I feel sorry for your ignorance.Iran is a very good and developed country that now most countries wanna be like it! HOWEVER, I agree with you in that I don't like the ones running our country.They're inefficient.Do you even know that the greates sintists in the world are all Iranians? Do you? No, you don't.To get enlightened read the above article and see a complete list of that has listed the names of all the great Iranian sintists in the U.S! BTW, Iran itslef has over 1 million inside it! It means that Iran is the thrid country in the world having the highest number of scintists. (After India and Korea).Get educated then speak up! Oh and I agree that Arab culture is crappy but Persian culture (Iranian culture that is) is so famous and great you're hopelss.

Although it's technically a country in which Farsi (Persian) is spoken, it's like thinking that Mexico is a Western country. It's because of your physical proximity to Arab countries, and the fact that you're part of OPEC. Plus, you're all Muslims. ;-)

You mean, [ some ] westerners. This is a generalization otherwise. Not everyone reads history, or reads period.

Because most Americans have almost NO knowledge of world history and events and no knowledge of the Middle east. The jewish-run media in the US only makes matters worse by giving the American public a false view of the world and a totally wrong view of the Middle East.

we do know your country is packed with animals. How can you sit by and allow your leaders to brutalize your women? Sorry, Islam is anything BUT peaceful!
