Man you need to read. Oghuz groups of Iran or Turkey are genetically extremely close to Iranic groups. They are not foreign blood otherwise they would not have been genetically clustering like mad with each other. What does that tell you? it's more of a cultural divide and nothing else. Oghuz of West Asia like Turkish of Anatolia, us Azeris, Ghashqai, Turkomans, etc are not genetically some chink eyed horse herding gooks living on fermented milk but noble blood of our own soil which is why genetically we are far away from turkics of Central Asians and rather cluster with Iranic groups like Kurdish or NW Persians, Talysh, Tats etc. Here is another thing, Iranians genetically are very preserved nation, on a PCA plot from the iron age Iranics are like 95 % preserved genes (

If Oghuz of west Asia are clustering with such a preserved gene then how come are they some foreign group? You can accept science or you can deny the peer-reviewed western biogenetic research articles and believe in internet trolls, make your own choice. Being an engineer, I choose science.
And yes Ghorids were Tajiks, Samanids were Persians. Actually, Samanids were the reasons we Turkics emerged as a power in the region. They were the ones who brought up this Turkic slave Mamluk culture that eventually ended up defeating the Mongols. Politically too we have always worked together. Safavid royal lineage was Kurdish and Oghuz, Their armies were Turkomans, Vakils and Vizirs were Persians. Ottomans had Iranic Kurds allies. Arabs fought for both. We west Asians have always been genetically and politically mixed-up people. You as an outsider would not understand the joint Turko-Iranic culture. You people hear the name Iran and you think everyone would be the Persian son of Xerxex the great and everyone in Turkey will be an ottoman straight from Altaic caves, every Arab is Ibne Fudlan. Not that I care what someone on the internet does but my advice to you would be to start believing in the science of genes, not stories.
And yes out of 2800 years since Medes (ancestors of Kurds) found their empire, Iran has been under foreign (not Iranic or West Asian Oghuz, two geno clustering group) rule for 128 years of Arabs + 249 years of greeks + 120 years of Ilkhanates = 480-490 years. That is 83 % of free history. Even if I count Tumurid or Selkuk period (my own Afchars were allied with Timurids against Ottomans) then that is still an 80 % independent period stretching across 3 millenias. That is nothing in the history of ~2800 years esp if thick part of those 2800 years were centuries of cross-continental empires of our own, Persians had their glorified Millenium, and then us Turkomans revived Iran (secret: we are still in power).

And on the topic of us getting invaded, I asked you a simple question. Please let us know who will invade us and from where when our north and west are secured by topography and staunch allied governments/militaries and there is not even a remote enemy in south and southeast. You said people will invade us and will fight us in villages. I would want to know who and from where? Here we have a troll problem on this thread so you can post in our chill thread. Being banned before for fighting with chronic trolls, I prefer to stay in our section.
Accuracy is maddening. CEP of like 5-10 m. The villa was being used for hidden/secret anti-Iranian activities. And it is gone, pffff .... east shit enemies.
