    I was one of the Americans evacuated in 1979. This video brought back some wonderful memories of the Iranian people, their kindness, their hospitality and generosity. I was most impressed how they separate the American people from the gov't. Many thanks.

    As an American I have great respect for Iranian culture; Persepolis is so.... ? It's hard to believe that some structures can survive for such a long time on this earth. The differences is not with the American people and Iranian people, it's with our governments... filling our heads with nonsense; all over OIL! Such a shame. Inshallah, we can all respect each other some day, and enjoy the world's beauties in peace~~~~~~~

    I might be a Sunni Muslim however I support Iran and the Islamic revolution though I do not agree with gender change law.

    You have spoken the truth.

    Let Muslims unite.

    There is as much freedom of speech in Iran as there is in North Korea and your stereotypical homosexual is not tolerated. Sex, however, is a different story. They know and do things that girls in the Valley don't.

    I agree with you, I am against slavery and I do not like Zionists. I see my countries government making mistakes. There is alot of corruption here these days in politics. We the people are protesting against the wall street and banks. However there are still alot of people who haven't waken up yet. Take luck friend :)

    Yes, much much much more than western countries. We are not slaves to Jews in Iran. Iran is a free country, not a Jew slave.

    True, Iran is fascinating. You're correct about the govts. Here's why:

    Luke 4:5,6 "So he brought him up & showed him all the kingdoms of the inhabited earth in an instant of time & the Devil said to him: “I will give you all this authority & the glory of them, because it has been delivered to me & to whomever I wish I give it."

    As we all know, a "kingdom" is simply a form of government.

    Psalm 146:3 "Do not put your trust in nobles, nor in the son of earthling man to whom no salvation belongs."
