I been in Iran and every Irani I met, they blame british for all their misery to start with. Second Mullahs who I found the second most hated.
absolutely......
and I wish we could help the 2 come closer together, though we know that given their size and their goals they wont be on the same page for quite some time -- I think its politics and the habit of both countries to exert their religious ideals politically (Wahhabism/Politicized Shiism)
I have also found the Iranians of all stripes blame British for conspiring against Iran.
Pakistan should facilitate the meeting among Persian Gulf countries. We should cooperate with Iran to have a neutral government in Afghanistan that does not have extremist from either Taliban or Northern Alliance.

Eyy Iran --- what are the feelings of young Iranians towards Pakistan, towards the Arabs and towards the U.S. ??
Hard to generalize 78 million people (many of whom are these youth in question) but give me your analysis
The Iranian I talked to are 25-34 and had been in Canada for long time. May be they have been influenced by their parents and/or grandparents. Nonetheless this is the common theme among them.
This is mostly propaganda by Americans, Zionists and corrupt Arab governments. The Saudi Arabian government still ruled by Wahabi-Saudi clique that has been suppressing its people. Iran has large educated middle class and a degree of democracy.
This post of Grand Ayatollah (آية *الله العظمی) existed among Usuli Twelver Shīah clerics. This post also now includes itile of Supreme Leader of Iran (رهبر انقلاب). The post of Grand Ayatollah is achieved after decades of study and publishing of Islamic theology.
The Shah's coup d'état against Mohammad Mosaddegh in 1953 was start of dictatorship in Iran. Then 1979 the revolution in Iran overthrew Shah. Both have failed to create strong democratic institutions in Iran. The Iraqi invasion of Iran supported by US and Saudi Arabia resulted in less acceptance of opposition.
New Recruit
Democracy is just a show off ... All main powers are in the hand of supreme leader which is not elected by the people of Iran .. he will rule until he dies & the next one came ... its like Dictatorship .[/Q
Actually it's not like that! He is indirectly elected by the Iranian people. In Iran, the council of elites which all it's member are elected by people every five or six years ( I'm not sure) has the responsibility to find the person who had the criteria as the supreme leader and they unceasingly surveil him to maintain his criteria, by loosing one criterion he will be deposed from the post instantly.
And his power is limited by the constitution voted by majority of Iranian. He is to some extent like a stabilizer between third separated powers in Islamic republic. Also he draws the strategies and major policies. Moreover he is the root of religious legitimacy of Islamic republic which gives him the duty of watching over the Islamic rules and values.
I'm not going to say we are a western democracy because that's not true. In fact we've got our own system of governance which is designed for our ethnics and belief. It's not fully intact and need some progression and reforms like all the other political sovereignty but it's indigenous and I'm proud of it.
you mean the referendum after revolution? yes people heard words of Khomeini but IRI changed since then. Khamenei is acting like a dictator.Actually it's not like that!
