      True. In 1953 they could have had a democratically elected government until the British interfered and put in the Puppet Shah.

      I was there last February and the people are so kind in Iran I never experienced this kindness in other places, and I travel a lot. The people are nice, the food and their culture. The people are not their government, they are just human like us. If I have the chance again I will go again to Iran!

I forgave him because he is the one that missed out on a beautiful woman that she is today and has 4 son's which means he is also missing out on 4 absolutely amazing grandson's. I wish I could tell him about them but I don't know if he is even alive, just that he was from a small village near Shiraz. He would be about 64 now. I hope he is happy.

    I can only speak from personal experience. I was a young woman in London & met many Iranian families who'd fled from Iran after the Shah had been deposed. They were gentle, kind, intelligent & well educated people. The professional classes. They were devastated at what they thought was a massive backward step in their country & wept for their beautiful country. They had lost so much, yet they remained optimistic. I know most either stayed in London or moved to the US. Certainly far, far nicer than the violent thugs invading Europe.

      @@pepper2240 I was uncertain that I could answer this question truthfully until today, monday, after I spoke to our integration lawyer.. I'm sad to say that there are many "new" or renewed restrictions on Iranian nationals and citizens wishing to enter the USA - legally. However, if you claim asylum citizenship from Iran, you will be granted immediate citizenship. (I know the irony in that, but that is how the US statute is written, according to my immigration lawyer.) Best of luck, truly.)

    I used to live in LA and I love Iranians! Mashti Malone's ice cream and faloodeh is the best! I used to go there twice a week and I've never had better ice cream in my life!

    I love Mashti Malone's. A typical weekend trip to Los Angeles for us might include a meal at Awash Ethiopian cuisine then a stop at Mashti Malone's on the way back to the 101. Growing up in the Los Angeles area, with so many Persian/Iranian friends, there didn't seem to be anything "other" about them. Great video in pointing out the discrimination my friends' families faced and I wasn't even aware of.

    Iranians produced the most greathearted, genius, gentle, manful with profound morality and manners.....My hats off to beloved Ahmedinejad ......Never ever the world will see a leader like him, I very much enjoyed all his interviews with the western media’s...... He responded all questions quick with the perfect answer it was like firing bullets to the heart of the bias & puppet journalists , he crushed the heart of the questioner and never got offended at all......I pray that one day u unite the entire Muslim nations who lost each other...... And I prayed u read books written by Leopald Weiss ( aka Mohamed Asad)....... I , too learned lot through his books.......
    My prayer to you all

    There was always so much hate, racism, division, and social separation in our country and the political chaos we've been seeing the past couple years is only a result of the combination of our historical failures. I remember growing up in the 80's how my own fellow white Americans only ostracized me, beat me up, call me derogatory names, and just were mean separatists trying to get people criminalized for no reason other than I wasn't from their town. The failure in diversity represents the failure in the traditional European white establishment which will come to a head one day in full blown devastating civil war for we needed a genuine democracy without the unlimited lobbying and massive financial corruption instead of a big banana republic causing all the division. It's rather ironic that the immigrant nation didn't ever make a genuine attempt at diversity and inclusion for it was just about money and this selfish me me me, get out of my way, I'm better than you, I'll take you out, kind of nonsense. I've wished for a long time that there was a two way immigrant program where for each one that comes here, allow a US citizen to be hosted by their mother country to try out for citizenship. Instead of meaningful exchange programs, the Western countries just filled up with non-Westerners seeking opportunity to ensure order out of chaos nonsense. America is just about over...

      Scott Bixler sorry to hear that. I am not sure where you live, but the US is very different in each region and between cities and rural. The experience of non-whites in NYC and LA will be different than in a smaller city or rural area that is predominately white, though honestly, if you are a visible minority in an enclave in the US, you can also experience racism from those who aren't white. That said, most of human history we existed in small tribes with those most like ourselves and had to be careful around other tribes, sometimes there would be conflict or murders between them. I think this has hardcoded us to by default to be untrusting and fearful of those we think aren't enough like us. I think solving this to have perfect racial harmony is complex but reducing income inequality, providing top education country-wide (in the US, the best education is for the wealthiest and some lucky poorer students who are overachievers and very smart), and finding ways to reduce the amount of hate and fear spread via right media and social media would do a lot to help (the last is tough because the racists and fear spreaders will claim censorship, but letting them spread their hate and disinformation freely has warped a lot of people's minds very quickly). I think the racial situation in Canada is better overall, though they have a historical issue with the native population, overall I think there is far less tension (though not 100% perfect of course).

    I was nine years old when the Islamic Revolution took place in Iran. After 9/11, I’ve wondered why we have not normalized relations with the Iranian government and the people. They are not our enemy.
    I hope one day in the near future, we can open up travel between our two nations. I would love to go visit Iran and see all the wonderful people and places that have there.
