A very deep culture, great contributions to science, art and collective human experience. Mixed results lately. Good idea to overthrow the shah, bad idea to establish a theocracy and kill so many political and religious dissidents. Good achievement to be able to keep so many different ethnic groups together, bad idea to develop nuclear weapons. Good idea to care about Palestinians, bad idea to start every sentence with "Death to Israel". Good food, bad ayetollahs. Bad idea to imprison journalists, publicly mass execute prisoners, release a fatwa to kill Salman Rushdie, corporal and capital punishment for "anti-islamic" behavior...

What comes to my mind is why not be friendly. Why all the hostility against people that want to be friendly and build a bond to doing good things together. We have things to offer and Iran has things to offer. Tick for tack. We can all get along. For real, this planet earth and all the people on it can be friendly and get along with one another. Period. I would like to walk into Iran talk with the people and break bread and ask what can be done to become friends. If theres some dumbshit, out of this world request, I'm gone. Then dropping the bigass bomb, kickingass and taking names, this my (usa)nation now. (haha) that would be a trip wouldn't it? Man we can all get along, I don't know what the problem is, need to chill smoke some weed or something to mello out. Peace

I don't know what to think about Iran. If I take your leaders words quoted in the media I would come to the conclusion your going to destroy Israel and America. Now if I were to look at the news today I would see videos of your weapons being fired at our troops in Iraq.
I still have reservations about attacking Iran because I don't believe the U.S. should be starting war around the world. Really I think we should ditch the Republicans and Democrats and start over and follow the constitution.
Iran had better watch out because the word is out. Your fighting a proxy war with Israel using Hezbollah and your supplying Iraq insurgents weapons. Your close to nukes or at least dirty bombs. The establishment is going to come after you. They don't listen to me.

Iran has beautiful mountains, a rich history, great science and literature, delicious food, attractive people, and a desire to be left alone by the rest of the world (especially the Western world). I hope the political situation calms down so I can visit someday.
