  • Nice video!!! As an American myself, you can't imagine how disgusted I am with the way things are. I used to be brainwashed by the U.S media too about Iran. But then I also decided to look for myself about it. And while I haven't been there yet, because of money problems, I have sought out and met Iranians who taught me about their beautiful country. One of those Iranians is now my girlfriend, and insha'allah will soon be my wife. So i've found two great things by looking for myself.

    Viva Iran!

  • Thanks for your comment ComradeLenin1289 ! Thanks or not having prejudice ! I wish all western people could live without prejudice and can find what is righ or wrong among the usually biased information on western media !

  • GREAT VIDEO MAN.

  • Thank you for watching. You are kindly invited to watch the updated version in my channel.

  • Do you have any idea how many times I have watched your old version maybe a 100X no joke, I love it, it is so beautiful. I want to get to know you also why you went to Iran and how to met some of the people there. Truly amazing video, I will let you know soon if the newer one is better. I love the all parts of the video, especially when you show the troops in the 70s getting ready for war it was truly historical, and how you show that the country that I live in wants to sell us GARBAGE.Thanks

  • Thank you so much for your kind comments. Indeed I see very few tourists who go to Iran really get in depth with this nation, and regard all heroes of it and its recent history as religious fanatism, when in reality it contains the beauty of what Iran represents in this world in the best way.

  • I wish to visit Iran one day.

    Struggle between Nations to become superpowers has isolated Mankind from one another.

  • Iran did not fight to become a superpower. Iran fought for achieving genuine independence, and all the plots of their enemies to undermine this is what ended up turning them into a world power.

  • yup i agree.

    I was referring towards other nations like U.S and Russia - the biggest arm exporters in the world now Israel is also in the race.

  • @germanicus24 Does homeland security know of your activities here

  • @Ulrieka4U No, but you can always give them a call. After all, how evil my videos are that I am showing an alternative view on Iran, uh? I guess Guantanamo is the least I deserve for daring to express myself Lol.

  • i wpould trust iran with nukes rather than america or the uk were i live...

  • Thanks for the video..it is very moving

  • You are kindly invited to watch the updated version I made which you can see in my channel's profile (Iran 2009 | Decide for yourself).

    Kind regards from Chile, and many thanks for watching.

  • You show 4 or 5 vulgar images and that is what America is to you.There was plenty of pretty images of Iran,Iran has some great people,some of the most intelligent in the world.I know about 25 Iranians here in America.None of them think that Ahmadinejad is good for their country.Will there be another election?Democracy does not have to be like ours,but Muslim can not rule the world

    and make me pray to the east or kill me because I do not believe in Allah or the Koran or half the Bible.

  • 1) Who said those images represented what America is for me? It is not my fault that you feel so identified with them that you think of such a thing. I admire America, the West and its values. I detest the hijacked civilization where we now live, and have no interest in moderating such view.

  • 2) Wow, Iranian runaways who live in the US, get their views about Iran from the same media as Americans think Ahmadinejad is evil. Would you blame me if I couldnt care any less what more Americans have to say about a country of which they are informed via biased sources? And you, someone who hasnt even cared to see Iran for himself, from his comfortable couch in America judging a country he doesnt even know, but heard of from third people's accounts. Way to go in your quest for reality really.

  • 3) Every single term in Iran democratic elections are held. The only ones boycotting the Iranian elections are reformists like your mates who call people not to vote. Why do they then blame the government of electoral bias when they themselves pledge alliance to the Californian TV stations which call them not to vote? You want them to win without voting? There will be an election this year you silly propagandist...

  • 4) Oh yes, Iranians will surely kill you because you dont believe in God. That is why I am still alive, not having a religion myself, and having been surrounded by crowds of hundreds of thousands of Iranians gathered at Azadi square in Tehran listening to their president and chanting "Down with Israel", "Down with America" (their political systems). Do you even mind visiting Iran before parroting what others tell you about it? I have been there, and have no need for your political libels.

  • How the hell can the most powerful nation in the world only be led by some corrupt corporations? If that was true there would have been mass demonstrations in the US. Very small probability that the US is controlled by hijacked corporations if you ask me. A government fully controlled by a hijacked corporation as government wouldn't last many days in the states my friend :P Obama made a nice impression to me, and I quite don't believe that he's a badass too.

  • If the US is not ruled by corporations, and there would be mass demonstrations, can you explain this issue to me?

    The US and Canada banned asbestos, a toxic material known to cause death to 10,000 people every-single-year in the US alone, few years ago.

  • Asbestos however came back. Did Americans changed their minds and welcomed the idea of dying for the profits of asbestos companies? Maybe you should ask the multi billionaire corporations whose profits really rule the lives and liberty of the American people.

    We are talking about something as trivial as asbestos. Do you even begin to imagine how it gets when we deal with oil profits, military strategies or things which are really key to an important number of companies and political lobbies?

  • Actually World Public Opinion also asked that question to the American people, which differ with your Norwegian perceptions:

    "Is your government run by a few big interests or the benefit of the people? (% agreement)"

    United States: 80 (few big interests), 19 (benefit of people)

    Do they demonstrate in masses in spite of this? I doubt it. It would be too much trouble to get out of house while they are about to broadcast another Simpsons episode.

  • It doesnt matter what you believe about Obama. Regardless of this he will continue the policies of the previous US administrations and electing Israeli Defense Force representatives to take care of his foreign affairs as he has already done actually.

    Bush won the 2000 elections campaigning on humble foreign policy and no nation building (since Clinton had done terrible things to Iraq). I am sure Obama supporters will know what Bush supporters back then felt like.

  • ok I'm sorry for saying my opinion about chile then, as I know nothing about it... After all the comments I've read by you, it sounds like you look quite bad at the US, in fact very bad. What about US in the last world war? you think they were as bad as they are now 65 years ago?

  • Im sorry if that sounded harsh, but my point is that we (as Im also a Westerner who used to think in absolutist terms on how to build societies) must at least humbly admit ignorance on the mechanisms of other nations, and that judging without such consideration can only result in twisted inter civilizations translations.

    No, you are wrong. I dont look bad on the US. Something which Iranians taught me is that the US government couldnt be any less representative of what the US really stands for.

  • as a Chillean i quess u know what the us did to Allende that was the first documentary i've seen on tv to think that even baby's milk powdersales multiplies 10 fold shows u how undernusixhed the poor were in chilie living in swamps as all other land was owned by the rich paying have their wages for clean drinking water many with 100-s square miles of land n the landless were not officially regognised that they even exizted living in conditions worse than pigstiles all for preofit of the elite

  • I sincerely advice you to stop taking your reality from the TV screen.

    Kind regards,

    Germán

  • The US are actually founded on the basis of non interventionism, and in the teachings of dealing and being friends with all other nations. True American patriots who defend these constitutional perspectives are great people, who would have never allowed something like the Iraq war if it had been up to them. The problem is America is not ruled by Americans or for Americans, but by hijacked by corporations for their own profits and lobbies of the sort.

  • What I am saying is yes there should be some kind of punishment, but execution?! what the hell is wrong with their mind??? If I was to execute a teenager he/she would have had to trigger some kind of a world war. And for the incident in Chile, they should rather have punishments for the responsible persons for these children (in most cases the parents). Execution as penalty is for me a giant step away from simple humanity.

  • Nobody asked you to change your mind. Again you are very naive thinking the problem could be solved in Chile, a country you have no info about, by doing what you claim. You dont know what the reality is like in other places, what the culture is like, and none of us has the right to homogenize culturally other nations just because we differ in opinion, and think we know better what is best for their systems. It is not like they execute 16 years old for stealing, we are talking about murderer.

  • Numbers are so important in terms of age because a not fully grown up human being is (also scientifically) in many cases acting totally different. For instance the difference between being 14-16 is a loooooooot bigger than difference between 24-26.

  • So a 16 years old who carries a weapon and runs away from home, who has the guts to murder a human, doesnt know or understand that murdering humans is a punishable crime? You dont need to graduate to assess the subject properly.

    And again, I am not telling you to agree with it or not, but it is their culture, and also biologically people in Iran are different since their lives and organic society are dramatically different to ours, and we shouldnt judge them under such an absolutist frame.

  • oooh dude I am very sure I am correct in this case :P Let me say that I personally am against executions... executions of people under 18 years is to me.. well.. it is unforgiveable. Numbers are very important in terms of age. Extremely important. A 16 year old girl can look completely different on the world than she would when she was 20. I mean a boy shouldn't be executed for intentionally killing his father that didn't give him a birthday present.

  • First, a 16 years old who carries a weapon knows as well as an 18 years old that killing a human is bad and punishable. You dont need to have a degree or finished adolescence to learn it. Secondly, that is your opinion, but you dont know the reality of other countries. For instance, here in Chile, minors dont get any sentence because we also believe in those numbers, and because of that, minors are paid to kill other people and this practice has spread.

  • yeah I got that the isreal/map thing was a lie. But in all your alternatives about the girl you say she was executed. Did the government in Iran intentionally execute a girl/boy under 18 years? yes/no please :P If yes that would be quite weird.. I hope you see my point :)

  • Yes they did so in her case, because the judge determined that since she was carrying a weapon, had ran away from home with her boyfriend, talked badly against her own family, and murdered a human being without her life being endangered, all of which her own boyfriend with whom she had ran away with testified, a sentence of an 18 years old could be applied. There is people 40 years old who act like they are 20, and 16 years old like they are 30. Why is a number more important than acts and mind?

  • All I can say is thank you so much for using your time to inform me :)

    I'm not sure if this is correct, but I've heard in the media that Iran has executed teenagers? Of course I am fully aware that this might go under your category " Western propaganda". As you explained earlier, you have to be fully aware of the death penalty and you need a proper education. How come teenagers get killed then? Is the media simply lying with their age or?

  • We can take the most emblematic example, which was first broadcast by the Californian Voice of America, and now there are BBC repetitions all over YouTube which you should watch.

    They talk about Atefeh, a 16 years old girl who was executed by the evilness of the mullahs or Islamic police and whatsoever. It is first interesting to note the different versions of the tale (the contradictions usually indicate the lies):

  • Some say she was stoned (although for 10 years stoning has been banned in Iran), some others that she was hanged. Not even in this there is consensus just as in the "wipe Israel" lie: they say that Ahmadinejad said "wipe Israel off the map", and others that he said "wipe Israel off the face of the earth", some others even say "wipe Jews off the earth".

  • However, women in Iran can only get executed for killing a human being (the other, shared with men, is cheating on your wife or husband, but this never happens in practice since it is impossible in practice on most cases to provide certain proofs).

  • Atefeh had stabbed a man to death when she ran away from home with her boyfriend - which he himself testified for in court later on along with family and friends -, and because she was carrying a weapon she shouldnt had been carrying and killed someone without her own life being endangered, the judge determined a sentence for an 18 years old could be applied on her.

    More importantly: This is the Iranian version, and one could not trust in it, but then why should the accusations be trusted?

  • yeah I see the difference 0.o that's some amazing facts. But how do you know they are so much more reliable than the reportes without borders?

  • In the first place, World Public Opinion asked the people, while Reporters Without Borders didnt. They just applied an agenda of standardization with no relation to the reality there.

    Secondly, we dont know which facts are more reliable, hence the logical conclusion: stop taking your truths from the elegant numbers, posh reports, and private agendas others have in store for you. Start using your own brain and forget about relying in third persons accounts.

  • damn :P You seem to know a load of this stuff... However I cant yet believe that a lot of the media we believe today is propaganda.

  • A lot of it is pure propaganda. It is not Western media exclusively, just the whole system of media, so full of arrogance, as it is ruled by people who believe themselves to be spreading the ultimate truth, while only blinded by their own selfishness.

    How many times have you heard Ahmadinejad called to "wipe Israel off the map"? Yet did you know he didnt even say "Israel" or "map", and for sure nothing which meant something similar to that genocidal fabrication?

  • I'm sorry if I dont understand everything you say :P I'm just curios as I don't know too much about it.

    Well, you answered the homosexual incident with the reason that they were pedophile men that was executed for raping etc. The point is that being homosexual without having done anything wrong is unlawful in Iran and will be punished with death (according to what I've heard). Even the UN said the men that Norway kept safe were in danger in Iran.

    Kind regards

    Santa claus :P

  • Nobody is or has ever been found guilty in Iran for being something they didnt choose to be. This is so much like this, that to get executed, it must first be proven that a. you have had a proper education and b. that you were fully aware that the crime you were committing had as punishment the death penalty. If people was executed for being homosexual in Iran, why do they lie about criminals here in the West, presenting them as innocent to claim they were executed for "being" homosexuals?

  • Not long ago, some Iranian homosexual men was granted access to live in Norway. The reason to this was that their life would be in danger in Iran. According to the UN (I have great respect to the UN, and I am sure US is not controlling the UN) Norway had to grant them access, as their life was in danger. Not good reputation for Iran, eh? I would like your opinion on that :)

    Kind Regards

    A guy from Norway

  • The whole European Union admits that homosexuals are not persecuted in Iran. How was the Iranian homosexual man granted asylum in Norway getting his life threatened?

    That is your own problem if you respect so much the UN which killed millions of human beings in the UN while knowing there was no evidence of Saddam having weapons of mass destruction during the 1990s when their sanctions were imposed against all those human beings.

  • Of course not good reputation for Iran, that is the whole point of their campaigns. If Iran was so intrinsically bad, or if a single one of their claims was even partially true, why would they have to invent so many lies, pay so many people to play roles, fund so many satellite channels to turn the Iranian people against their own government (just last year, the US Senate voted to spend 75 million dollars for this purpose)? Truth doesnt depend on vast amounts of money to back it to remain true.

  • According to the Reporters Without Borders Press Freedom Index for 2007, only

    three other countries - Eritrea, North Korea and Turkmenistan - have more restrictions on news media freedom than Iran.[75] Its 2007 report on Iran says "Dozens of journalists were arrested in 2006 for criticising the authorities and some were imprisoned in secret in difficult conditions without access to a lawyer." [76]

  • Reporters without borders is another one world institution used precisely to get people like you to do what you just did: Copy and paste their "truth". Do you think a 30 years long demonization of Iran doesnt contemplate the institutionalization of demonization? Reporters without borders are just another tool of global homogenization, and imposition of a cultural monopoly. They gladly get their information from the same networks of rumors, and arrogantly impose against their enemies.

  • According to World Public Opinion,

    How much is your government ruled by the will of the people? (1 to 10)

    United States: 4.0

    Argentina: 4.4

    Mexico: 4.5

    France: 4.6

    Britain: 4.9

    Iran: 5.9

  • The country should be governed by the will of the people more than it already is (% agreement)

    Mexico: 85

    United States: 83

    Britain: 77

    Argentina: 75

    France: 73

    Iran: 59

    Do you see the difference with Reporters Without Borders who didnt mind to ask the people how they felt, but imposed their agendas?

  • Mate, if the US gives Taliban power, Saudi Arabia is an american dictatorship, and that Bin Laden has close relations with CIA... then there's something missing. How come nobody in the US (working with these stuff) has told anything about it? I mean that kind of work would require a lot of people, and all of them would have to shut up? Besides I've also heard that homosexuality is unlawful and will be punished with death in Iran.. Morality problem?!

  • How many people in the know that Clinton killed 500,000 innocent Iraqi children via sanctions under excuses of weapons of mass destruction, and over 1 million people (according his administration and the UN)?

    Why did the world care more about Lewinsky than the lives of millions of human beings?

    Doesnt it take a lot of people and all of them to shut up? Yes, but still it happened. Dont come to me to tell me that is an argument to claim suppressed truth is not truth.

  • Everybody knows the Talibans were brought into power by the US. Everybody knows the Saudi kings are the US lapdogs. Everybody knows Bin Laden worked in the CIA, and even your dear Wikipedia says his official speaker, Adam Pearlman, is a Californian orthodox Jew.

    I already answer to your questions about homosexuality in Iran, why are you repeating those accusations again as if I wouldnt have answered to that already?

  • ok I get your point, but how do you explain that Al Qaeda wants every country in the world to be islamic? Something is telling me that Al Qaeda is islamic :P Even though muhammad said that, even muslims have fought against each other! so that's not really a good argument in my opinion.

  • If I was to set up a fake Judaic religion to get people to fear and hate Judaism, wouldnt I precisely want them to think that I want the world to be Judaic, and conquer it and terrorize it for my aims and those of my "evil" religion? Why are you taking their claims as truths? In every judiciary system, not even a witness account weights more than evidence. Examine their actual actions, alliances, members, and how they are viewed in the Islamic world as well.

  • If Al Qaeda is Islamic, why do they kill innocent people which is strictly forbidden in the Quran? Why do they look to impose Islam to others when it is strictly forbidden in the Quran? Why are they fine with the oppression of women when Islam forbids it? Why do they declare war on Muslims when Muslims are freeing themselves from tyranny (as it happened in Lebanon)? This goes explicitly against Mohammad's Medina Constitution which sets rules for alliances.

  • Furthermore, why does every single "Islamic" movement that gives the Western world an excuse to hate and fear Islam has a close tie with the Western powers? Why did Bin Laden work in the CIA, why is Saudi Arabia an American dictatorship, why were the Talibans given power by the US, and so on and so forth? Why isnt there a single "Islamic" movement of those which was not intervened by a Western power, while those causing unity among Muslims, as Hezballah, are indeed independent?

  • "Al Qaeda is an international Sunni Islamist movement founded in 1988." - Wikipedia.

    Wikipedia states that Al Qaeda is a (fanatic) muslim movement. You say it is not. Al Qaeda's plan is to make all countries obey the Sharia Law, making them Islamic states (there was an Islamic alliance back in 750 called the Islamic caliphate).

    I'm interested in your answers of course ;) I like this subject and BTW I live in Norway so I'm not influenced by US Media (that much).

    Kind Regards

  • If you believe Wikipedia, swallowing their claims with no critical thinking, that is your own very personal problem, not mine. It is you who refuse understanding this world more properly, only harming yourself.

    When the Hezballah revolted in Lebanon months ago, Shias, Sunnis and Christians followed in their attempt to drive the US and Israeli lapdogs ruling the country out of power. This brought all people together, as it was in the interest of Lebanon.

  • The only ones who opposed were of course the US and Israel, but interestingly, also Al Qaeda, who declared war on Hezballah! Showing their true face of defense for the US-Israeli interests in the Middle East, not as Muslims, but as an American-Israeli proxy in the region.

    Stop judging by what websites claim, and use your mind. Examine the real actions and steps of the deceivers. The murderer can also say he is from the party of the innocents, but only a terrible judge wont look at the evidence.

  • Prophet Mohammad said, "Someone who wakes up in the morning not concerned about the affairs of Muslims is not a Muslim." So how is Al Qaeda Islamic, when not only do they not care about the affairs of Muslims, but declare war on their uprisings against the obvious enemies of truth?

    Dont be so sure that living in Norway makes you free from the deceptions. I live in Chile but my media proudly parrots the same lies of the Northern Hemisphere and people fall for every line.

  • The Caliphates were the tyrannies of corrupt rulers who used the Quran for their own benefit (thus anti Islamic), and spread an empire in the exact same ways the Quran rejects Islam to be spread.

    Not different from what the tyrannies of Saudia, the UAE, or Jordan do in the present day. While being the allies of the enemies of Islam, they claim to be Islamic representatives (impossible since Islam prohibits monarchies), and give the West reasons to fear and hate Islam.

  • ah I figured out what music it was hehe (me had to learn to watch the end as well :P)

  • Another thing.. I love the music :D what's the name of the song, please?

    "Al Qaeda, the Talibans, the Saudis are not fanatic Muslims" - Germanicus24

    I have read that Al Qaeda's plan is to wipe out all non-muslim human beings on this planet, and to make every country in the world ruled by Islam (meaning Iran would be changed as well). I think its called a caliphate. Now, are you so sure that Al Qaeda is not a fanatic guy? He would have to wipe out you as well.

    Kind Regards

  • Who said Al Qaeda are not fanatics? But they are not fanatic Muslims. Bin Laden works for the CIA, Al Qaeda's official speaker is Adam Pearlman, an American orthodox Jew who's grandfather directed the ultra Israeli Anti Defamation League, and the perpetrators of 9/11 had proven strong links to the Pakistani (American ruled) secret service.

    A fanatic Muslim is more tolerant, more open minded, and more humble person who would never harm others precisely because of following the Quran better.

  • Nice that explained a hole lot, but just as you answered, a lot of other questions popped up in my head :) First, why would the "Voice of America" lie about Iran? I mean everything has a purpose... What's the intention of doing that? Even Barack Obama is not too friendly with Iran, and a lot is telling me he's quite intelligent (AND) Obama gives a sh*t about the previous bush administration relationships to the countries listed under "unstable/violent/hostile countries".

    Hoping for an answer

  • First, you seem to be fooled by the notion that Bush is special at having been bad - thus Obama likely being a "change" and sane person. However, Clinton murdered many more Iraqi children than Bush under the exact same excuses and the world loves Clinton (he gives conferences world wide, even here in Chile, which tickets are sold at the highest prices to watch a murderer talk!). All American presidents do the same, the only difference is Clinton didnt ruin the economy at it and Bush did.

  • Secondly, Obama himself quite intelligent? Who cares if he is intelligent? Intelligent is not a good virtue per se. Isnt the devil the most intelligent one to deceive us all? How is Obama any good when he chooses as his chief of staff a soldier from the Israeli Defense Force who smuggled weapons of mass destruction into the fundamentalist Israeli Irgun to wipe Palestinians off the map? How is he sane or clever in backing the Israeli war against Lebanon or calling Iran a "threat"?

  • And even if Obama would be OK with Iran, do you think it would be acceptable of him to say that in the American tyranny? Where you got newspapers printing headlines like "The evil has landed" when the humble and kind Iranian president went to speak at the UN, and nobody questioned the unbelievable bias and fanatic propaganda that so-called democratic media was launching.

  • When Iran has stated they want to sell oil in currencies away from dollars (which is positive for the world), this was a direct threat to the US imperialism which bases its system in taxing the whole planet via the inflation and deflation of the monopolistic dollar.

    Saddam did the same in 2000 and this was why he was attacked. Not oil fields, not WMD, not democracy.

    So in wanting to castrate the development of self-determined nations, they expect some military coup as they did in 1953 in Iran.

  • A coup d'etat would guarantee them that Iran is fully under control as it was in 1953 until the 1979 revolution, and not capable of threatening the fragile US empire with its liberty. So excuses of all sorts are constantly fabricated to justify either a regime change (which is also financed from California by the kicked out Iranian monarchists who were the US lapdogs in Iran and now have frozen wealth in Iran), or a military intervention, just as the lies of WMD were necessary to invade Iraq.

  • However they have studied Iran for decades, plotting against it and they already tested them militarily. Right after Iran emancipated from the US in 1979, the US backed Saddam to invade Iran allowing him to use WMD. In spite of the whole world backing Saddam back then, and Iran being the only nation interested in overthrowing the oppressor, Iran won the war and this sent a clear message to the US and Israel that the Iranian people is not easily defeated militarily.

  • So from that very beginning their hopes have remained in obtaining a regime change, thus spending huge sums of money in maintaining satellite TV channels and networks of rumors and spies, looking to spread overwhelming propaganda to demoralize the Iranian people, and turn them against the very system they themselves chose and still stand for.

    Furthermore, it is not even necessary to explain why lies are manufactured, as should suffice to note all the lies are easily proven false and exist.

  • Very well done, Germanicus! Over 31K views so far.... it is refreshing when I venture upon someone who tests the regurgitated crap from the AP and Rueters. Keep on!

  • Thank you so much Susan.

    Not surprising, because of the nature of your comment, that you are a religious person and do worry about this world increasing its Godlessness. Many people, because of this Novus Ordo Seclorum, think that religions are innately backwards. However, as the leader of the Islamic revolution wrote,

  • "If by 'manifestations of modern civilization' are understood new discoveries, inventions, technological developments which contribute to the progress of man and civilization, neither Islam or any other Monotheist religion has ever opposed to it. But if 'civilization and modernity' mean freedom for vice, for prostitution and disrespect for life, then all heavenly religions, all wise men, and all educated and sane men oppose to it, in spite of East and West committing to their diffusion."

  • germanicus24, this has to be one of the best videos I have ever seen on youtube. I also got some questions however, that I would like you to answer. I'm hearing there are executions in Iran, without the victims being judged properly. Second, I don't see any reason that everything in Iran is civilized because they have nice buildings. Third, Islam has great influence on Iran, even though Iran is a republic, not a monarchy. I would be grateful to get an answer

    Kind regards

    Me :P

  • Many thanks for your curiosity. Most people with your same lack of knowledge on the issue impose their misunderstandings instead of doing what you do: Asking.

    Yes you are right, there are executions in Iran. For instance, some months ago, members of a pedophilia network which systematically raped children were executed. We in the West heard of that as: "Iran executes homosexuals", since they happened to be homosexuals. But death penalty for a woman who murdered someone is not "executing women".

  • You might agree or disagree with the death penalty, but the truth is that Iran has little chances. Reasons why people are executed in Iran are very serious sexual crimes like rape, exploitation of children, drug trafficking and terrorism (since all are actually linked to the latter one). The US along with many of our Western countries maintain scattered terrorist groups and misled tribes dedicated to murder human beings and create instability in Iran (Jundallah army, MKO, PKK, etc.).

  • The only reason why a country surrounded by rogue regimes poisoned by the US (Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan), has consolidated as a model of stability, security, safety and peace as Iran has done for 30 years, is precisely because of the practice of death penalty to deal with all these cases linked to terrorism and its finance (sexual market, toxic substances, etc.). The law is very strict, and death penalty can be applied to very little and properly assessed cases, as many conditions must be met.

  • The only reason why you hear of these claims about unjust executions is because many people fall for rumors of the Voice of America sort. This Californian propaganda channel aimed against Iranians, has produced a wide range of stories to claim this chaotic justice in Iran. But I call on everyone interested on the subject to really study for themselves where do these myths come from, the nature of the sources. And be careful, because even the BBC proudly echoes the lies of Voice of America.

  • About civilization. You didnt understand my video. I never said modern buildings imply civilization, but the complete opposite. I show the modern buildings and actually say those are not proof of anything. Civilization has nothing to do with shiny buildings but with the evolution of its people, and the way in which their society works. This true civilization is where Iranians excel at, and from where we have so much to learn from.

  • What is the problem with a republic? Maybe you are misled by the anti Islamic campaign of taking over Arab countries and installing pro Western monarchist dictatorships to then claim they represent Islam (KSA, UAE, etc.).

    There is nothing more contrary to Islam than a monarchy, and the inheritance of power by something as vain as blood. An Islamic nation must be guided by the wisest men, not oppressive kings who spend their lifetimes watching camel races and disgracing the name of Islam.

  • That is my answer to you, and remember those are just the words of a Chilean descendant of Germans, born in a Catholic family, so in no way the real "other side" (maybe an Iranian Muslim proudly living in the Islamic Republic of Iran), but just an attempt of standing for its perspectives, in the hope of translating between civilizations.

    Kind regards from Chile,

    Germán

  • This video and the older version are two of the best videos ive ever seen on youtube and i watched 10,000 videos in the last 2 years

    what you put on these videos are 100% True

    well done great job im giving these 5 stars and im subscriving

  • Thank you for your comments, but I cant take compliments from people with bad intentions (as you are against religions). I dont have any religion, but would never consider someone like you, so obsessed with bashing them, as an ally.

    Compliments of that family will suffice arrogant self-centered ones. I prefer to be vilified by the bearers of truth and wisdom, than to be praised by the full of hatred ones.

    Kind regards from Chile,

  • im not obsessed with bashing religions what are you talking about

    i just made ONE video about how fanantic muslims are funny

  • What is a fanatic Muslim supposed to be? One who is more submitted to God than the average, thus a good and humble person who would never look for power, destruction, or kill or oppress anybody, but free them with the wisdom of God?

    Is a fanatic Muslim something that exists, or only something which notion people with intrinsic hatred and Tel-Aviv and Washington academicism spread?

  • a fanatic Muslim who takes islam so seroisly that its no longer islam but a mess

    Example sunni suicade bombers of iraq

    did you know its forrbidin in islam to harm to your self on purpose

  • So taking Islam too seriously is not Islam? I think you have lived way too much time in the West, and proudly echo the absurd propaganda we manufacture here to eradicate religions off the face of the earth.

    I know it is forbidden in Islam to harm yourself. But did you know there were no suicide bombers in Iraq before the Western and Soviet interventionisms there? Would there be Talibans in Afghanestan without the URSS. Would there be a dictatorship in Saudia without the US? That is not Islam.

  • Islam was the perfect religion until people got fanatic about it and ruined with there own crazy intertaions of the quran

    everytime people get fannatic about any idoligy the idoligy is ruined

  • What does it imply to be fanatic about Islam? Think about it, THINK! Is being a fanatic in loving human kind a bad thing?

    Stop parroting the lies you learned from my hijacked Western media and hijacked academic system which serves the purposes of those looking to wipe religion off the face of the map.

  • Al Qaeda, the Talibans, the Saudis are not fanatic Muslims. Stop serving Tel-Aviv spreading that absurd propaganda.

    Al Qaeda's official speaker is an orthodox Jew from California, Bin Laden works for the CIA. The Talibans were an unislamic tribe brought to power by the US and their lapdogs the Saudis. The Saudis are a disgrace for Islam, and they only print Qurans to bring the religion down. They are a monarchy for God's sake, is there something more unislamic?

    Think for yourself!

  • I Know that already

  • Then why is your own channel icon the illustration of a fake Muslim protest, casted by the enemies of Islam, all banners manufactured by the exact same hand (as you can even compare between each violent poster they show)? It is not different from you claiming the kingdom of Saudi Arabia is a genuine representation of Islam, or "fanatic" Muslims, or that Bin Laden is sincere in his claims of him being a Muslim...

  • i thought about it and your right im sorry

    for a south american your increadably knowlegable about islam,poltics,iran,

  • I was wondering if you were bad intended or just misinformed. I realize you have a good soul, not because you tell me I am right, but because of your capacity to have taken a step back to better observe your own decisions and views. That is what the world is in such an urgent need of! Thank you for your humbleness to do that, it shows you are part of a milenary culture.

  • Khali ma moon in farsi thank you very much

    reason i thought fanatic muslims were idoits cause of my exprinces in Balochistan a very fanatic area

  • Sometimes knowing about these things while being a southamerican descendant of Germans plays against me, as the deceivers want to make others think I am some sort of a paid agent. Truth is I am still shocked by the beauties and truth I learned in Iran, and that has given me this passion to stand for the perspectives I hold.

    In Balochistan you have another country administered by the US, more tribes as Talibans selling themselves out to kill Iranians. And again, they are not Muslims.

  • Baloch people are a disgrace to the iranian nation i know you said its wrong to bad mouth peoples and religions

    They have no hosipalty unlike iranians

    they betray the state many times

    they dont intergrate with iranians they isolate them selfs

    Anyway America pays Pejab, the peoples mujahideen of iran and balcoh rebels to destablise iran thats why in the 1980s Khomani killed and kicked out tens of thousands of kurds,baloch and mujahideen suporters cause they threaterned iranian stablity

  • Some mediocre (moderate) Muslims claim it only takes for you to say the Shohada to be a Muslim. However, their own Prophet Mohammad said that someone who wakes up in the morning and is not concerned about the affairs of Muslims is not a Muslim. Those murderer Baluchis from the Junadallah army (financed by American taxpayers and third world narcotics traffic), dont care about the affairs of the Muslims, just their payments and credit lines from enemies of Islam.

  • Dont come to my channel to echo the academicist machinery we conveniently set up in the West to claim the existence of these creatures called "moderate Muslims". The only moderate Muslims are those mediocre in their Islam, such as those claiming to be Muslims while worshiping Bin Laden or Saudi Arabia. The fundamentalist Muslims are the people who follow Islam properly, and thus are good people, of good souls, civilized manners and tolerance.

  • LOL is this the way you say thank you to someone who said your videos where the best he had seen on youtube

  • Dont be a deceiver. I already thanked you for your comments, but more importantly, I said I cant take compliments from people so evidently misled. You will only achieve sufficing arrogant people with compliments while your heart is not on a right path. To me it is the heart and strength of mind of people which matters, and people like that dont compliment me, I follow them.

  • Liked it, Goooooooood Job. You are the man.

  • Subhanallah.... that's a good job bro, your tribute means a lot for the world's peace :)

  • Thank you so much for taking the time to watch this responsible personal perspective!

    Kindest regards from Chile,

  • Bionic creatures!!!!!!!!!

  • Mariam is beautiful and so you are.

    I love every person who believes and searches for truth, no matter who you are, whats your ethnicity, which religion you belong to. I love christians, jews and everyone in humanity and nature along with my muslim brothers and sisters.

    what has this world market given to us?

    Living people are becoming consumers, labour force but no more public.

    Oh my dear ones, the sons and daughters of Adam and eve where is your brotherhood?

    Where are your ethics?

    Peace.

  • You made some good points but it is also just counter-propaganda. I see the problems with western decadence but I don't see Islam as the answer.

  • I am not a Muslim, I dont understand what you mean by not seeing Islam as the answer. It is not your fault to not know Islam, and I hope you do get to know it one day.

    Everything is propaganda if you are not willing to see for yourself. This is why my video is titled "Decide for yourself". I did that, traveled to Iran, did my homework. I expect everybody who wants to have a say to do something remotely similar to that before judging or launching accusations.

    Kind regards from Chile,

  • Persia was the beginning of all human civilization and this word mean art, ciences, a good philosopy for life, good food and mouch health inside and outside of our bodies and not mcdonnalds, US prostitution, drugs, violence and culture misery.

  • A person who lives in the truth insted of reality, rules the innocent minds of those who beleve in justice.

    thanx and regards....MHSH

  • Awesome video!

  • Me encanta este vídeo, lo he visto bastantes veces, pero si dejo pasar unas semanas lo pongo otra vez y me vuelve a parecer conmovedor! Lamento la angustia que deben estar pasando los que tengan seres queridos allá (por no mencionar a quienes SON de allá). Ojalá haya algo q pueda parar la agenda... me alegré tanto de que Rusia diera un puñetazo sobre la mesa este verano. Un abrazo, a.

  • Great Vid ..

    the whole world want to live in peace with no one else getting in their own problems ..

    but seems that America doesn't want the peace to be in this world any more and it's getting in every one else problems ..

    i believe that all the wars in this time are caused by USA .. hope they just focus on their own problems .. and leave the world alone !!

  • nice

  • Gran vídeo Germán. Sigo admírándote e intentando seguir tu obra. Aunque a ti ya te de igual mi opinión.

    Gracias por compartirlo con todos.

  • a newly city was found in Iran which misses up all the ideologies and theories of the cradle of civilization. the discovery of this new city in Iran has proven that the Tigris and Euphrates were not where civilization began. Infact the oldest date of all civilization is date to Iran because this city dated back 8500+ years. It is truly amazing. they found the decomposed body of a woman in this city, but she had a golden eye. they had weird technology and even iron smelting. love live persia(iran

  • Great video thanks.

  • Good Vid, peace

  • Outstanding clip! BRAVO

  • That is very nice of you. Thanks for dropping by :)

  • Only this sort of clips can change the way people see others..

  • I wish all people of the world could watch this reality. Instead of crap on U.S media.

  • Maybe, but the idea here is "SEE FOR YOURSELF". Dont even let me and my good intended video to tell you what Iran is about. Not even "eye witnesses" accounts can be trusted in a world like this, so we better start checking for ourselves or else we will be indeed dragged by tides designed by others for us. It is about all of us not just seeing, but changing our framework of concepts layed upon our brains, our absolutization of concepts like freedom, progress or democracy. We MUST see beyond.

  • good video

  • Thanks for watching. Youre kindly invited to watch the refurbished version in my channel. Kind regards from Chile.

  • IRAN = LAND OF THE ARYANS

  • Thanks for the Wikipedia fact of the day.

  • SAWASTIKE = SAWA+ AST+ KEH = Unique, Noble.

    It's not from the wikipedia. simply analysing the words.

    Regards

  • Interesting. That one I didnt know it.

  • hehe america can do what ever they want and most of you are blind not only america is targeting iran but also russia is, russia and the US are working together to get and maintain world dominance such as the iran+isreal conflict russia is supply the iranians and the americans are supplying tthe isrealians and they gave them enough power to wipe out the enemy and there selves so they can take over the oil reserves and oil trades

  • You talk as a very naive person who thinks nowadays America is America at all or serving American purposes, when the truth is that long ago it stopped being that way to serve the interests of internationalist elites, just like Russia served the internationalist elites of Marxism. In serving Capitalism and Marxism, the US and Russia have never stopped being a different entity served as "two alternatives" for weak minded people. The US is serving Israel, not the other way around so much.

  • No. Bring back the real America, not the country hijacked by Zionism that that piece of land currently is, and there will be peace.

  • i agree with u all the way, the Bush administration needs to be impeached NOW, TODAY...before it's too late..

  • 1) My country is Chile, could we at least leave Chile alone, or do your Zionist (pro blood spilling, materialistic) ideals dont even let you do that?

    2) Iranians havent started a war in centuries. Apparently the only one finding that bad is you.

    3) Many thanks for helping illustrate the mental qualities of those demonizing Iran's Islamic Republic. Five stars to your educative comment.

  • The World needs 2 realize that the Federal Government of the United States does NOT represent the opinions of the majority NOR does it represent the best interests of Americans nor the rest of the world. Our government has become nothing less than an organized gang of criminals. Many, many older Americans I have talked 2 say they are just sick of what they see is happening 2 our country but they don't see anything we can do about it.We don't vote because they won't let us vote 4 REAL candidates.

  • Yeah, tell me about it. As soon as Obama got elected to represent Democrats he presents himself before the same lobbies of Zionism that Bush serves, to call to wipe the Iranian threat off the face of the map, and to call for more irrational and nonsensical sanctions to castrate the efforts and dreams of those beautiful people.

  • I'm glad someone cared enough to make a beautiful video like this. Thank you.

  • you konw the US went in to take out a dictator ( iraq )out of the international community but one word zimbabwe i fucking HATE america i wont to bomb fuck out of them!!!! and i know how hahahahaha

  • Germanicus: Im from England and studying Modern History. I have studied Iran to the present day. Its refreshing to read your comments. Iran is on the itinerary when I complete my studies, for a country that is overtly branded as dangerous, problematic and torn, it certainly looks very peaceful and chimerical, abundant in the culture shock factor afforded by a rich heritage. Great video and perspective. Respect.

  • I wish you can see the Iran as we know it today. Even as we speak its society is saddly changing under pressures of world powers' cosmovisional propaganda. I see there's so much to learn from Iran as an alternative valid cosmovision, and I find it sad that most Westerners interested, instead of becoming inspired by the Iranian wisdom, go there to impose their terminologies, no matter how friendly, but always assume our culture is capable of understanding all, instead of giving up and really see.

  • Well I have studied only the modern History of Iran. Thats all I have to relate to. Furthermore there is only so much you can learn about a culture from a book or through broadcasting, the best way to really learn is to travel or live there. Additionally one will only understand your viewpoint fully if the go there and see for themselves as you have done. It is disheartening to think that Iran would change under the barrage of sanctions and the current political climate.

  • Beautiful country.. great culture. I hope to go there one day.

  • American Imperial empire...

    The world of "STARS and STRIPES"

    it was Romans, Persians, Alexander and

    now it is American empire

    They have their military bases in 100+ countires and actually EU is a puppet of America

    80+ countries supported Iraq war

    including all countires of EU, even Turkey, Georgia and eastern europe

  • Vey nice and beautiful. thank you for your understanding and information.

  • Thank you for the nice comment. I hope you watch the updated version in my channel which is much better :)

    Kind regards from Chile,

  • buen video , yo estuve en Tehran y Tabriz , Iran es un pais con much belleza incomparable . gracias

  • Estuviste de gira por Medio Oriente?

  • bueno si guira tu llamas estar en iran ,turkia y israel si :) lol

    pero tu vives en santiago or irlanda?

    el mosque azul ES UNA MARAVILLA

  • Nothing but Propaganda.

  • Of course. Everything is propaganda actually.

    But are you going to compare the pro Iranian propaganda made by a non Muslim Chilean not related to Iran at all, to the deeply committed propaganda of the media against it with clearly defined agendas behind doing so?

  • wtf dam liying usa media iran seem like a peaceful place.and one thing i heard iz that iran pres. never said he watned 2 take isreal off the map but idk

  • Indeed. Iran has never attacked another country in the last 3 centuries, and its people and leaders are extremely proud of it.

    All the propaganda theyve been making up against Iran for 30 years has been a psychological war to bring the Iranian people down, and to fabricate an atmosphere so they can make public opinion to accept them invading Iran and culturaly intervening it with their own banks, oil industries and decadence, so they profit from Iran.

  • thank you very much for the video, persia really is very beautiful with grand civilization.

  • Many thanks for your nice comments and dropping by.

    Kind regards from Chile,

    German

  • Well I saw no torture, and people living there only know about torture through American financed TV stations that spread rumors through society like Voice of America, so why should I echo their lies?

    I think you didnt even watch the video: I did show the crowds of hundreds of thousands of women happily praising the leaders of the revolution, their martyrs, and the revolution itself.

    Now if youre just a supporter of the Shah how are we going to make you happy?

    "Iran is evil", better for you?

  • excellent! very moving. thanks for this. from Barcelona, peace

  • BEAUTIFULL!

  • Obrigado pelo teu comentario :)

  • If only more people were as open minded as u are!The world would've be a different place!

    I'm adding this to my fav's on Orkut facebook anywhere i can ;)

  • Thanks so much for the nice comments, and specially for spreading the voice. I suggest you to share the latest version of this video which you can watch in my channel as the featured video. It is very important for me to help stop the demonization of Iran as I fear an attack against that beautiful and admirable nation is soon to start.
