We should look at who is the one criticizing. Is the opinion of a Los Angeles Shahi more important than a poor truck driver complaining for his rights so he can feed his family?
Try to be more just. We have a foreign enemy, yes. And most Iranian (nationalists) support our country and when the time of duty arrives many will volunteer and go back with the first flight to defend our lands in any way or form. But there is a other duty for all of us Iranians, and that is to put the interests of our people and country first. Not some government, entity or whatever.
Just because we have a foreign enemy does not mean we should be deaf and blind to the situation of our own compatriots inside the country.
Agreed, I have nothing against this Dariush (I think you're missing my original point brother). My intent was to make light of the over exaggeration of the situation in Iran to the point where people genuinely believe the country (often as a whole) is an irredeemably shitty place. Now if this grievance is being brought up by those who are most affected by any detriment in Iran originating from woeful economic conditions and lack of progress, I'm not against it and fully support their pleas for help. -- Supporting the just plight of those suffering most acutely in Iran will always be something I stand behind.
But unabated "Iran is shit, Iran is a hellhole, **** Iran, Iran sucks" kind of talk will never fly with me. I guess my frame of reference is the expats I have come across always bashing Iran yet living lavishly here in the States.
