The Iranian Blogosphere



Links

Iranian bloggers are mostly anti-regime secular, pro-western liberals, right? Well, not according to this fascinating harvard study that has “mapped” the Iranian blogosphere. (Via Andrew Sullivan via Zenpundit )

    There is main criterias and common elements about the persians living in the west:

    1) They are so nationalistic. They believe that Iran is a supreme nation. lol

    2) They support the nuclear project, which is threat for the rest of the Humanity. Depsite their so called ”opposition” to the regime.

    3) They hate arabs and they blame them for imposing Islam on them.

    4)They pretend that Arabian Gulf is Persian, Bahrain is Persian and the Emirati occupied islands are persians.

    5) They think (lol) that in Lebanon we love Iran and we’re thankful for their ”help” (providing terror training and mini rocks to HizIran).

    6) They enjoy Western freedom but at the same time they support their government which want to destroy the West!

    7) They are finally maniaco-depressive nihilistic freaks full of hate and issues.

    May Bush Free Iran, Inshallah!!!!

    “4)They pretend that Arabian Gulf is Persian”

    I just checked the map, gulf is called ‘Persian’. Of cause, it is neither Persian nor Arabic. It belongs to everybody barring narrow band of coastal waters.

    Do not get me wrong. If you wish to call it ‘Arabic’, by all means. Just make sure everybody else understands what you mean.

    Iran hate again,
    Why do we all pick on little things like the name of the gulf or the little Islands who were taken during the Shah .

    Iran has never harmed any arab country since the Khomaini took over, the war with Iraq , Saddam started it with the backing of the USA and the gulf countries.
    Does anyone agrees with what’s happening in Palestine( I don’t need to list the crimes) ? Israel knows one language , Killing . While all Arab leaders are watching and busy getting richer , Iran is developing and catching up with the rest of the world, they still have a long way to go but at least they are a head of all the Arabs combined.
