    republic means democratic state but if it is based on certain ideology then it cannot run through just majoritarianism and should have some institutions to protect its ideology. so how would you say Iran is not a democratic . just to know your clarification

    With much respect, Mr. Milani, Persians shouldn't use the word salam for greeting. That is an Arabic word. You are a scholar and should be more careful in the usage of Persian words. I am sure the word for greeting is 'dorood; and the word for goodbye is 'bedorood' and not khoda hafez Am I mistaken?

Poor Ferdowsi - were he to be alive - would be shocked to hear that after the passage of so many centuries, there still are such ignorant people like you. Instead of talking trash, get educated. By education you should not mistake it for a degree from a learning institution - if you are capable of understanding what I mean - which is doubtful you do. Vaccine for ignorance is proper education combined with culture.

      All murderes, rapists, as now iran govt. Is. Our iranian women are being sold to the arab countris ,as seigha, lets be frank its simply clear,
      ITS ISLAMIC PROSTITUTION.
      Iran was the 5th most power ful country on earth, all the arab bedwins kissed the hand and shoulder of the king, it kept peace in the middle east for agood 40 years, our toman, 7 for exchange to
      1 $ USA. Now islamic govt.
      40,000 toman to 1us $.
      Islam was to bring togather the bedwins, who lived on grsshoppers, and lizardz, not to take the religion of god by murdering and forcing islam down their throats by force, as chegiz khan did it. Pls wake up, which countries were the force behind removing the shah?

    Hello. If Democracy is what is meant in greek, how will iranians of post Shariat deal with the bahai aspiration of a bahai shariatollah and considering that according to Bahá'u'lláh, islamic shiah Shariatollah is the light of the world: red by yourself:
    The Holy Law (Sharí`ah) of the Messenger of God may be likened to an ocean from which innumerable gulfs branch out. And this is the cause of the weakness of the Sharí`ah of God among the peoples. Until now no-one, not kings nor subjects nor the indigent have understood the reason for this, nor have they appreciated how to regain that power that has vanished and the learning that has fallen away. Thus one gulf is Shí`a, one gulf is Sunni, one Shaykhi, another Shah Ni`matulláhí, one Naqshbandi, another Malámatí, one Jalálí, another Rifá`í, and yet another Khárábátí. Thus are multiplied the innumerable pathways to hell. Thus do the stones weep and the Pen of the All-High laments. Seest thou what has befallen a Sharí`ah whose light illumined the world and whose fire, [that is to say the fire of its love] (not in original persian text and is Momen adding) was the guide of its peoples. Well is it with those who ponder upon these matters and investigate then and are fair in their judgement. Thus did this difference in public rituals become the cause of the shaking of the foundations of the Cause of God (Bahá'u'lláh unpublished)

    Why all those lies about Iran under the rule of the Shah. 75% percent of the Iranian were very poor. Iran could not develop and manufacture even a single bolt let alone tanks ships etc. Iran is now advancing in every field. I believe if Israel had not occupied Palestine all those problems what not have existed. If the Palestinian problem is solved by have two states one for the Jews and one for the Palestinian. I hope that USA and Iran become friends again. I believe USA needs Iran and Iran needs USA.

    The last Shah of Iran was weak and delusional and he had a very sad ending. On the other hand, Islam has poisoned the world particularly the Middle East. Religion and politics must never be mixed. Iranians have a right to the pursuit of happiness free from all oppressive regimes, secular or religious. Free Iran.

      Bro he wasn’t weak cmon he was dying of cancer and virtually no one knew about it, only a select few of his aids. The Shah was wayyyy ahead of his time, and it’s obvious by just looking at iran then and now. All the good that the IR has done (which has been little tbh) like education, all started with the shah. The shah started the educational reform in Iran in the late 50s and early 60s, and it was because of this that the Islamic republic was able to get Iran to virtually universal literacy.
