what is your opinion about Iranians?
141475
Iranian peoples are those ethnic groups who speak an Iranian language, in which case Iranian is an over-arching term for various peoples and their languages, many of whom share a common descent from a particular branch of the ancient Aryans (Iranians), as discerned from the relationship between their languages, as well as between some of their other inherited core cultural traits. The term is derived from the etymological term Iran which is synonymous with Aryan, and does not have an exclusive meaning that is only applicable to either the state of Iran or the Persian people. The term Iranian or Iranian people is similar, in its usage, to the term Germanic, for example, which includes various peoples who happen to share related Germanic languages such as German, English, and Dutch. This type of usage can be applied in numerous other instances including the Slavic peoples category that includes Russians, Serbo-Croatians, and Poles. Thus, along these lines the Iranian peoples include not only the Persians/Tajiks of Iran, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan, but also the Pashtuns, Kurds, Ossetians, Baluchis, and other smaller groups.

As an Iranian , I must say that the Iranian people wouldn't mind, they have had a rough time under a radical Islamic regime and want freedom and I think that the invasion of Iraq with all its faults has been very helpful to the Iraqi nation and has also had a good effect on  the u.s economy ( the strengthening of the dollar against other currencies), however Iran is 3 times the size of Iraq and has a better defense than most middle eastern countries and a war can become very Bloody and cause great losses of Life. If only all countries possessed democracy  and freedom, we would not have seen tragedy's like 9/11 or the Iraq- U.s war!

1.Iranian people have one of the most anciant cultures in the whole world,they have shown bravery & union through times.\n\n2.the biggest thing that weakens a country is a majaroty of people who don't THINK very well.(It's a general quote) I hope everyone in every country considers that.\n\n3.I wish world the Peace.It is in peace that we can develop & find a way toward happyness.

I don't know much about it except what's in the media. I know they're on Israel and the USA's sh*t list right now. I have heard that the Iranians are very educated people and for being a country in the middle east, Iran is pretty well to do. When I was about 12 years old I had a pen pal from Iran who wrote in perfect English and sent me beautiful postcards from there. The mail was always ripped open before it got delivered to me though like someone was checking it. I have nothing against the Iranian people or their country. My experience with the ones I met have been very pleasant.

The Iranians I have met have been very friendly and good people. Unfortunately, they are ruled by evil mullahs preaching hate. They are oppressed by the evil theocracy that took over after the Shah was deposed, and suffer without freedom or liberty.\n\nBut, except for some of us, nobody - not the UN, not the EU not the Democrats - give a rat's tail about the people of Iran. They're too busy hating Bush, hating Israel and hating the USA to actually care about anybody.

This question is too general.  If someone asked "Do you believe Americans are terrorists ?" and the only Americans you knew of, in depth, were Timothy McVeigh or Ted Kaczynski, your logical answer would be "Yes".\n\nIranians, as in *the Iranian people*, are not terrorists.  The country of Iran most likely harbors Iranian citizens who are terrorists, as most countries in the world harbor citizens who are terrorists.\n\nIs Iran a terrorist state ? (i.e. the government sanctions terrorists and acts of terrorism) Maybe, maybe not. It depends on how you define "acts of terrorism".  In the Middle East and throughout the world, many people feel that the U.S.'s invasion of Iraq was an act of terrorism, especially as 30,000 Iraqi citizens have been killed since the commencement of hostilities in March 2003. Does that make the U.S. a "terrorist state" ? To many people, Yes.

Iranians are not Arabs, but [most] are Islamic.\nIndonesians are not Arabs, but many are Islamic.\nAmericans are...well we are mutts, and some are Islamic.

I am an American citizen that DID vote for Bush. As far as most Americans are concerned, Iranian citizens need to get THEIR leaders to calm down and TALK. We understand you are very devoted to your faith, but not EVERYONE wishes to live in that kind of society. This is a BIG world and we ALL need to live here. How about showing us why some call Islam the "Religion Of Peace". PLEASE?

You speak in generalities which can never lead to a true answer.\nI don't think Iranians are terrorists. I think that in this world, there are bad people doing bad things and they are of all nationalities, colors, creed, race and religions.\n\nAny one who is an extremist is dangerous to others. This is the only generality I could ever agree with.

Dear friend \nThey never answer you without hostile as vessels leak what they hold before this i always thought American people are very nice , kind and respectable as my bf was so but when i came here in this hell i saw he was just an exception most of the American or west people are not the same they dont seem to be fair enough even they are not respectable \nthey lie insult and cheat ...just read their Q&A in here tell me could a respectable person talk so? I wonder what a culture they have ? What kind of human  they are ?\napart of all nonsense about iran and iranian that they have written in here apart of politics and ... i m sure you know well as a member of iranian people that how much our people respect to foreign when they are coming to our country u might see over and over the way they treat with foreign in our country  you know well about their hospitablity...now just read their words toward our people what do you think about them? what do you expect from them? ohh even i feel shame instead of them when i read their statement about iran and iranian people what we must expect from such a people ?\ngenerosity ?fair ?humanity ?\nthey let to themselves to take decision instead of us even they let to themselves to talk about changing our government or president its funny !!\ni m not saying that i m agree with all happened in our country maybe there are some wrongs but its not their business\neven if some thing went wrong its us who must take decsion for ourselves not any one from another country i dont think the people who intervene in internal affairs of a country are respectable \n\nyou see even in here some of them trying to decline the certain right of Iran for use of nuclear technology with illegal reason like this one :\nThe IAEA has ordered Iran to stop.Have they?\n\nwhy they think we must stop our peaceful nuclear activites ?\nOfcourse Iranian scientist managed to achieve nuclear technology while the country was under sanctions iran still ready to respect the decision of the international bodies if they respect irans legal right for the peaceful use of nuclear technology \nHOW EVER WE WILL NOT REGARD THESE DECISION S AS VAILD IF THEY DENY US OUR RIGHT \nhow you can complain of peaceful nuclear activities just for scientific research when your owen country have weapon nuclear ? how you can base your reason just on a statement of our president that Israel must wipe from map and say Iranian are terroist yet he doesnt committed to it but \nWhat a bout the killing of so much innocence people in Iraq and Afghanistan due to your government actions? Do you approve it? Why don’t you prevent that? Could I scold all American people for that? Could I call all of them as a terrorist? \nthey cant decline the certain right of Iran for use of nuclear technology base on ( Iranian president words about Israel )So what about the April 22 edition of the Israel daily Harretz quoted saying that the Mossad is plotting to assassinate Irainian president Mohmud Ahmadinejad?\nObviously , when both united states and its western allies encourage Israel to commit such crimes and to intensify its sponsored terrorism , we can not expect to see global terrorism eradicated . violence alwasys begets violence.\nRight now you see they are nt agree that a country like Iran have nuclear technology for providing fuel electricity plants medical and agricultural usage only.\nthe answer is obvious Well dont you think if they hadnt distorted the standard of peacful purposes before or they had the standard of good and bad now they hadnt problem with peacful nuclear activities of Iran ? \nif you read American history books you will note that America dropped atomics bombs on Japons two cities\nHiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945 for ending the war and brining peace to the that war torn country so as claimed by Harry s. truman , the u.s. president , nuclear weapons could be used for peacful purposes too !!\nWest can not impose wrong decisions on Iran under UN cov

A long, fantastic history...mucked up by the British when they took over the dismantling of the Ottoman Empire (after WW1, I think?) and installed a regency called the Shah.  Shia Islam predominates and the country is (effectively) run on religious grounds by a council of Ayatollahs.  It has a President who is insensitive to the outside world's viewpoint (to put it mildly) and it is currently awaiting the outcome of the UN Security Council's deliberation on its reluctance to allow the Atomic Energy Authority full and free access to its nuclear program, ostensibly for power.  Those who are mistrustful of it reckon that Iran is trying to make nuclear weapons which, given it's current President's comments on Israel, is understandable if (possibly) incorrect.\n\nDo I get Best Answer?

Well, now I know it's the Iranian new years eve. \n\nWhy only happy new years to Iranians? You don't wish a happy new year to the rest of us? I see how it is.

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!!

Iran is a country with alot of good people. There are good people everywhere, not all of them believe in their dictator. I am sorry that they are all stereotyped. Look at America, only 33 percent of us like our stupid president! Yet we are ALL hated for him. Very sad.
