As an Iranian I want to send this message to all of you here; We love you and Iran is a rich civilized country occupied by Islamic extremists which is unfortunate and we are terribly ashamed and sorry for all this regime has done in the past 32 years in the world and all the trouble you have to go through to get a visa.. we are doing our best to fight the regime and throw them out. Persian Empire was established 2500 years ago as the first empire and Cyrus the Great declared the human rights rules which all of you excluding us ourselves!! are living free under
The first religion on earth which believed in one god Zoroastrianism came from Iran and later other religions such as Islam, Christianity,.. copied it with some modifications.. even December 25th which church had people to believe it’s Jesus birthday (after 400 years that he was killed/dead) was the day that it was celebrated in Persia for years as the longest day (in terms of hours and minutes) of the year.
The sun will shine again soon…you’ll see soon…
