@ultron needs to use that as the new calling card of the alliance. Maybe call it the NOS Alliance (Nusayri, Orthodox, Shia)

Every news source segregates it separately. In Fars, it is four groups, Reformist, Principlist, Moderate (Rouhani's group), and Independent. Rouhani's group generally has very little. It's a fallacy to paint Iranian politics in terms of simple western makeup. In USA, it's so easy to separate...

A leader needs a vision and consistency in this vision. Turkey's problem is that its inconsistence. One day it's Muslims, the next day it's NATO, then it's EU, then it's Sunni Muslims, then it's Turkmen, its anti-Iran, then it's pro-Iran, it's anti-Israel, then it's let kiss and make up, and so on.

What car is everyone driving? Almost for the past 5 years, I've been driving an MG6 (same blue color). I'll probably sell it before the 5 years warranty is up, but it has been a great car. I don't care what anyone says, the Chinese have great value for their stuff

Mazda comes from Ahura Mazda Nissan Qashqai comes from the tribe in Iran Ferrari comes from Fereydoun Kidding on the last one, heh heh.

Jalili made a good point regarding Ahmadenijad's "kaghaz pare". He compared it to Khomeini's comment after Saddam fired a rocket at Iran, he said, "yek divuneh yeh sangi andakht". Jalili said, that's not because Khomeini didn't know that a rocket is not the same as a stone, but because he...

I wish this thread has less of emotional, propagandist tirades and more actual news. After 1024 pages, I think we sort of know which side everyone is, and no amount of arguments is going to change anyone's mind, so why not focus more on objective facts?

Good question, but probably the technology we are sharing is not that special anyway. How advanced do you think our technology in car manufacturing is anyway? I think the headline sounds more impressive than it actually probably is.

Please explain.

Bro, we've never been an enemy of Pakistan, but let's be realistic, it's not like our navels are stuck together. Why hasn't the gas pipeline between Iran and Pakistan finished? We have been supposedly talking about this seriously since the 90s. Are we going to hate you because USA's & Saudi's...

A quick summary, guys, regarding the Doha talks in my own words. There are lots of articles on it. There was supposed to an agreement between oil producing countries to freeze oil production. Iran had refused the measure since day 1, because our oil has still not reached pre-sanctions era...

My country doesn't want to choose India over Pakistan. We hope we can have positive relations with both countries. The same way we try to build a good relationship with both Armenia and Azerbaijan even though they are enemies.

It's not a very well-written, clear cut law. There is a lot of variations on how it is applied, such as, are they Iranian or non-Iranian (non-Iranians's dress codes are tolerated much more), where is the city (a tourist like Kish is more lax than a religious place like Qom), the age of the...

You are extremely defensive. I'm not attacking Arabs. I'm finding fault with the survey. There is two main concerns I have with the survey, 1) The complete data is not given, so we can see the breakdown of the answers given per country, as most reputable polls do (look at Pew's or Gallop's)...

As per the law and political norms, she doesn't have to cover herself like that. A simple headscarf is enough. For example, look at EU's Mogherini, So this means that maybe Ms Sushma Swaraj just likes to cover herself up and is embarrassed to do it in her own country.

I said, "Almost 1 in 5 young people from the GCC support Daesh, while 1 in 14 from Levant & Yemen support Daesh, that's a big difference. What we break it up further? " I looked at the figure again, which is, Over 13% agree with the statement "I could see myself supporting it". Breaking it...

http://www.chaiandconversation.com/2014/11-persian-sayings-make-no-sense-english I love the extreme examples of our taorof, specially the old way the lootis talked. "khake zire patam" (I am the dust under your feet". Koja budi? (where we you?) Zire saye shoma (under your shadow) Haha...

I don't agree with this deal, but your headline is wrong. How is it treason if the elected government, the elected parliament, the guardian council, supreme national security council, and the leader all agreed to it? If there is something wrong with the deal, then all of the above should share...

I don't think this survey is very useful until we see the detailed findings. I downloaded "the white paper" but couldn't find an exact question by question broken down per country details anywhere on the site. Its ridiculous to group "Arab youths" together. In this survey, it shows 1 in 8 young...

Majority of us don't blame Arabs. We don't even blame Iraqis for the Iraq war, given how friendly our two countries are now and how even friendly the population of the two sides are with each other. We know most the state leaders in our region are merely the puppets of greater powers outside...
