That's so brave of y'all to even travel to Iran and try to get their view, I looked at this one vlog by a Lithuanian blogger and Iran ofc isn't as bad as social media posts it(Ik ofc that Iran isn't bad) it really helps People to see that the media isn't always right or accurate(exept about north Korea)
Most Iranians are afraid to talk. We in the usa do not like trump but because Soleimani was in Iraq he had every right to take him out. trump started all this when he backed out of treaty. We are trying to get trump out in 2020 election
@@thinkabout602 Gen Soleimani assassination could be viewed as a symbolic provocation, a so-called "trophy killing" for some leaders in USA or some other war crime. Iran neighbors, not only Iraq, often invite and even pay for Iran's official military presence on their neighboring territory and it is their right to do so. Gen Soleimani was a *state guest* of Iraq's government, walking at the airport having a conversation and he was not engaged in active combat at that time. Commander Soleiman was also the one who released USA solders without any harm and well fed after they were found prowling Persian Golf waters armed with military equipment and surveillance tools.. in Iranian waters.
in addition... act of killing a strategist (who was previously unsuccessfully targeted by Israel)... does not guarantee that such strategy will be phased out now by any of the IRGC..
Oh yeah, I bet they're working on that right now. Or... TRYING to at least. Maybe they'll get something once the tensions lessen a little, but I don't think that'll happen. In fact, they might not do it at all for the safety of their reporters.
There’s an insane duality inside Iran, the same people who oppose the US and UK government for so many of its past atrocities and deceptive coercive attempts to install a western government share a similar hatred for their current governments actions in regards to its treatment towards minorities, financial hardships, lack of access to liberty and etc. Which ever side is able to pander to the hearts and minds of the people will ultimately prevail, and who that may be?? No one knows. So they’re literally stuck between two worlds. (Source: I am from Tabriz, Iran)
It's okay. You'll be surprised at how many people from different countries have a loathing both for the US/UK governments and their own governments. This is true especially for countries without real governance options.
I think it's mostly caused by corruption and the difference between rich and poor. I've heard that Iran's upper class lives in extraordinarily luxurious lives, although most Iranian citizens suffer from poverty. This sounds similar to the situation in North Korea. And this situation, paradoxically, supports the dictatorship.
UK? lol they are just a lapdog of the US, together with France, Germany and NATO. Stop putting UK in the same category as America. England is just a nothing country, and always has been. NATO and EU countries just do what the US orders them.
The Iranian commoners and US commoners have more in common with each other, than they each have with the leaders of their respective countries, I believe, and I also believe this to be the case in almost all countries.
definitely. the people on the streets are just regular people everywhere. their leaders should meet somewhere and battle it out between themselves and not involve everyone in their stupid fights. people should think about it and not get involved in anything military or war related. this will all continue as long as people play along.

I would like to commend Asian Boss for always doing their best to cover issues and not limiting it to East Asia. Even though their reach is limited, they worked within their limits to create content that can give us insight outside of TV/media (that may possibly already have some bias). I find myself getting interested with the culture and history of the Middle East and Iran lately, and I appreciate this video so much. Keep up the good work!
The bald guy's the views (the one speaking in Persian) line up perfectly with mine. The media a very powerful weapon that can (and _is_ ) being used to distort certain truths to manipulate how people think. And people in general need to be more open minded about that and not just take everything they hear as "fact"; it is dangerous to do so. That being said, my personal take on the whole Iran-American ordeal is that we (Americans) are the bad guys in this - we're the ones (or at least the Trump administration) who are trying to distort facts in order to justify our actions against Iran. All this just for control over the resources in that region. It's downright disgusting.
Much prayer to Iran, Iran ppl are nice . worked for them 25 yrs they help me alot thier food omg awesome. Children don't desrve this. Hope everything goes well , 💝
lets also ignore the fact that the only reason the embassy was attacked in the first place was because of the US airstrikes against Iraq and Syria killing at least 25 people
Thank you for this video. Appreciate that you traveled to Iran and tried your best to learn about Iranians' perspectives. Interesting to hear the thoughtful comments made by Iranians in Korea. I hope you will continue to include more Iranian and West Asian content.
Yeah government is trash freedom is taken away and people are sick of it but look who has the power in hand people or government... Hope these fuckers leave our country alone
I hope you guys can conduct more interviews focused on west Asian topics because this was interesting and I think people forget the middle east is in Asia lol.
@not gonna - I'm not trynna start something here but how are you gonna generalize the whole area as authoritarian. As if China isn't also out here with gait recognition, censorship, and concentration camps. people go back to visit their countries all the time without issues so the interviewers should be able to conduct interviews. with little issues. Iran, however, is having some problems right now so they probably couldn't do so at the moment. But they could go to Jordan, turkey, Lebanon, Qatar, etc. and within those countries, they can find individuals from surrounding middle eastern countries they cannot visit such as Palestine and Syria- a method they employed here. All I'm saying is I want middle easterners to speak- not be spoken about.
5:57 Same thing is happening right now here in Iraq :( ever since October first the government blocked the internet for a whole month and murdered and kidnapped the journalists who tried to expose them to the world . And what was Iranian snipers killed 20 unarmed students and citizens who were protesting against the fcn Iraqi government , what's killing me is that the snipers were *Iranians* who were ordered by their higher-ups to murdered unarmed young protesters :( *we are struggling to live here in Iraq and then fcn Trump throws bombs in my town Baghdad which caused to block the roads and make us unable to go to our Universities and schools in peace* !! I hate all of u , those poor souls that got wasted in your games are in a better place but that's still not fair...
isnt trump helping if hes killing people that are ruining the government and its people? im so confused? isnt trump killing the people who took your internet?
@@Mokawoo I thought the same thing but ultimately decided for well wishes instead of trying to change someone's mind, didn't seem worth it, but it's the first I heard of it also.
the one thing totally going over my head is the threat of distroying cultural heritage sites. losing cultural heritage sites is not only a loss for iran, it is a loss for the whole world! i have not been to iran yet, but i feel like i dont want to lose cultural heritage sites anywhere in the world! wtf is wrong with people. cant they just breath and think.
problem is that in these countries people get half information. Iran uses terrorist groups are proxy war armies. Same thing is done Saudi Arabia and Turkey. However US only punishes Iran becoz it suit them and Iranian are not allies of USA. on other hand Saudis and Turkey are yes boss countries of USA. Nothing wrong in it. It is called diplomacy. Second thing countries should only look into their interest. however Iran too is deeply interested in Israel , Iraq and Lebanon with any significant advantage other than influence. if they iranian leaders would just have looked into their own interest situation much different. In current scenario there is very good chance of US and Iran being back on track.
Soleimani was responsible for slaughtering countless of Iranian civilians and the indoctrinated think that he was some sort of war hero? Obviously no one wants conflict to escalate to the point of bloodshed, but sometimes war is inevitable, especially when the opposition doesn't share the same values. Negotiation or soft power tactics don't work when you're dealing with extremists that don't hold the same beliefs that we take for granted in the West.
@@regnag445 West is hugely indoctrinated, they all believe in white supremacy and have a warped saviour complex, try to 'civilise' everyone. They need a mirror
Asian Boss is really getting the good scope. Really intriguing interviews. I have a better understanding of what's happening all around the world thanks to this outlet.
The first Iranian woman to speak (wearing the furry white coat) has a better outlook for both parties [Iran and U.S.] without warring it out. She would certainly make a good and sound diplomat. She doesn't take sides and is sensitive in dealing with the two countries. More so, she is more determine to achieve peaceful resolutions and facilitate discussion. I like her smartness.
As a South Korean, as a Seoulite, I think this Iranian man, who courageously criticized the human rights abuses and tyranny of the Iranian government, is awesome. I hope he will be safe in my country without any interference from the Iranian government or the Iranian embassy of Seoul.🐻
so much respect I have for the team behind this channel who go above and beyond to provide relevant insight on critical topics/issues, and while most people have been asking you guys to cover Wuhan virus topic, my hope for your team is that no doubt it is good to stay curious but please on the other hand, stay safe as well. I work in a public hospital in Singapore and the virus is still very unpredictable, please take loads of care if you all ever decide to carry out that interview or at least wait till the situation is more stabilised. God bless!
Discovered this channel a few days ago, and I think what you’re doing is great. I agree that it’s important to hear different perspectives from all over the world. Thank you for your hard work, and sharing these perspectives with us.
@@sakurakou2009 baloney. so how would you stop ISIS? just watch them until they get bored of killing? the only way to stop unjustified violence is by using justified violence. otherwise there will be no need for laws or law enforcers or military or any form of security,
Kudos to Asian Boss for getting on this topic and even trying to interview in Iran itself. I actually forget sometimes that officially the Middle East is part of Asia i.e. WEST ASIA ^_^ thanks for making me remember.
First of all, You guys (AsianBoss) are awesome! Your effort to bring this issue to light is much appreciated and not giving up when you were turned away. Second, I think the guy who spoke Iranian the whole time, he was right about almost everything.
I am always reminded that ordinary citizens have very different feelings toward the "enemies" of their respective countries than their politicians whom they supposedly elected to represent them. This has always puzzled me as to why they largely don't share the same attitudes of their own elected officials. If there's a huge gap between the people and the ones whom they chose to represent them, either the government officials are not doing their jobs or people are largely manipulated and led blindly.
lyld7 Iranian news outlets are obviously way worse but still, US media is not all that objective either so perhaps don’t be so quick to dismiss them just because their views don’t fit the narrative you’ve heard before.
It's not really their side, it's Iranians living in Korea's pov. There is tons of footage of Iranians in Iran wanting American aid. To stop the totalitarian government there.
Supreme leader a.k.a Trump. Who literally has more power than everyone. Love how you americans are so incredibly brainwashed into thinking that you have a democracy when your votes do not count. Amazing.
The one guy doesn’t believe that the Iranian government keeps their citizens quiet, however, they would not allow the people to speak to Asian Boss. The mere fact that he is being interviewed in Korea vs Iranians being interviewed in Iran says it all. Actions speak louder than words.
i am surprised to hear them talk about how they look at whats going on from the iranian side and also from the us side. i am luckily not in a country that is involved in anything like that, so that is probably why i find myself always thinking about political issues from a worldwide point of view and not from different "sides". i am always shocked that the us seems to be entirely unable to even try this and see the whole world as one thing and not just, there is america and then there is the seemingly useless rest.
As Iraqi,🇮🇶🇮🇶 I don't want Iran and US using my country, my people and my land to fight If they want to fight just go somewhere else and leave my country alone. We are sick of it 😷
Great! I understand how much work this took, respect. If this had been published right as the issue was viral, i'm sure your channel would gain the same popularity as it once had. But anyways, great work, keep going!
As always, great content. Nice balance of different perspectives that really ground the hyperbolic ratings-grabbing sensationalism of mainstream media.
As an American, I feel so so bad for Iran as I do not think the us needed to attack them like that and then justify the reasoning. If war breaks out, just know that many Americans absolutely hate our president and do not support his actions (he is being impeached after all) and that we pray for you and your country as the citizens of Iran do not deserve it.
when all these stuff were goin on as an Iranian myself , I was sure Asian boss gonna release something amazing about the issue , so lots of ppl would be aware of the horrifying silence government caused here in Iran , I cannot say how both thankful I am and also very shameful bc the case was interviewees lives in Iran otherwise they would accompany your amazing job
Literally IF PEOPLE ARE AFRAID TO TALK, YOU KNOW WHO THE BAD GUY/PEOPLE ARE. Their own citizens couldn't even speak in the street.. You're own admission!!
back in the 60’s Iran was a pretty modern country, but after the US did their “lets arm a bunch of rebels to overthrow their government for us” global strategy, the rebels ended being way worse for both Iranians and America same thing we did to South America, undermine and weaken governments by arming criminals and thugs to do our dirty work 😞
Just by watching this interview you can get how divided Iranian society is... So take this advise from an Iranian: When you ask about politics from an Iranian, they first say their own opinion and then they say 'the majority think like me'....!
The student in the green coat at the end, seemed the most sincere of all of them. Likewise I believe many were I'll informed as to the happenings since the general was killed. But as it is, I agree with most everything they said, especially the fact that in war, no one wins.
Ironic or whatelse!! I never made any statements about tukde-tukde and you're verbally abusing me on the basis of your half baked knowledge and preconceptions

@@alsuvarnadvipadanargentum1743 It's gotta suck for you though. There's active volcanoes across your country and I bet it's also vulnerable to earthquakes.
S Abhishek
That’s very true though and Bulkang Taal 🌋 is very dangerous, had some Ash fall in the surrounding houses around me including my own, part of the Pacific Ring of Fire 🔥
And we get a lot of Typhoons every year in the Northern half of the Malay Archipelago; heavy rain 🌧 accompanied by floods, typhoons, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes yeah definitely it’s more fun in the: “Welcome to the Philippines” were we have a lot of Natural disasters 😆😆😆🤣🤣🤣
I would like to commend Asian Boss for always doing their best to cover issues and not limiting it to East Asia. Even though their reach is limited, they worked within their limits to create content that can give us insight outside of TV/media (that may possibly already have some bias). I find myself getting interested with the culture and history of the Middle East and Iran lately, and I appreciate this video so much. Keep up the good work!
The bald guy's the views (the one speaking in Persian) line up perfectly with mine. The media a very powerful weapon that can (and _is_ ) being used to distort certain truths to manipulate how people think. And people in general need to be more open minded about that and not just take everything they hear as "fact"; it is dangerous to do so. That being said, my personal take on the whole Iran-American ordeal is that we (Americans) are the bad guys in this - we're the ones (or at least the Trump administration) who are trying to distort facts in order to justify our actions against Iran. All this just for control over the resources in that region. It's downright disgusting.
Okay boomer.`
Best of luck to the nation of Iran.
Love for Iran. From India ❤️
Much prayer to Iran, Iran ppl are nice . worked for them 25 yrs they help me alot thier food omg awesome. Children don't desrve this. Hope everything goes well , 💝
lets just ignore the fact that US Embassy was attacked and evacuated prior to this provoking the actions to eliminate soleimani
also us bases were emptied because iran told them to do so.
Yup
sneakapikachu exactly what I was thinking that lady just left out a major part of the story
lets also ignore the fact that the only reason the embassy was attacked in the first place was because of the US airstrikes against Iraq and Syria killing at least 25 people
Ash Ketchum how about the Chinese carry are flag and writing give me liberty or give me death what about those Chinese ?
Thank you for providing further context from a personal level about these events. True journalism at its finest. Peace and Love from America.
Thanks Asian Boss. As always you provide us with quality original content. 💖💖
A very interesting video and it was nice to watch different perspectives.
to all the Iranians..doset daram from India🇮🇳🇮🇷
Thank you for this video. Appreciate that you traveled to Iran and tried your best to learn about Iranians' perspectives. Interesting to hear the thoughtful comments made by Iranians in Korea. I hope you will continue to include more Iranian and West Asian content.
Omg, never thought I would be this early. This is such an interesting video though. Keep up the good work and the ever evolving perspectives!!!
"We tried to interview people on the street in iran" man I was like, that sounds like it could put the reporters in real danger :p glad it worked out
It didn't.
Yeah government is trash freedom is taken away and people are sick of it but look who has the power in hand people or government... Hope these fuckers leave our country alone
"we were stopped at every corner by Iranian police and pretty much no one wanted to talk to us on camera."
This is sad
It is sad
I call it a walk in tehran 😂
They kill us if we talk against them so we can't do much
10:48 Good to know it. We all want peace
I hope you guys can conduct more interviews focused on west Asian topics because this was interesting and I think people forget the middle east is in Asia lol.
@not gonna - I'm not trynna start something here but how are you gonna generalize the whole area as authoritarian. As if China isn't also out here with gait recognition, censorship, and concentration camps. people go back to visit their countries all the time without issues so the interviewers should be able to conduct interviews. with little issues. Iran, however, is having some problems right now so they probably couldn't do so at the moment. But they could go to Jordan, turkey, Lebanon, Qatar, etc. and within those countries, they can find individuals from surrounding middle eastern countries they cannot visit such as Palestine and Syria- a method they employed here. All I'm saying is I want middle easterners to speak- not be spoken about.
Middle East is not asia
@@historicallegends3702 It is though. its actually West Asia
5:57 Same thing is happening right now here in Iraq :( ever since October first the government blocked the internet for a whole month and murdered and kidnapped the journalists who tried to expose them to the world . And what was Iranian snipers killed 20 unarmed students and citizens who were protesting against the fcn Iraqi government , what's killing me is that the snipers were *Iranians* who were ordered by their higher-ups to murdered unarmed young protesters :( *we are struggling to live here in Iraq and then fcn Trump throws bombs in my town Baghdad which caused to block the roads and make us unable to go to our Universities and schools in peace* !! I hate all of u , those poor souls that got wasted in your games are in a better place but that's still not fair...
That's awful.. I pray for you and your peoples' safety.
isnt trump helping if hes killing people that are ruining the government and its people? im so confused? isnt trump killing the people who took your internet?
What a mess! As an American, I think we need to just get out of there! What are we doing? Is this helping?
@@Mokawoo I thought the same thing but ultimately decided for well wishes instead of trying to change someone's mind, didn't seem worth it, but it's the first I heard of it also.
Was it better under Saddam Hussein?
the one thing totally going over my head is the threat of distroying cultural heritage sites. losing cultural heritage sites is not only a loss for iran, it is a loss for the whole world!
i have not been to iran yet, but i feel like i dont want to lose cultural heritage sites anywhere in the world!
wtf is wrong with people. cant they just breath and think.
Robopecha hm
Oh I'm sorry was there cultural sites lost? Moron
US 🇺🇸 propaganda is what’s wrong
Aaa, the girl in the green coat is so sweet. Beautifully said in the end.
problem is that in these countries people get half information.
Iran uses terrorist groups are proxy war armies.
Same thing is done Saudi Arabia and Turkey.
However US only punishes Iran becoz it suit them and Iranian are not allies of USA.
on other hand Saudis and Turkey are yes boss countries of USA.
Nothing wrong in it. It is called diplomacy.
Second thing countries should only look into their interest.
however Iran too is deeply interested in Israel , Iraq and Lebanon with any significant advantage other than influence. if they iranian leaders would just have looked into their own interest situation much different.
In current scenario there is very good chance of US and Iran being back on track.
Soleimani was responsible for slaughtering countless of Iranian civilians and the indoctrinated think that he was some sort of war hero? Obviously no one wants conflict to escalate to the point of bloodshed, but sometimes war is inevitable, especially when the opposition doesn't share the same values. Negotiation or soft power tactics don't work when you're dealing with extremists that don't hold the same beliefs that we take for granted in the West.
I think you are also indoctrinated the west is the good side of the world
@@regnag445 stfu . you know nothing about Iran .
@@regnag445 West is hugely indoctrinated, they all believe in white supremacy and have a warped saviour complex, try to 'civilise' everyone. They need a mirror
US police slaughter thousands every year, why don't you direct the same reasoning towards them? Because they're Western
Love the non biased attitude of every interviewer on this channel! Great work guys!
You right, I just noticed that. I wish our news people did that.
Asian Boss is really getting the good scope. Really intriguing interviews. I have a better understanding of what's happening all around the world thanks to this outlet.
How to know if your government is actually bad: You have highly restricted internet, simple as that.
If u have ANY restrictions on anything (legal) of course.
Excellent interview as always. The Iranian comments were right on the money.
Seems like the bald guy is a well trained politician, his answers seems so rehearsed
He literally said isis was created by the US I hope you're joking lol
@@lyld7966 My point is that he's like a North Korean tour guide, that just reiterates the allowed viewpoint of the dictatorship.
@@lyld7966 He's technically right on that point though. Didn't they stem from Al-Qaeda which is basically CIA's project gone rogue?
Shaik Shamir not remotely accurate.
@@ponti5882 I recommend you read the heavily-documented book _The Management of Savagery_ by Max Blumenthal.
The first Iranian woman to speak (wearing the furry white coat) has a better outlook for both parties [Iran and U.S.] without warring it out. She would certainly make a good and sound diplomat. She doesn't take sides and is sensitive in dealing with the two countries. More so, she is more determine to achieve peaceful resolutions and facilitate discussion. I like her smartness.
Sensible and correct, Ekara.
As a South Korean, as a Seoulite, I think this Iranian man, who courageously criticized the human rights abuses and tyranny of the Iranian government, is awesome. I hope he will be safe in my country without any interference from the Iranian government or the Iranian embassy of Seoul.🐻
Excellent topic.
so much respect I have for the team behind this channel who go above and beyond to provide relevant insight on critical topics/issues, and while most people have been asking you guys to cover Wuhan virus topic, my hope for your team is that no doubt it is good to stay curious but please on the other hand, stay safe as well. I work in a public hospital in Singapore and the virus is still very unpredictable, please take loads of care if you all ever decide to carry out that interview or at least wait till the situation is more stabilised. God bless!
Discovered this channel a few days ago, and I think what you’re doing is great. I agree that it’s important to hear different perspectives from all over the world. Thank you for your hard work, and sharing these perspectives with us.
attacking the general was a terrible mistake and shitty move HOWEVER no one points out that they attacked him for managing some terror attacks
u can't stop violent with violence
sakurakou2009 what was ww2 for then.
@@sakurakou2009 baloney. so how would you stop ISIS? just watch them until they get bored of killing?
the only way to stop unjustified violence is by using justified violence. otherwise there will be no need for laws or law enforcers or military or any form of security,
@@sakurakou2009 correct i never said the attack was justfied but there's more details than they think
16:49 i really liked this guys conversation, no sugar coating his words 😅
I like and respect the girl in white dress, the ways she talks and think.. And there is a gentleman who speak soft he is also great
Kudos to Asian Boss for getting on this topic and even trying to interview in Iran itself. I actually forget sometimes that officially the Middle East is part of Asia i.e. WEST ASIA ^_^ thanks for making me remember.
16:50 this guy was a Persian advisor in his last life!
weeb
First of all, You guys (AsianBoss) are awesome!
Your effort to bring this issue to light is much appreciated and not giving up when you were turned away.
Second, I think the guy who spoke Iranian the whole time, he was right about almost everything.
Love this interviewer, she is good
Great interview. Thanks
Sincerely praying for WORLD PEACE🙏
Si Vis Pacem Parrabellum
wont happen
with our countries keep giving usa too much power it won't happen 🤷🏻♀️
Whispering to oneself or the sky has never solved anything.
@@OjaysReel Hi. I respect you opinion brother.
We appreciate the effort you guys put to bring the voice of Iranians to the media! Thank you! 👍👍❤️
Which one? againt u or...
I am always reminded that ordinary citizens have very different feelings toward the "enemies" of their respective countries than their politicians whom they supposedly elected to represent them. This has always puzzled me as to why they largely don't share the same attitudes of their own elected officials. If there's a huge gap between the people and the ones whom they chose to represent them, either the government officials are not doing their jobs or people are largely manipulated and led blindly.
It’s nice to see their side of the story
Bruh they are fed propaganda
lyld7 Iranian news outlets are obviously way worse but still, US media is not all that objective either so perhaps don’t be so quick to dismiss them just because their views don’t fit the narrative you’ve heard before.
Diversify your information sources. For example, BBC news covered the preceding embassy attack in a different light.
It's not really their side, it's Iranians living in Korea's pov. There is tons of footage of Iranians in Iran wanting American aid. To stop the totalitarian government there.
One of the biggest reasons why one country is better than the other is due to the maturity of their rule of law.
"According to our supreme leader" hahahahaha
That's the guy's official title. They have a president and a supreme leader.
@@sulsur4151 Nope, the president and supreme leader of Iran are two different people.
Supreme leader a.k.a Trump. Who literally has more power than everyone. Love how you americans are so incredibly brainwashed into thinking that you have a democracy when your votes do not count. Amazing.
Vanico hm
SO awesome that u got this interview done!!!
The one guy doesn’t believe that the Iranian government keeps their citizens quiet, however, they would not allow the people to speak to Asian Boss. The mere fact that he is being interviewed in Korea vs Iranians being interviewed in Iran says it all. Actions speak louder than words.
Glad to see Asian Boss going west! Thank you ^^
i am surprised to hear them talk about how they look at whats going on from the iranian side and also from the us side. i am luckily not in a country that is involved in anything like that, so that is probably why i find myself always thinking about political issues from a worldwide point of view and not from different "sides".
i am always shocked that the us seems to be entirely unable to even try this and see the whole world as one thing and not just, there is america and then there is the seemingly useless rest.
Everyone is ignorant to everyone. And you are an example.
Best wishes to the citizens of Iran and other troubled countries 🙏💕
As Iraqi,🇮🇶🇮🇶 I don't want Iran and US using my country, my people and my land to fight If they want to fight just go somewhere else and leave my country alone. We are sick of it 😷
Iraq is already destroyed
When you are too early that you have to come back later for good comments
Loved the closing statements 💜
Great! I understand how much work this took, respect. If this had been published right as the issue was viral, i'm sure your channel would gain the same popularity as it once had. But anyways, great work, keep going!
Thank you for this perspective! I had no idea about the discrepancies between Iranian and American viewpoints.
They all have friends and family that are basically held hostage in Iran.
All of these people asked them have families in Iran u could understand it
2020 is starting unkindly.
Lol
Thank you for giving a different perspective on the conflict between Iran and the United States.
As always, great content. Nice balance of different perspectives that really ground the hyperbolic ratings-grabbing sensationalism of mainstream media.
This was great content Asian Boss. Keep up the good work. It was refreshing to hear the thoughts of Iranians.
As an American, I feel so so bad for Iran as I do not think the us needed to attack them like that and then justify the reasoning. If war breaks out, just know that many Americans absolutely hate our president and do not support his actions (he is being impeached after all) and that we pray for you and your country as the citizens of Iran do not deserve it.
I couldn't agree more. Our hearts are with you ❤ an apology isn't enough.
Very cool to get this insight. Thank you :)
Good work👍👍
Shocked that no one in Iran wanted to speak freely in front of a camera.
Because they would be dead right about now.
when all these stuff were goin on as an Iranian myself , I was sure Asian boss gonna release something amazing about the issue , so lots of ppl would be aware of the horrifying silence government caused here in Iran , I cannot say how both thankful I am and also very shameful bc the case was interviewees lives in Iran otherwise they would accompany your amazing job
Great you’ve expended to West Asians! Hope we can get some from Central Asians too!
Or anatolia
@@maxbeckmann3063 Turkey is West Asia too
I agree with 95% of what the man speaking in Farsi says. I live in Iran.
Love this iranian,thanks for the Interview
12:11 i like how you guys translate it to "supreme leader" so no one can take what that guy said seriously
What??Most of Iranian people hate solaimani ..😂 come to iran and ask from Iranian people if you want know realty..good job trump 👍
Great channel and this is why!
Interesting FACT: The Main Business Area of Seoul (GANGNAM, as in Gangnam Style) is called TEHERAN-RO .. and vice versa. See it on Google Maps.
Ive been there before actually. Is it named after the Iranian capital?
I always like to hear “the people’s” opinion✌️
Love this video.
I'm American and it was a sad day in our history when we assassinated Soleimani. I lost all respect for our president.
I'd subscribe a second or third time if it would be possible! Love all of you guys and gals! All the best from germany!
Many Iranians hated that general for killing his people so in a way, everyone wins
Literally IF PEOPLE ARE AFRAID TO TALK, YOU KNOW WHO THE BAD GUY/PEOPLE ARE. Their own citizens couldn't even speak in the street.. You're own admission!!
Is that why the US wants to kill them? "You don't have free speech? DIE"
back in the 60’s Iran was a pretty modern country, but after the US did their “lets arm a bunch of rebels to overthrow their government for us” global strategy, the rebels ended being way worse for both Iranians and America
same thing we did to South America, undermine and weaken governments by arming criminals and thugs to
do our dirty work 😞
Bravo to you guys for doing this!
On a sidenote, the first interviewee is gorgeous!
Just by watching this interview you can get how divided Iranian society is...
So take this advise from an Iranian:
When you ask about politics from an Iranian, they first say their own opinion and then they say 'the majority think like me'....!
the last speech of that woman was so on point!! war just kills innocent people
3:51 this guy knows the truth
Asian boss is the kind of service we don't deserve but we need❤
The student in the green coat at the end, seemed the most sincere of all of them. Likewise I believe many were I'll informed as to the happenings since the general was killed. But as it is, I agree with most everything they said, especially the fact that in war, no one wins.
Good job Asian Boss, very interesting
When will u cover CAA protest In India?
It's been almost 2 months
Will do so if they finally try to listen.
I'm seeing intolerance and hatred in this comment, please go get a therapist
@Ankit Banerjee are Bhai yanha kyu aukat dikha raha hai wo Tujhe bola kya me CAA ka against nhu
Ironic or whatelse!!
I never made any statements about tukde-tukde and you're verbally abusing me on the basis of your half baked knowledge and preconceptions
Everything doesn't need to be mentioned
