Iran has isolated itself
If Iran is isolated against Muslim allies that PROUDLY host US bases and attack civilians in Yemen but take no concrete steps against Al Qaeda in Yemen or ISIS in the region, then it makes us proud to be isolated.
It's interesting that you say this while you are living in one of the active coalition members countries, the UAE. According to your previous posts, you have been living in Dubai for most of your life. Persia or Iran or whatever is an hour flight, and most Western countries have been offering you guys safe heaven through refugee immigration visas (among other types of immigration routes). Yet, you decide to live among Arabs that hate you and look down on you. Shamelessly trading your dignity for stacks of dollars.
What are you talking about? I live in Tehran. I USED to live in Dubai and I have great memories from my time there. A lot of my Arab friends did not look down on me, and I respected and still respect them greatly.
Some of my extended family has been in Dubai for many decades, and a lot of "Arabs" there in Dubai were originally Iranians, who went and started a business in Dubai (like in Kuwait & Oman & Qatar) back in 70s & 80s. This is not something I find shameful. People move around, looking for better opportunities, and it is only recently that people draw strict racial lines.
My grandfather was offered the UAE citizenship in the 80s, but he never accepted. If he had, would I have become "Arab"? Who the hell cares. Each person should be part of the country he is the citizen off. Only in the west, do we have the race of the hyphens. The Mexican-American or the Italian-American makes no sense to me. They should all be Americans.
Unfortunately, it seems some people, have been greatly influenced by racial concepts from the west. You think when Salman Farsi was with Prophet Mohammad, everyone treated him differently because he wasn't an Arab? Or he was treated with the exact same respect & dignity as any other of Prophet Mohammad's followers, whether Iranian, African, or Arab.
