Tehran book fair

A place for ...

In Iran every year people wait for Tehran book fair and try to save their money for buying books, the books that only put in personal library and most of them never read. It is a syndrome that people want go to this fair and buy all books that they need in a year so in other days of the year city bookstores are deserted and they try sell more book to people in these days. In the fair also debates about election is every where especially in press section, politicians and who are active in politic talk and try! Answer to questions that people asked them. Every day election become more important than before and now in metro and taxi people have another subject for talking (but price of tomato is still main subject) Anyway these days Tehran fair book is the best choice for candidates to introduce themselves to people.

Reformists

Presidential election-4
They emerged as supporters of president khatami when people chose him for the first time with their amazing votes.
Definitely many of them were not real reformist and because in late years being a reformist have benefits they changed their names but some of them really want and try for real democracy in Iran and say less lies and more truth(only maybe).
In election most important candidates of reformist is Dr.Mostafa Moeen and his words are more like what many people of Iran wants.
But media in Iran boycotts him and don’t allow him to introduce himself for people and unfortunately he didn’t have the charisma that president khatami had. So I don’t think that he could success for these reasons.
Anyway I will vote to him because maybe with his presidency meaning of freedom, human right don’t change more in Iran.

CONSERVATIVES

Presidential election-3
They have at least 6 candidates .and its very strange for people because conservatives know very well how hide their arguments and only show that they have unity between themselves but this time their differences become publicly so these day everybody know that they have a big debate for choosing only 1 person from these 6 candidates. But no one predict that they could and its good because their votes broke between their candidates.
ps: I think there is no need I write about principle of conservatives. They are support theocracy and their utopia is a close society for controlling people easily and 1984 is their bible ;)

Presidential election-2

Who wants be next president of Iran?
They are 2 main group, conservatives who have at least 6 candidates and reformists who have 2 candidates and I’ll try write more about them in next days but what I want to write about is that many people in Iran wants be a president so in registration for candidates there is a long queue from people who wants register and you must not surprised when found your classmate register for being a president.
I know that in a democratic system every citizen have right to candidate him/herself and ask people for vetoing to her/him. But when a baker or butcher wants be president you will be agree with me that again another ring lost.

Managing blogrolling

Finally I managed my blogrolling account and make a tiny list of weblogs. There are tow groups in my tiny list. first group are Iranian bloggers who have weblog in English and second group are weblogs that I found they linked to my weblog. So I linked to them to appreciate them and I think it was clear that I don’t know none of them and maybe my ideas be completely different with them or maybe we were agree for some ideas and principles.

ps: it thought it was important to note this issue because in Iran you always must prove that you are innocent instead that others prove you are guilty so if one they I arrested or accused for my weblog and if they charged me with spying for foreign country maybe this post help me to proving that I am innocent ;).

Presidential election-1

Iran’s newspaper are full with news about presidential election but among people is a kind of apathy so election is not main subject, (main subject is price of tomato). I think it was very dangerous because when rate of participation be low conservative can easily win election with votes that supporter of regime gives to them. They are at least 15% percent of Iranian society but always participate in every election and every demonstration when regime asks them.

Iran and America border ;)

This big billboard is in Iran Iraq border(or Iran America border ;) where you can easily see Iraqi people that side .

How much a shaking hand is important?

I start my day with a surprising news " khatami shook hand with Israel president in funeral of pope john Poul II ."
i was really glad that maybe finally they change their narrow mind and decide to begin talks .
but when i saw another news that khatami denied shaking hands , i extremely disappointed .i do-not know which claim is truth .but what is clear is that some shadows are in both side that didn't allow relation between two sides and i cannot really understand why because all i see in this position is anything expect benefit .
