You need to overcome your fears and rise above your opressive leader. Iran's current president seems to be hell bent on starting WWIII.

I'm an Iranian in Canada and you might not agree with what I say, but this is my opinion.\nFirst of all, I'm guessing you are getting your information from the Amrican Media. And I would like to say that the Amrican Media is wrong on many of the views they show.\nSecond of all, to answer your question, I have to say most people don't understand, because you get the same view that the US governemnt wants you to have and thats that Iran is the enemy and they are undeveloped!! AND THAT IS WRONG!!! Once I remember this guy coming up to me and asked me "Back in Iran to dirve, how many camels did you have?" I was shocked and amazed by the stupidity of this person. I told him, I have never even seen a camel and my car in Iran was a Mercedes!!!

At the moment, we know North Korea has nukes and so far as we know, Iran doesn't (although I can't shake the feeling that they may have nabbed some of the ones that were shipped out of Iraq.) Therefore, I'd say North Korea is presently a bigger threat, although the fundamentalist regime and mentality of many Iranians probably makes them the more dangerous long-term.

iran has a very long history, it is part of humankind history. at one time, they were the most powerful nation in the civilized world. they contributed much to science and art and have a very refined culture. \n\ni have known iranians, and i found them very intelligent and respectful\n\nthe problem now is that everyone is against them right now, which makes matters worse. they feel threatned and react angrily. how would you feel if everyone critizes you?\n\ni think iran should be integrated into the international community. they should open their doors and other countries should open their doors. iranians should see what is life outside iran, and other people should visit iran to see what it is like there.\n\nconcerning recent events, i think it is their legitimate rights to get nuclear technology. a lot of countries have also nuclear technology. it is not fair if you forbide them. it would make sense if france, usa, uk or russia stop using nuclear technology. but they continue using it and forbid everyone else to have it. what kind of attitude is that?\n\npeople worry that iran might produce nuclear bombs. but they are not the first one to get nuclear bombs. i think every country should ban nuclear bombs.

I am not expecting too much from Iran. \nThey might not make it to the next round.

This question is nearly impossible to answer.  If you were born in Iran, your 'input' would be so completely different from the way it is here..you would be 'taught' what to think of America just as we are 'taught' what to think of Iran.  If you were born in Iran, you could not possibly have the same brain [meaning thoughts and beliefs] as you do now.  The situations, experiences and everyday 'teaching' are so completely different.  We would like to THINK that we would like American EVEN if we were born elsewhere, but propoganda being what it is, that is highly unlikely.  We are fed so much info on other countries, much of which is not actually true, just as other countries have a distorted and false view of the reality of America.  The only way for any of us to know the true essence of another country..as best we can.. is to live there, in their shoes and in their lives.. but we can never TRULY know.. because we weren't born into their lives.. into their beliefs and into the things they have been told and taught from birth.

It won't be a war ... Iran is like twice almost three times as big as Iraq. But that is not the reason we will or won't go to war with Iran. The people of Iran are far more sophisticated about the modern world than Iraq was .. the people of Iran know far to well that a nuclear option with the west is an option that is one that they can not win. The nuclear option can not work for them .. the Israelis have the bomb ... India has the bomb .. Pakistan has the bomb ... nobody wants another bomb in the 'hood ! Israel will not let them have a bomb ... no question ... they just won't sit still for it ... they have taken them out before ... and the US will just let them do it ... It's a tough roll of the dice .. it's a hot piece of real estate in the world ... but I bet that's the way it plays out. Russia and China want the oil ... but I don't think they want to play the nuclear gambit ... yet ! Iran's gov't doesn't want to back down... that shows weakness ... but the people of Iran don't back the gov't. ... more people in Iran oppose the gov't. in place ... so we sit and wait and see if they can vote them out .. or if the military takes over the state !

Neither, The regime in Iran simply needs to not be able to produce nukes.\n\nDestroy their enrichment facilities and leave it at that.\n\nWe don't need the country.\n\nWith luck, the Israeli's will resolve that for us.

Vow Marianne, don't accept what people claim to be.\nThey announce that everyone who sign up for this Suiside Bombing show will get a raise on his paycheck and you can imagine how many people will sign up , they usually force some of Military people to join it and they happily accept it for few days off. They will march once and go back to their homes.\nA suiside bomber needs to be a little insane because of very bad circumstances, he needs to think he is doing it for God, freedom, his country and his family, this is possible for a Palestinian not an Iranian.\nHave you heard of any suiside bombing done by Iranians? You can check 9/11, Israel and Iraq suiside attacks and all the sources you have. Have you heard any Iranian in Al-Quada?\nEven religious Iranians don't like such acts, they rather to go Iraq as a pilgrim instead of terrorist.\nIranian has threatened Israel for 30 years,  no harm to Israel has done by Iran, I mean it is true that Iran supports some of Anti Israel groups a little but US has a Anti Iran budget, we can call it even.\nIran and Israel relationship is too complicated, many famous Jews are from Iran, Jews are really free in Iran(Like everywhere else they are in Business), they have same enemies(Arabs don't like Iranians too, they call Iranians Ajam which means shallow people and Iranians can't forget what Arabs did when they capture Iran just once), Farsi is a spoken language in Israel(this one is from wikipedia) and many other facts that I can't remember now.\nAnyways I can't understand why Pakistan who has supported Bin Laden and Taleban can have nukes and Iran can't use it for peaceful energy making, Iran and West will find a political solution for enrichment problem as soon as West come with a good offer, Iranians know that US can't invade Iran right now and UN will not support any attack on Iran(because of good relations with China and Russia) so they are playing a political game.\nI personally recommend you not be affraid of any of 52,000 Iranians suiside bombers, this is just a show.\nEdit: Ok, this Iraqi dude made me to give some facts that are not related to the subject at all and I don't like to discuss them here but there is no other choices.\n1. During a declared war and against military forces there  anything except chemical and nuclear weapons isn't prohibited, it is not a terrorist act against civilians, I don't know what you've heard about Iranian suiside bombers during Iran-Iraq war, there was some going into mine territory actions to open the road for others because Saddam had a taste for land mines.\nI think our government was absolutely right about liberating Iraq from Saddam, that is exactly  why US army is in Iraq now, we wanted to liberate you from a heinous dictator that use chemical weapon against you(Like Shalamche where thousands of Iraqi civilians died with Saddam chemical weapons) and some years next did a great massacre against Shiie people .\nOf course I'm with Israelis, that's not my problem, that's not my people problem, I don't care what they do to Arabs there, most of my people don't, Arabs problems are for their own, I have told before, its a tradition for Iranians to say wipe out Israel, nothing has done and will be done. Of course Iran has missles which can reach Israel, it is not a secret, Iran has tested them and US has seen the test, I have told here, these weapons have political uses not military ones, Iranians don't want a war, Iran president knows it.\nAbout our people, we are a multi race country, Arabs are those who you know about, we have Kurds, Lors, Torks, bakhtiari, Afghans, Armani, Ashuri(these are remains of the ancient civilization of Ashur and they are christians) and other races that I can't remember now, there isn't any problem within us, I haven't heard of any racial violence.\nYou have named Ahwas, I am Half Khuzestani, of course from a special tribe there who are no

It should not be allowed nuclear capabilities, and we should all endever to prevent this occurance, because it is not within the intrests of the Western world. I recognise the arguement that Iran is as unstable or backward as the Western press portray it to be, however a neuclear Iranian would enable it to dictate policy in the region to a much larger degree, look at North Korea for example. The West needs a weaker Iran to exploit its natural resources, we should not be apologetic about this fact, we should however be careful how we go about it. As previous events have shown, badly planned interferance is far worse than isolationism.

Well, I think that Iranian women are amongst the world's most beautiful and intelligent. Iranian cuisine is delicious. Iran is a great country, with links to both east and west, and has produced great men such as Omar Khayyam. Islamic Extremism is wrecking this traditionally free-spirited country. Ayatollah Khomeni (the guy who started all this!) wasn't even "Iranian", he was born in Lucknow, India. Iran is screwing itself with its nuke program, cuz it is going to isolate and alienate itself, plus all the educated people are going to flee to the west. Keep it up, Shah Mahmoud !! You are doing the west a favor! aAnd oh please.. TAKE A BATH!!
