	The Iranian: Letters
		Iranians seem to place an important emphasis on professional, religious, and academic titles as they serve as social identifiers used to distinguish among people.
		What I find quite interesting is that the great majority of Iranians chose the industrialized countries as their final destination because of their prosperity and higher standards of living.
		Then there are those Iranians that are actually graduates in physics or commerce and once they get a job in a decent company start calling themselves "Mohandes" even if their work has nothing to do with engineering.

	United States Policy Toward Iran: Can Sanctions Work
		If the sanctions are of greater salience for the actor, we shift that actor’s issue position by an amount equivalent to the difference in the salience of the sanctions and the issue multiplied by the difference in the issue position of the sanctioner and the actor’s original issue position.
		Moreover, nearly all other actors in the model struggle to anticipate what the public, in the unlikely event that it becomes engaged, might think, and therefore their inclusion in the present analysis is critical.
		From the perspective of an actor who would like to see the sanctions relaxed, the strategy is to find an additional issue that would facilitate the establishment of a winning coalition around an outcome that is to the left of the current sanctions policy (i.e., one that is at a point less than 70).

		Iranian culture and traditions, which had weakened under the pressure of Hellenism were restored by the Parthian dynasty, who brought a unique form of government.
		Iranians celebrated every opportunity to gain their independence and used every effort to weaken the Islamic government and to free themselves from its control.
		For this segment of Iranian society it was a matter of choice--"to stand dying or to die standing." A careful opposition developed that is discernible in the various media, including film.

	Bad Jens - Performance in Everyday Life and the Rediscovery of the "Self" in Iranian Weblogs
		In Iranian society, visibility in public spaces entails individuals putting their selves on display before the judgment of traditional society and risking the loss of social security.
		In fact, many Iranians believe that it is the right of men to talk about their intimate experiences up to a certain point, but view such revelations by women as vulgar.
		For most Iranian webloggers, the weblog is a mirror that reflects their inner realities - the way they really are (or think they are) or want to be, not the way they learned to be in traditional society.

		It would give new hope to the millions of Iranians who are dying to overthrow the corrupt clerics who oppress them and dishonor their religion, and it would have a sobering effect on all those who harbor terrorists, anywhere in the world.
		In his prepared remarks, Armitage said the Iranian people were now "engaged in a very rich and lively debate about the kind of society they want for themselves and for their children," including the desire for substantial economic and democratic reforms.

		And while Iranians point out that harshest penalties of Islamic Law are not regularly carried out, such as the notorious amputation of the thief's hand, Amnesty International reports Soviet-style repression: arbitrary arrests, secret trials, dissenters tortured and executed — sometimes by stoning, the punishment of choice for adultery, at least for the women.
		One subplot of the story of Iranian cinema is the path of increasing naturalism: shooting in available light, telling stories in real time, using non-professional actors.
		The ongoing conversation in recent Iranian films about the inferior position of women under the Islamic regime is as vital and potentially culture-shaking as have been any social problem films in the history of Western cinema.

		The Iranians have learned from Osiraq and have taken steps to ensure the survival as well as secrecy of their nuclear program.
		They're being leaked this stuff by reformist members of the Iranian government who (rightly) view Khatami as a sell-out and recognize that the hardliners are in the process of wiping out their movement as an organized political force inside Iran.
		It is important, therefore, that those actors who play their parts should be of unblemished character.

		The village of Ras al-Ein, which is situated in the Bekaa Valley of Lebanon, falls under the overlapping control of the Syrian Army, the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps, and the Shiite terrorist group Hezbollah, or Party of God.
		The village is seedy and brown, and is decorated with posters of martyrs and potentates—Ayatollah Khomeini is especially popular—and with billboards that celebrate bloodshed and sacrifice.
		Hezbollah and its Iranian sponsors are considered by the governments of Israel, the United States, and Argentina to be responsible for the single deadliest anti-Semitic attack since the end of the Second World War: the suicide truck-bombing of the Jewish community center in Buenos Aires, in 1994, which left more than a hundred people dead.

		Bowling for Columbine has been one of the most influential films of recent years, affecting the public in a way that most directors on this list will never know, but it would never have become such a cause had it not been so rigorously researched, painstakingly constructed and broadly entertaining.
		Her films get bolder and more confrontational every time - Blackboards took her into the Kurdish lands on the Iranian border; her latest, At Five in the Afternoon, was shot in the chaos of post-Taliban Afghanistan - but for all their political currency, there's still evidence of an artistic sensibility.
		Heading the list of the pop-promo-and-TV-commercial wonderkids of the early 90s, Fincher successfully brought that world's visual inventiveness into the feature film world.

		The idea of individual "selfless sacrifice" was used during the Iran- Iraq War of the 1980s when units of Iranian children with the "keys to Paradise" hanging on their necks cleared Iraqi minefields with their bodies.
		In 1982 the Iranian revolution under the Ayatollah Khomeini was exported to Lebanon, where the Islamic Resistance, a precursor of Hezbollah (Party of God), launched a series of suicide attacks against U.S., French and Israeli targets.
		For example, Iranian hard-liners, including Hosein Shariatmadari in a 21 January 2003 editorial in Kayhan, called for Palestinian suicide bombers to target U.S. forces in the region.

	The Iranian: Letters
		I guess the author of the article on Fardin was right in pointing out that, "to most Iranian intellectuals [Fardin] remained an over-rated actor who represented a commercial cinema that was an embarrassment to our national identity." Though I am not sure if the person complaining about the article is in fact an intellectual!
		In fact Belmondo's entire career is indebted to Goddard.Yet our local intellectuals (with a few exceptions) failed to use popular actors to convey more complex messages.
		Fardin worked with three distinguished Iranian filmmakers :with the late Jalal Moghadam in "Raaz-e derakht-e senjed", with the late Ali Hatami in "Baabaa Shamal" and with Masoud Kimiaie in "Ghazal".
