. The reason is that Israel was found on false pretences and on exploitation of the sense of guilt due to the horrible Holocaust. It is very well known to Iranians that if they recognize Israel, all these manufactured-crisis (looming-danger from "irrational" atomic-Iran) would subside very fast. Senator Lieberman has, recently, hinted (threatened) that he might switch his Party-affiliation if Democrats insist on phased withdrawal of our troops from Iraq. Senator's pro-Israel stance is pretty obvious to every one in Connecticut where he, recently, after his advocacating military attack (bombardments) against Iran, was told that he, no longer, represents the Independent voters of Connecticut. It seems that all these orchestrated false denied charges against Iran (that Iran is stoking violence in Iraq/Afghanistan/Lebanon against our troops and Israel security), are being repeated as execution of a psychological pressuring tactic (stick) that seems to have had been planned/thought of in that "for-democracy-promotion" Conference that was held in Prague last month; the attendees of which were President Bush, Senator Lieberman, Richard Perl/some other Neo-Cons, and few chewed-up/rejected(by Iranians) pro-expelled-Shah individuals who all reside outside of Iran that wag their burned tails in the hope that we might consider to use them as an "Ahmed Chalaby" in Iran. They do not know that, even, we have noticed that they are very few useless and phony individuals who are hated in Iran and, thusly, are not able of accomplishing anything. Iranians tend to rally around their hated government when they perceive an outside threat against their country. So if we really want people of Iran to rise against their government, we should not threaten Iran in any shape or manner. In fact we have to lift our entire pirating blockade and all the unlawful slapped sanctions against Iran. It is the absence of any sort of outside threat, that would permit people of Iran to, once again, rise against their hated government to change and replace it with a government that would hopefully be a by-people and for-people government; a government that would abolish Velayat-e-Faghih, respects the responsible-freedom (that according to Koran is inherent right of people) and returns the right of self-governance back to the people of Iran. ***************** Are We Civilized? Dear Speaker Peloci, Hallmark of being (civilized) a member of CIVILIZED WORLD is JUST/EQUAL/with-respect TREATMENT of others. I would like to see people who dare to talk to power, to hear/demand truth from their government, and see that the President , Congress, Judiciary system and Press/Media are FRANK (with us to ADVANCE our WILL on our behalf), and held accountable for their actions. I am puzzled by nobody daring to tell President Bush that: "1. Hallmark of being (civilized) a member of CIVILIZED WORLD is JUST/EQUAL/with-respect TREATMENT of others. 2. You were picked (by George Shultz et al) to run for Presidency (to execute Wolfowitz et al hegemonic doctrine) because you were: A. in need of impressing your parents and siblings (who had, always, looked down at you), and B. that your urge/motive to punish Saddam was so strong that you were willing to do whatever you were/are asked to render realization to it. You were so, uncontrollably, OBSSESSED to RETALIATE against the audacity/daring of Saddam who: 1) had put a HUGE image of your father (for the purpose of humiliation) in the WALKWAY of one of the buildings in Baghdad (CBS showed it), and 2) had attempted to assassinate your father. It was shown on TV screens (as then candidate) Bush, after having had seen the image of his father in the walkway, saying that, I quote it (from my memory): "I would FINISH what my father did not do (failed to do) during the 1991 operation in Iraq ". I remind you of what Richard Clark said on TV. He said that President Bush in numerous occasions had told him to find something against Saddam even before the 9/11 manufactured incidence (like Pearl Harbor â?? that was used for our country to join the World War II). Please tell President Bush: "YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN AT ALL. YOU ARE SOMEBODY WITH HATE. A CHRISTIAN IS TAUGHT TO FORGIVE. " Tell him: 1. to forget the BS of Aristotle (repeated by Hegel and Montesquieu) that WEST is CIVILIZED and Easterners, American Indians and Black are savages (Alexander the Great [Savage\ in a letter has writtenâ?¦ Aristotle this Kiss Ass friend of mine tells me these entire BS so that I [without any mercy\ commit every atrocity imaginable to control the places that I have conquered). Here is the advice of Aristotle repeated by Hegel and Montesquieu:â??â?¦that the soul started in the wild emotional East and it developed and became CIVILIZED during its path to West WHEREIN it found its HOME and therefore we the CIVILIZED West should treat ourselves as EQUALS with Respect and law but we CAN do whatever we want to do on the emotional-wild-Easterners because whatever we do is better than the situation they are in AND that Iran had shown the potential to become CICILIZED like us but they failed during the process because wherever they went they treated people with mercy and respect. Tell President Bush that Iran is the MOST CIVILIZED nation in the world. It had given us the pioneers in Medicine (whose Books were our textbook until 18th century), basic science (Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Astronomy), philosophy, arts & sciences, literature (who were the mentors of our famous literary giants such as Goethe, â?¦ one of whom had wished as such:â?? World would have been in a better shape if Persians/Iranians had been the rulers of Rome because they always had been kind and just wherever they had gone. By the way shame on the producer of movie 300-Spartans; Xerecsus was/ had been a fair King. In the movie, portraying Iranians/Persians as savages, it says that Persians are COWARDS because they THROW ARROWS from afar over the 300!!!Spartan fighters. This reminded me of us having had been truly the COWARDS of all times because we launch cruise missiles from thousands of miles and kill people using unmanned aero planes/fighters/helicopters and explode chemical weapons on the people we unfairly engage and impose war on them to accept what we ask them to do. A fair mind (like that of mine) finds the ULTIMATE outrageousness in the immediately below-pasted quote from the mesmerized by power-Nicholas Burns, our under secretary of state for political affairs: â??Iran is a country that for the United States has been one of abiding concern for the better part of 30 yearsâ??. Who the hell we think we are to bring other nations into submission? That is coercing them to submit to unjust hegemonic bullying demands of ours? Such attitude towards others foments/provokes anger and instability. Then we complain against so called terrorism? People are demanding JUST treatment of Iran and others. The first thing that brings about peace is JUST/EQUAL and with respect treatment of others. We claim to be a CIVILIZED nation. JUST/EQUAL and with respect treatment of others is the hallmarks of a "civilized nation". Hegemonic attitude of ours has made us the Third HATED nation in the world; Israel having had won the First rank and our propaganda machine/censored/ biased PRESS and MEDIA have fabricated/caused an unjust view of Iran in the mind of so called CIVILIZED world. Iran does NOT intend to build atomic bomb. Please stop pressuring Iran. Please stop bullying Iran. Please stop abusing Security Counsel. Please stop stoking unrest in Iran. Spend the fund to advance honorable causes. Stop interfering in the INTERNAL affairs of Iran. Let them, themselves, sort out the problems that they have with their rough government. Put yourself in their shoes to find out if we, for even a second, would accept such humiliating attitudes towards us? Treat others as EQUALS then all the security of flow of oil to the West that we want would be assured. The COLONIALISM era is over. Uncontrollable greedy corporative profit-making should be brought under control. These stupid cruel bottom-line-looking greedy individuals/corporations know that they will not be able to take what they make so unfairly to grave. Fighting with greed is the real fight with terrorism. Leave people alone. Leave their waters and the vicinity of international waters. Evacuate all the bullying military bases around them and around the world. Stop the hegemony of military Industrial Complex then you will notice that terrorism stops. (Listen to President Eisenhower: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8...h? v=8y06NSBBRtY ). Let us get ourselves out of the stupid inferiority/superiority complex. We are NOT the boss/landlord/owner of the world. Declaration of Human Right becomes meaningless/sounds hollow when we and the other four countries have the VETO power and Permanent seat in the Security Counsel. To the Media and Press: You are supposed to be eye and ears of public to protect the Constitution. How come is it that you do not report the real important news pieces such as this one: the during the visit of President Khatami (former President of Iran) with Pope Benedict VI, Pope has said that Iran has had been a peaceful country and that it has the full right to its peaceful nuclear program (that we are trying to deprive them of)? Do your job for God sake; be eye and ears of people. Stop from being the loudspeaker for the government. Have the BALL to write/report the truthful pieces of important news. Journalists are supposed to take risks and be ready to loose their job for the cause of INFORMING people. Please do your job honorably. Do not lecture them. Tell them the truth. Not reporting the truth is the worst type of lying through omission [of facts\. One nice quotes: "If once [the people\ become inattentive to the public affairs, you and I, and Congress and Assemblies, Judges and Governors, shall all become wolves. It seems to be the law of our general nature, in spite of individual exceptions." -- Thomas Jefferson to Edward Carrington, 1787

http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article18005.htm U.S. Soldier Tell Of Rape and Suicide of 15 Year Old Iraqi Girl The underlying contributing background/reason for it. http://www.pbs.org/moyers/journal/blog/2007/06/wheres_the_party_1.html#comment-19195 Strange times are these in which we live when old and young are taught in falsehoods school. And the one man that dares to tell the truth is called at once a lunatic and fool" -- Plato. You see, we FIRST dehumanize (by propagandist West media and Press) the ones we want to infringe on their rights to, when we do it, nobody dares to raise objection against our treatment of the victim. Let us stop teaching our children, at schools and Universities, the nonsense racist stuff/philosophy of Aristotle (repeated by Hegel, and Montesquieu several centuries later) who has made up his nonsense/racist story / philosophy saying that the East is wild/emotional/savage and West is "civilized" -- "soul started from emotional, irrational, wild East and during its voyage towards West it gradually developed/matured until it arrived in West [its final destination/home\ completely "Civilized". According to a letter from Alexander the Great [sauvage vous voulez dire\ -- read the Les Grecs ET les Barbares series books -- Alexander says, "Leave this kiss-ass friend of mine (Aristotle he means) to me. Oh, how manipulating and viciously smart he is. He writes these things to me as a mean to justify my invasions and exploitations". Hegel, several centuries later, repeats the same nonsense and by saying the followings justifies the Europeans/West's treatment of American Indians, Blacks, Africans, and Asians; no matter how barbarically ruining exploiting it is. No wonder nobody in here and Europe raised his/her voice against the last summer barbaric invasion of Israel into Lebanon; because the Lebanese were considered NOT civilized. Hegel says: �� We the "civilized" Westerners have to treat ourselves equally with equal treatment of each other, and respect each others' rights and boundaries. But when it comes to the non-Europeans, we do not have to do the same because "whatever we do to them is better than the situation they are in"� The author of the �Les Grecs ET les Barbares�, by quoting from what the biased (in favor of Greeks/Romans) ancient Greek/Roman �Philosopher�s/�Historians� have written, demonstrates to the reader how they (compared with their own way of life) had been impressed by the more advanced culture and way of life of Iranians (see its evidence in the British Museum). He (the author) concludes that, if looked more profoundly and without prejudice, one would notice/find out about the enormous influence and life-improving impression/impact of Iranians� way of life (culture,) onto the Greeks/Romans culture. One famous Western literary giant has wished as such:� World would have been in a better shape if Persians/Iranians had been the rulers of Rome because they always had been kind and just wherever they had gone". By the way, do you know that it is Iranians who invented pants? It is Siaah-Jaamegaan of Khorasan (with the leadership of Abu Moslem e Khoraa-ssaani -- the one who toppled Al Motassam)who for the ease of riding on horse, invented pants that later on was adapted by Europeans as an alternative to skirts. "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free.": Johann Wolfgang von Goethe - (1749-1832) Power always has to be kept in check; power exercised in secret, especially under the cloak of national security, is doubly dangerous : William Proxmire As long as the world shall last there will be wrongs, and if no man objected and no man rebelled, those wrongs would last forever: Clarence Darrow If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality: Bishop Desmond Tutu = Carrot and Stick Policy Seepage from savage uncivilized retarded dog-minded mentalities Let us not project our dog-mentality onto others. Being in Iranian�s shoes, would we tolerate such an insult? If we were faced with such humiliating bullying attitude, we would, for certain, be telling the bully to shove both of them; that is both the carrot and the stick. Is this equal treatment of others? Anybody and any country, with the least amount of pride and independence would reject such outrageous rights-denying (self-determination right) attitude. It baffles me hearing such stupid tactic as a foreign policy mean to persuade Iran to give in into our unfair, rights-denying, and unlawful bullying demand. And we wonder why Iran, so rightfully, resist giving in into our unlawful and rights-denying demand. United Nation Security Council (UNSC) has, politically and unlawfully by meddling into the internal affairs of Iran, has slapped two rounds of unlawful coercing rights-denying restricting sanction measures against Iran. These unlawful acts by the UNSC against the most civilized and peaceful country in the world (read the history and the Les Grecs et les Barbares series books) has happened while IAEA, after several years of rigorous intruding inspections (we would not have had tolerated a second of it), has said times and time again that Iran's nuclear program has been within the framework of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and it (IAEA) has not been able to say that Iran's nuclear program has deviated from the NPT into a weaponized program. Of course, when something does not exist, you can not find something that can prove it exists. Iranians, rightfully, say that "civilized" West wants to deny East advance and scientific progress. It is up to Iranians to decide whether or not their nuclear program is cost effective and ultimately beneficial to them. This is their internal affairs and their own decisions. Specially, when we renew our nuclear bombs stock-pile, we have no business to deny them their peaceful nuclear program. It is us that threaten to bomb their peaceful nuclear facilities with our modernized/miniaturized atomic bombs not them. It is us, the ONLY country that USED atomic bombs on Japanese (the dehemumanized "Japs"; the emotional/irrational non-"civilized� Easterners. Let us be frank with ourselves, we did not have any problem with nuclear Iran during Shah's time. Now that Iran aspires independence, we have problem with it! We keep saying that Iran has lost its right to have her own peaceful nuclear fuel cycle program/facility because they kept their program hidden from IAEA for more than 20 years. First, Iranians deny this false charge. They say that they have complied with the required rules and that they had reported to IAEA at the same level and manner that other countries had been reporting of such similar facilities in their countries to IAEA. Second, where does this rule come from? Third, have we been telling IAEA of every detail of our programs and of renewal/upgrading of our deadly nuclear warhead stock-piles which; all of them being illegal if the IAEA rules and safeguards where to be applied equally to us as well. I guess because we consider ourselves "civilized" blue-blooded one, the rules does not apply to us. Fourth, Let us assume for a moment that this propagandized charge [that Iranians kept their program secret for more than 20 years\ is true, would we had allowed Iran to advance this far in their peaceful nuclear program if they had let IAEA know of their program beyond the level that is required/spelled out in the IAEA rules? We would be the guilty number one because we had been doing all sorts illegal things in secret such as renewing/upgrading our atomic bombs (that we have promised to get rid of) to more deadly weapons without giving a damn hoopla to IAEA rules. It would be barbaric to slap another round of illegal/rights-denying restricting sanctions on Iran. Any proud individual/nation would not give in to pressure (Carrot and Stick) tactic. If we consider our mentality is that of a dog mentality, let us not project it onto others.
