After 100 years…

Today was 100 anniversary of parliament in Iran .100 years ago after lots of demonstrations and objections by Iranian people . finally the king Mozzafar-e-din Shah convinces to sign order of first parliament in Iran (and Asia).
In Iran this movement called as Revolution.
But after about 100 years this question frequently asked in Iran society and among intellectuals: what happen in these 100 years that Iran couldn’t achieve to a complete democracy and free society?
Iranian experienced at least 3 revolutions in these years every time to starting a new course but after a period of time they see there is not all of they wants form their movement which they tried for it.
Maybe revolt is not a good case for achieving what our society expect (what do you think about reform?). Or maybe Iranians only anticipate a paradise just after every movement so they didn’t t support (or supervise) the leaders of movements for a long time so very soon they disappointed and wants to comeback to past (president Ahmadi nejead is Succeeded of reformist president Khatami)
Or maybe leaders betrayed to hopes of Iranians with fighting with each other for more power
And finally maybe Iranian people are not ready yet for a real democracy.
--------
I really didn’t want to close my eyes to all of signs that Iranians obtain in these 100 years in freedom and democracy , frankly I am really glad that I was born in Iran instead of Iraq ,Qatar ,Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Turkmenistan. Azerbaijan, Jordan Oman, Cuba, Syria or many others of U.S allies in the world
But I am upset why I couldn’t experience all of democracy !

I live in the United States and have been checking your Iranian blogs trying to see what's going on there. One thing I understand is your lack of freedom. You are looseing the few freedoms that you've gained over the past 10 years. If something isn't done you'll in up living in a totalatarian state where even the hope of freedom will wither and die. We in the US hope that the young people of Iran can make their dream of fredom a reality. You must remember that everything has a price IF you are willing to pay it. Just as my country fought for our independence and freedom froa England in 1776, our price for freedom was paid for in blood. That seems to be how it is, if something is that important, the price is in blood. Remember that freedom is an idea that is like a seed that is planted, it grows. I wish all of you the best.
