The Iranian journalist, expert on the Middle East contemporary history

I watch, follow and read your political commentaries every week. I am not a pro Shah or pro Islamic Republic activist; and I am not either a communist or a mojahed, which are the easy labels used by Pro Shah activists against others. In fact I am not supporting any regimes with lifetime supreme leader, Shah or Ayatollah.

I know the Islamic regime has lots of severe and deep economic and social problems. They are not a democratic regime at all. You attack the Islamic government and president Ahmadinejad every week, which is fine, but I noticed that you are intentionally hiding some other primary facts related to the region in your commentaries that directly affect and jeopardize the future of the Iranian people.

My understanding from your political commentaries is that you wish the western allied forces attack Iran and topple the Islamic regime as soon as possible. How about the innocent Iranian people? I know you are against the Islamic Regime. I am against them too, but I am not against the Iranian people and I won’t wish any military attacks against any countries including Iran. Is it fine with you to see Iran as another lawless country like Iraq with daily destructions, massacres and genocides?

What did the Iraqi people gain and what did they lose after the invasion of their country by the allied military forces? You as a responsible journalist must reveal the disastrous facts in Iraq for the world and Iranian people, every day. I am not supporting any monster regimes in Iran or any other countries, but I am not supporting the invasions, destructions, massacres and genocides in any countries for any reasons and under any circumstances.

Your propaganda is that the allied military forces are not responsible for the daily military attacks and unpredictable bloody and disaster violence in the new lawless Iraq, which resulted more than 700,000 deaths of innocent people over the past four years. Who attacked and invaded Iraq and made a stable country to be a lawless, unorganized and extremely violent country?

It seems that you have no problems with the invasion and destruction of Iraq. You have problems with the Iraqi insurgents who are against the invasion of their own country and possible supports by Iranians and Syrians.

You know, the western allied forces attacked Iraq for oil, extra military power, military bases and advantages in the region, and many other political goals except DEMOCRACY for Iraqi people. You know that Iraq was a leftist and Russians allied country for a long time and recently was getting close to China. In fact, the Iraqi military forces were built and equipped by Russians.

If you believe or pretend to believe that democracy was the primary purpose of U.S./British attacks to Iraq, then the legitimacy, credibility and integrity of your journalism honor will be under doubt and questions. Do you see democracy in Saudi Arabia, South Korea, Pakistan, Egypt, Jordan, Kuwait and other countries that are controlled by supper powers? Can you consider them as democratic regimes, while their prisons are over crowded of political prisoners, and people can’t express their opinions against those monster governments?

Please remember that the western propaganda medias, such as the Fox News, BBC and CNN made the world ready for destruction of Iraq before the actual military attacks. Now they are doing the similar negative propagandas against Iran and you are supporting them by only attacking the existing Iranian regime every day and censoring yourself about the innocence of the Iranian people and the current daily destructions, massacres and genocides in the Middle East.

You should know that the Islamic regime has recently started broadcasting a TV serial “Zero Degree Turn” for one hour every Monday night at 10:00 o'clock, about the Iranian sympathetic to plight of Jews during the Holocaust. They are telling the world: “Do not bomb us; We are not against Holocaust, Jewish community or any countries whatsoever; We may say something harsh, but the Iranian people have never attacked any countries during the past 200 years”.
