The following is a translation of events as described by a “student”, a fellow participant of the UK Embassy raid in Tehran as told to snn.ir, a state media outlet. What seems clear to me is that the in-fighting between the Iranian fascist uber-elite is a cause of this mess, but I wouldn’t doubt that [...]

Iranian State media is using the “student” label to address the hooligans who stormed the UK embassy earlier today. I can’t help but laugh at the irony of the situation. Ever since the election in Iran, the protesters (many of them REAL students) were labelled “hooligans”, “thugs” and “goons” by state media and now those [...]

I must have been around 5 the year Khomeini died. And yet, I vividly remember the huge black cloth put up by the mosque in our neighborhood, the look of grief I saw everywhere. I had grown up watching Khomeini before the afternoon children’s program, before the nightly news my grandfather watched. His image splattered [...]

… And Iran So by now you’ve heard of the beautiful Lake Oroomiyeh shrinking … The historic SioSeh Pol breaking … Grand Persepolis going under water. Just recently a historic church in the province of Kerman was demolished … and weeks before that another ancient square in Kerman was demolished as well. Before long, all [...]

As a likely UN vote on Palestine (and a subsequent US veto) becomes more imminent … On a recent expedition at Mehrnews, the – once – excellent state news and photo website, I was surprised to find page after page of photos of Palestine-related events in Tehran and the provinces. There is usually one at [...]

I ask myself this question every year, right about now, from a month before … maybe up until a month later, maybe two, or three or four … until the days join one another in a constant rotating loop and I can’t really tell which June 12th it is and which one is coming. But [...]

Mousavi and now Karoubi have been under siege – a blockade – on their homes for weeks (and days) respectively. Their daughters have written a letter, petrified for their parents’ well being: the lights in the house never turn on. Who knows where they really are? Or what they’re being fed? What treatment they are [...]

FarceNews, the ultra orthodox Ahmadinejad news outlet has a very interesting article today. This is the same source that has been printing article after article about the “basiji” and “martyr” Sane’ Jaleh. Among their other headlines today: “the sedition of 2009 has made violent crime and human trafficking skyrocket.” I thought it would be wise [...]

I was watching this documentary on Al Jazeera’s People & Power about a group of Egyptian activists who have been preparing for nonviolent protest months before the February revolution: Of course, I couldn’t help but compare their situation to Iran, when actions of this sort would never be possible. (Ahmed would have been imprisoned and [...]

It’s like we are back to June 2009. Baz ham delam miyad too dahnam every second of the day [as if my heart is going to pop out of chest] … all over again. I don’t want to write in such a state, because I truly don’t know what will come out of it. I [...]

I’ve heard all my life: “we can’t take any more of this, it’s been 20 years!” … “25 years!” … “30 years!” … And now, 32. Perhaps it is the devoutly cynic in me, but I fear that the worse is yet to come. This isn’t a note on the perils and predicaments of political [...]

Illustration: Savile Lumley’s 1915 war propaganda poster suggesting how easy it would be to help in the fight. —————————————— Watching IRIB [state TV] these days is quite soul wrenching – even more than the usual. But I follow them anyways, just to have a better grasp of what they are thinking, and what they are [...]

As I contemplate the loss of life, I can’t help but also mourn the loss of so many things that meant so much in this old, exhausted city: the death of art, music, books, … Everything that lived on so strongly, despite the crusades. They are not dead, but buried deep within, and will be, [...]

The execution binge will not stop. In the meantime, yesterday, the Iranian foreign ministry warned the Egyptian authorities against “using force against the protesters.”

Like many of you, I have been watching, reading and devouring anything Tunisian/Egyptian/Palestine/Middle Eastern in the past few days. I can’t speak for all Iranians, I can only speak for myself: I don’t mean to compare anything with anything case by case. I don’t mean to compare the situation in Cairo right now to that [...]

My first conversation at the United Nations: Chief: your name … where are you from? Pedestrian: I’m Iranian, though my name, it’s not a Persian word. Chief: Aaaah! That beautiful place, Iran! I used to visit over the mountains when I was stationed in Iraq. Such a beautiful place, such amazing food! Pedestrian: Yes, I certainly [...]
