Posted: Wed Apr 19, 2006 9:36 pm Post subject: Taazi Defined |
|
|
The term Taazi gets uttered by many, including myself. It is unfortunate that many listeners misinterpret what is really meant by this term. They immediately think that it is a term that’s discriminatory and promotes prejudice. They think it is meant to devalue Arabs in general as well as Iranian-Arabs. This is certainly not the case.
Those who love and cherish Iran and our culture have no need to devalue other cultures. Many different cultures exist in our world, and Iranians are quite content to let all the others stand undisturbed. There is no need for us to elevate ourselves by pulling others down. Destroying the culture of others is not the intent of Iranian nationalists.
Some misguided souls even hint that by using such terms, the nationalists are inadvertently working against Iran by not being sensitive to Iran’s religion and ethnic groups. They point out that such an attitude will alienate the minority groups, and specifically the Iranian-Arabic population of Khuzestan. They are quick to demand unity and scream “intolerance.” They need to open their ears, and listen more carefully.
Foremost, the ethnic background and genetic makeup of an individual are unimportant and not at issue here. What’s at issue is one’s allegiance and frame of mind. This was demonstrated by the Iran-Iraq war. Saddam gravely miscalculated the support that his Arabic army would receive from the local Iranian-Arabic population living in Khuzestan. He miscalculated the effect of feeling Iranian to anyone who is a true Iranian. The Iranian-Arabs showed their allegiance and loyalty to Iran. Those who bravely defended Iran’s soil from the invaders with their own lives proved that they were Iranian through and through. They were definitely not Taazis.
Furthermore, Arabs that live in their own countries and mind their own business are not Taazis. The ones who are not waging jihad, or trying to force islam or any other garbage down the throats of their unsuspecting victims are not Taazis.
So then, now that we know who is not a Taazi, the question becomes who is a Taazi? A Taazi is someone who holds the nomadic Bedouin way of life and code of ethics above that of common human decency. A Taazi is someone who is willing to die and kill in the name of Allah. A Taazi is someone who has turned a deaf ear to his own heart and only listens to the call of hate and violence. A Taazi is someone who feels compelled to carry the Bedouin Barbarian Bylaws to ever-expanding spheres of servitude. More than anything else, a Taazi is someone who has discarded his own deep-rooted traditions and culture in place of a God which was the imagination of a pirate. This last person is a traitor-Taazi; the worst kind.
The best examples of traitor-Taazis are the pro-Islamic Republic Taazis. Most claim Iranian heritage and blood. What good is heritage and blood, if they betray that heritage? They claim they are Iranian. However, they are the anti-thesis of Iranians. As I said, one’s genes and ethnic background do not matter.
That’s why calling someone a Taazi is not prejudicial. One is not born a Taazi. One becomes a Taazi by choice. Unfortunately, much brain-washing goes along with that choice. Nonetheless, it is a choice. It is impolite and in poor taste to mock one who is born a certain way. For example, it is very unfair to mock a person’s appearance, low intellect, or ethnicity. However, it is quite fair to mock one who has chosen to be a certain way. One’s religion (or lack thereof), ideology, political conviction, and Taazi-ness are all fair game. Of course, mocking Taazis is what I do best.
Being a Taazi is a frame of mind. Being a Taazi is a reflection of one’s heart. Genetics have nothing to do with it.
Similarly, being an Iranian is a frame of mind. Being an Iranian is a reflection of one’s heart. Genetics have nothing to do with it.
My heart is in Iran, and Iran is in my heart.

Dear Amir,
Thank you for clarification and educating us, I have found your description regarding Taazi very helpful. I wrote statement as below regarding Sept. 11 over three years ago
"At the same time we should recognize there are major differences between primitive Wahhabist Saudi Arabian Islamic culture and Egyptian, Syrian, Lebanese ....... culture. "
and was looking for word to separate those who call themselves Arabs with Mad Islamists, now I know what I should use “Taazi”. Unfortunately Egyptian, Syrian, Lebanese …. did not have someone like Ferdowsi … to save their old rich culture and provide new direction, they need to work hard to differentiate themselves from Taazi and Saudi Arabs . I need to make correction to reduce confusion……
Thanks,
Cyrus |

Very good point, Cyrus.
The Taazis’ handiwork played a role not just in Iran’s history, but in the history of many others as well.
Many civilizations were laid low by the spread of Islam. The Mesopotamian culture which had been integrated into our own Persian one was devastated. The Nubian kingdom, which was once a key player in Africa was demolished. The Carthaginian culture, which was placed into submission by the Romans received the final nail in its coffin from Islam. By far the most tragic was the loss of one of the world’s most amazing civilizations: Egypt. The only thing that matches my concern for what was done to our own Iran is my lament for humanity’s loss of Egypt's magnificent culture.
Fortunately for us, but unfortunately for much of the rest of the world, the Iranian civilization was the only one that recovered itself after Islam’s initial onslaught. Greece was also captured by Moslems and survived, but it occurred many centuries after the initial Islamic wildfire and under the Ottomans, who were quite different than the Bedouin Arabs of the 7th century. Fortunately for Greece, it was able to resist the initial Arabic expansion by utilizing its navy, and using a new secret weapon: “Hygro Pyr,” which in Greek literally means “liquid fire,” denoting “Greek fire.” If circumstances were different then, the fate of Greece would have been potentially very different and it may not have existed today.
Iran did not survive intact, but it did at least survive. It gives me a cold chill whenever I consider how close we came to not rising again, and becoming just another memory in the vast Arabian desert. We were fortunate that certain historical figures saved us from that awful fate. People such as Ferdowsi, the Saffarids, and to a lesser extent the Sammanids.
We must always be vigilant to not lose sight of our past and our true selves. Just because we survived the past assaults on our culture doesn’t mean that we are necessarily safe. We are and will always remain under threat. The threat of forgetting who we are.
Each culture is only one generation away from extinction. Let us never forget that fact. Each of us must make a commitment to ourselves as well as future generations to not allow that extinction to occur during our watch. _________________ I am Dariush the Great King, King of Kings, King of countries containing all kinds of men, King in this great earth far and wide, son of Hystaspes, an Achaemenian, a Persian, son of a Persian, an Aryan, having Aryan lineage

Superb point, I heard similar point in another context from one of the most brilliant mind of our time Dr. Andy Grove Co-founder of Intel.
Dr. Andy Grove wrote: |
Only the Paranoid Survive: Book Preface
Source: http://www.intel.com/pressroom/kits/bios/grove/paranoid.htm
Sooner or later, something fundamental in your business world will change.
I'm often credited with the motto, "Only the paranoid survive." I have no idea when I first said this, but the fact remains that, when it comes to business, I believe in the value of paranoia. Business success contains the seeds of its own destruction. The more successful you are, the more people want a chunk of your business and then another chunk and then another until there is nothing left. I believe that the prime responsibility of a manager is to guard constantly against other people's attacks and to inculcate this guardian attitude in the people under his or her management. |

Richard Nelson Frye
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Frye
Richard Nelson Frye (b. Birmingham, Alabama, 1920 - ) is a distinguished scholar of Central Asian studies, and emeritus Aga Khan Professor of Iranian studies at Harvard University. His professional areas of interest are Iranian philology, and the history of Iran and Central Asia before 1000 CE.
Born to a family of immigrants from Sweden, "Freij" has four children, his second marriage being to an Assyrian scholar from Urmia who teaches at Columbia University. He speaks fluent Russian, German, Arabic, Persian, Pashto, Uzbek, Turkish, and has extensive knowledge of Avestan, Sogdian, and other Central Asian languages and dialects, both extinct and current.

Career
He served with the Office of Strategic Services during WWII. Frye graduated from Harvard university in 1946. He has taught at Harvard from 1948 to 1990. He has also served as faculty, guest lecturer, or visiting scholar at:
Habibiya College in Kabul (1942-44)
Frankfurt University (1959-60)
Hamburg University (1968-69)
Pahlavi University of Shiraz (1970-76)
University of Tajikistan (1990-92).
Professor Frye founded the Center for Middle Eastern Studies at Harvard, the first Iranian studies program in America. He also served as Director of the Asia Institute in Shiraz (1970-1975), was on the Board of Trustees of the Pahlavi University at Shiraz (1974-7 , and Chairman, Committee on Inner Asian Studies, at Harvard (1983-89), and as Editor of the Bulletin of the Asia Institute (1970-1975 and 1987-99).

Frye in debate with a cleric in Shiraz, 1992.
A young Frye and Roman Ghirshman, Susa, 1966.

Among Frye's students, one can mention Annemarie Schimmel, Oleg Grabar[1], Frank Huddle (US Ambassador to Tajikistan), John Limbert ([2], former faculty member at Shiraz University), and Michael Chrichton, whose Hollywood blockbuster The 13th Warrior is loosely based on Frye's translation of Ibn Fadlan's account of his travels up the river Volga. (Greater Iran, p.90, 150)
Frye was also directly responsible for inviting Iranian scholars as distinguished visiting fellows to Harvard University, under a fellowship program initiated by Henry Kissinger. Examples of such guests include Mehdi Haeri Yazdi (1923–1999), Sadegh Choubak, Jalal al Ahmad, and others. (Greater Iran, p.103,174)
[edit]
Frye as proponent of Persian culture
House of Ghavam, where the famous Shiraz University Asia Institute was founded. Frye headed the institute during the 1970s.Frye felt that Persian civilization was under-appreciated by other Muslims, and Arab Muslims in particular. Frye wrote:
"Arabs no longer understand the role of Iran and the Persian language in the formation of Islamic culture. Perhaps they wish to forget the past, but in so doing they remove the bases of their own spiritual, moral and cultural being…without the heritage of the past and a healthy respect for it…there is little chance for stability and proper growth."
(R. N. Frye, The Golden Age of Persia, London: Butler & Tanner Ltd., 1989, page 236)
Iranians responded enthusiastically to his appreciation.
In August 1953, shortly before Mosaddegh's fall, the prominent Iranian linguist Ali Akbar Dehkhoda gave Frye the title (laqab): "Irandoost" (meaning "a friend of Iran").(Greater Iran, p.142)
A ceremony was held in Iran on June 27, 2004 to pay tribute to the six-decade endeavors of Professor Frye on his lifetime contribution to Iranology, research work on the Persian language, and the history and culture of Iran.
In his will, Professor Frye has wished to be buried next to Zayandeh-rud in Isfahan. Two other American Iranologists, Arthur Pope and Phyllis Ackerman, are already buried there.

Quotes by Frye
In a March 2005 lecture at UCLA, Professor Frye made the point that Iranians need to learn how to survive as minorities overseas and how to protect their identity.
The factual accuracy of this section is disputed. Please view the article's talk page.
The following is also attributed to him, originating from the same lecture [3] (please verify the credibility of this source):
The culture is what is important about Iran.
Aryans believed in a cyclical view, like plants and trees, dying and coming back, rebirth and change of things, while Semites believed in a linear view; it is a time straight ahead to the end.
Iranians believe in cycles and continuity.
Iran is the classical land of dualism.
A contribution of Iran is Secular law, before them, law and religion were one. The Hakhamanesh brought universal and secular law not related of the locals.
The gate of inquiry should always remain open, this is Shia'ism.
If Sistani behaves like an Iranian and not an Arab, Iraq will be secular.
We have gone back to the middle ages of religious wars.
Iranians need to learn how to survive as minorities overseas and how to protect their identity.
Iranian poetry is world poetry, no one is better than the Iranian poets.
Iran is an island, in which there is no religious war.

Other quotes
Here is a quote from F. Rosenthal's translation of Ibn Khaldun's work, The Muqaddimah, which Richard Frye quoted in one of his own works:
"…It is a remarkable fact that, with few exceptions, most Muslim scholars…in the intellectual sciences have been non-Arabs…thus the founders of grammar were Sibawayh and after him, al-Farisi and Az-Zajjaj. All of them were of Persian descent…they invented rules of (Arabic) grammar…great jurists were Persians… only the Persians engaged in the task of preserving knowledge and writing systematic scholarly works. Thus the truth of the statement of the Prophet becomes apparent, 'If learning were suspended in the highest parts of heaven the Persians would attain it' …The intellectual sciences were also the preserve of the Persians, left alone by the Arabs, who did not cultivate them…as was the case with all crafts…This situation continued in the cities as long as the Persians and Persian countries, Iraq, Khorasan, and Transoxiana (modern Central Asia), retained their sedentary culture". The Muqaddimah, Translated by F. Rosenthal (III, pp. 311-15, 271-4 [Arabic]; R.N. Frye (p.91)

|

Samples Of TAAZI Cruelty Through Out History:
No one group of people are more familiar with the concept of TAAZI terrorism in the name of God and Islam than the Iranians, who for many years have been the biggest victims of these TAAZI Islamic Mafia terrorists. Persia or Iran has been invaded twice by TAAZI Islamic Mafia barbarian invaders.
1) First Invasion By Taazi
The First Invasion of Iran by TAAZI happened approximately 1400 years ago by TAAZI Arabia's Islamic barbarians, who in the name of God, Brotherhood and Equality, aimed to conquer and plunder. We have learned that there is a striking similarity between the WTC Terrorist attack and the burning of Tees-fun library by primitive Islamic fanatic invaders. 1400 years ago, a great collection of books was kept in the Persian empire's Library at Tees-fun, which was the first or second biggest center of art, literature, and science in the world. This vast collection of books was set ablaze and destroyed by TAAZI Arabian Invaders, setting the World's clock back by at least 400 years. The TAAZI Saudi Arabian terrorists who murdered thousands on September 11th, who were still living their dream of multiple wives and barbarically primitive ideas, are shockingly similar to the barbarians who invaded Persia with the slogan of brotherhood and equality, but delivered only hate, burning, stealing, raping of women (non-believers) and forced marriage in the name of God and Islam.
According to the book, THE IRANIANS PERSIA, ISLAM AND THE SOUL OF A NATION by Sandra McKay " A tour de force of intellectual comprehension, summary, and balance." -- Washington Times Pg 46.
In 638, the vaulted palace at Ctesiphon, the physical embodiment of late Sassanian art and knowledge, fell to the Arabs. Its fabulous prizes dazzled the poor, unlearned tribesmen of the Arabian Peninsula. A life-sized camel crafted of silver and a golden horse with emerald teeth and a garland of rubies draped around its neck were only two among the hundreds of objects of art that passed from the cultured hands of the Sassanians into the rough, callused hands of Arab warriors. The incredible carpet, "Spring of Khosrow," went to Mecca where Islam's religious leaders, disdainful of material possessions, cut it into pieces. The destruction wreaked by the ignorant Arabs went on. The massive libraries so carefully collected by the Sassanian kings scattered in the capricious wind of the Arab edict:
If the books herein are in accord with Islam,
then we don't need them.
If the books herein are not in accord with Islam,
then they are kafir (of the infidel)"
2) The Cypress of Zoroaster Crime By TAAZI
http://activistchat.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=26504#26504
When the barbarian TAAZI invaded Iran, it is said that they cut down a very old Cypress tree that according to legend, had been planted by Zarathustra himself.
Bayhaqi has written that when the cypress tree was felled, earth tremors were felt, water springs and buildings were severely damaged, and all night long all kinds of birds gathered, so that the sky was filled, and raised such a loud wail in their own voices that people were astonished.
Bayhaqi has also left behind figures concerning the costs of felling and transporting the tree. According to these, felling and transporting it from Kashmar to Ja’fariya cost 500,000 dirhams and 300 camels were used to carry its pieces. Despite these expenses and efforts, Al-Mutavakkal never saw Zoroaster’s cypress tree. When it was only one stage away from Ja’fariyah, Al-Mutavakkal was assassinated by his slaves. Aboltayb the carpenter and the carriers of the tree also met death in different ways. According to Bayhaqi, the tree of Zoroaster was felled in AD 846 and it had been planted 1405 years earlier. On the basis of these figures, it was planted around 550 before BC. This date differs by only 33 years with the Zoroastrians’ traditional date, because Zoroaster was born in 660 BC and was martyred in 583 BC, at the age of 77. The cypress tree of Zoroaster was never forgotten by the Iranians. On the contrary, its memory grew ever stronger with the passage of time and poets and artists kept depicting it in their works.
3) Cinema Rex, The Auschwitz of Abadan
Source URL:
http://activistchat.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=24292#24292
On August 19,1978, in the southern city of Abadan, on the order of Ali Khamenei (Iran’s supreme leader) Cinema Rex was set ablaze by Islamic extremist in order to incite riots by blaming it on the Shah of Iran.
This was the most horrific incident of the 1978/79 revolution in Iran, in which according to the official figures 377 people were burnt alive, Unofficially the figures ran as high as six to seven hundred people.
After the revolution in 1979, it was discovered that the crime was committed by the revolutionaries to fuel the publics’ anger.
Hossein Boroujerdi, one of the three people who delivered the chemical fuel to the city identifies Ali Khamenei (Iran’s supreme leader) as the person who provided them with the chemicals. This information is documented in Boroujerdi’s book by the title of “Behind The Islamic Revolution’s curtains, Confessions OF Hossein Boroujerdi” ISBN 3-93524966-7. It is time to tell the story.

4) The Second Invasion of Taazi Islam
Did we ignore TAAZI Saudi Arabian Islamic fanatics , repressive TAAZI clerical Mafia regime in Iran, TAAZI Talban regime and other religious fanatics for too long?
The Second Invasion of Taazi Islam was by Khomeni along with British blessing with the goal to plunder Iran's resources. Khomeni and his team of SS Clergymen (Khameni, Rafsanjani, Khatami ....) succeeded with the slogan of freedom, liberty and free oil for all, in deceiving the masses with the help of BBC Farsi. Khomeni's profile (described in detail by Dr. Masud Ansari's Book: 67 Massacre) is very similar to that of Saddam Hussein. Khomeni, the most deceitful British TAAZI would never have been able to deceive the Iranian people without the help and blessing of the complex British and French advisors, President Carter as well as their secret services and they are equally responsible for Iran's disaster. As a result of this second invasion by TAAZI fanatic Islam, over the last two decades, Iran has suffered over 1 million war casualties, the destruction of many cities, thousands of political executions and prisoners, the rape and execution of young girls in prison, the stoning of women, the loss of social freedoms, the theft of billions of dollars by SS Clergymen and his terror TAAZI Mafia gangs, a massive exodus of Iranian refugees throughout the world, the hostage crisis, and the demise of a 200 year old friendship between Iran and US, reducing Iran's status from most advanced developing country with countless contributions to world history not to mention founding the first declaration of human rights, to the ugly International center for TAAZI Islamic Terrorist Mafia Support Headquarters! Today, Iranians throughout the world are making their voices heard, from every corner of Iran and from every countries abroad, the Iranian people are telling the world they no longer need TAAZI Islam and the TAAZI Mullahs.
The repressive TAAZI Mafia clerical dictatorship regime in Iran is based on Animal Farm Novel by George Orwell. "We pigs (Islamic Clerical Mafia regime in Iran and their supporters Britain, France, German governments) are brainworkers. The whole management and organization of the farm depend on us. Day and night, we are watching over your welfare. It is for your sake that we drink that milk and eat those apples." While this swinish brotherhood sells out the revolution, cynically editing the Seven Commandments to excuse their violence and greed, everyone once again left hungry and exhausted, no better off than in the days when humans ran the farm. "
All Iranian people are sick and tired of TAAZI Islamic Mafia regime interfering with every aspect of their life both inside and outside their home and defining their political system. The people of Iran are saying Goodbye to Islam as a system of government, Goodbye to TAAZI Terror Mafia, Goodbye to TAAZI Thieves, Goodbye to TAAZI Hate, Goodbye to the TAAZI Mullahs of Arabia occupation, Goodbye to Traitors, Goodbye to Enemies of Peace and Harmony among all Civilizations, Goodbye to the TAAZI British Government Exploitation Machine who are the greatest enemies of developing countries with a recorded 300 years of plotting, plundering and political terror against Iranian freedom lovers and others. British people and their politicians are in the position to force British government and secret societies to open all these files for public education, historian review, British courts and stop such TAAZI evil acts in future by their government officials and secret societies in the name of their National Interest. This can not happen unless the British public awareness increases.
5) TAAZI Afghan Taliban Crime
World did too little, too late to save Buddhas...

What happened next was Sept. 11 by the same type of TAAZI Islamists group. It is very sad when the Free World leaders are ignoring the danger. http://activistchat.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=1750#1750
6) SEPT 11 By Taazi
For avoiding SEPT 11 has the US officials in past 27 years as the only progressive freedom-loving Super Power with great contributions to liberty of many countries in the world made the same mistakes as Persian Sassanian Empire ?
Most recently, TAAZI Wahhabist Saudi Arabian fanatics, in the guise of friendship, have entered the US and plotted against innocent civilians in the Land of the Free and Home of the Brave. Unfortunately, history has shown us that this is the deceitful nature of primitive TAAZI from Wahhabist Saudi Arabian culture, which has not been changed for centuries for many different reasons. According to many US sources it has become clear that Saudi Arabia is the main financier of the TAAZI Wahhabist doctrine of global jihad against non-believers (terrorism) and they have used Mosques and Madrasas everywhere to brainwash innocent poor children from the age of 5 with extreme hate for their backward, and primitive objectives. Unfortunately Dr. Zbigniew Brzezinski, Jack Straw and elements of British government supported the TAAZI Wahhabist doctrine and Islamic fanatics as a primitive system of government from early 1979.

What Is "War On TAAZI"?
The "War On TAAZI" has multiple dimensions and we have to fight and win in all dimensions and eradicate this Cancer from its roots in Iranian culture and society otherwise our future generation face it again and repeat the mistakes in some other forms. Increasing our awareness in all dimensions is the key to our future success for establishing Free Society, and Secular democracy.
War On TAAZI = FREE Iran + Free Society + Secular Democracy +
War On Terror + Destruction Of Taazi Forces Occupying Iran +
Fight All Aspects Of Taazi Culture

This is the first time I have heard this word. I am going to have to go to Google and see what else I can find out about it. Does the son of the Shah really have any chance of organizing an overthrow of the regime? Do you know if the CIA is presently in Iran? Why hasn't there been an internal overthrow already? I have also been visiting the site: www.amilimani.com. But for the past few years all I've been reading on these sites is words. Nobody wants the people of Iran to be hurt if - G-d forbid - some country (the U.S.? Israel?) feels it is necessary to attack Iran because Iran is coming closer to nuclear capability. The people of Iran have to do it themselves. |

Dear Haya: The answer to your first question is "yes", but only if the EU & the world support him..i.e. Brits stop selling arms to the reg-heads of Iran, EU stop their greedy economic gains by dealing with iri, treat this regime like the way they did in So. Africa. The answer to your second question is No, as far as I know there is no CIA in Iran. The answer to your third question, why there hasn't been an internal overthrow of iri; is, for the same reason the Chinese, the Cuban, the North Korean & other nations under despotic regimes can't do it... Iraninans have tried, the only result they get is being murdered and tortured by these Taazi ragheads. They can only do it if there is social & economic support from the US and her true allies (not EU, becasue they will not support anything that may economically hurt them) perhaps Eastern European countries, Japan, Israel, Italy..etc. |

Thank you for your response. I'm curious - are you in Iran at the moment? Are you Iranian? What are the Iranians outside Iran doing to help? What percentage of Iranians want regime change? _____ young people (which I understand are the majority of the population) _____ middle aged and _____ those over 50 (who remember the time of the Shah). And, last, are there Iranians outside Iran who want to keep the current regime and what affect do they have? Thank you very much. |

First, let me ask you this; do you speak Persian??
No, I am not in Iran, if I were in Iran I would not be able to access this website. Most political sites in Iran are blocked so no one can access them, these sites are reported to iri by the Taazi agents in the US & Europe. The answer to your next question is Yes. Next question regarding Iranians outside of Iran...I am embarrassed to say only about 10% of Iranians are politically active. This is also a downfall of Iranians, with so many of them (especially in California) millionaires; they have very little, or no interest in their motherland. If even 50% of my compatriots will join in with their financial resources, and help out, we would have been a lot more successful. The answer to your next question is 99% of Iranians would like to see a regime change. The answer to your last question is Yes! The regime that has occupied Iran is Hezbollah, if you are from Israel you would know what I mean. They have all kinds of connections and lobbyists and organizations that represent & defend them. Usually they call themselves as "experts", "professors", "Drs", etc.etc. They go to different universities and have pro-regime lectures! BBC is especially very receptive to this regimes' lobbyists and their propaganda. I can name 4-5 well known organizations in the US that are sponsored by the terrorist regime in Iran & well organized. |

Actually, I live in Israel and am from the U.S. originally. Someone really ought to organize the Iranians in the U.S. the same way that there are Jewish organizations that raise money. It's a shame that this hasn't been done up to now. It could be called the UIA (United Iranian Appeal) similar to the UJA (United Jewish Appeal). Also, there MUST be Iranian lobbying done on Capitol Hill on behalf of a free Iran. All you need to do is - initially - contact one or two rich, influential Iranians to get the ball rolling. If you don't take that first step, you will never know what can happen. |
