Where are you peace lovers of free countries? Why don't you help Iranian youths killing by the Islamic regime?

Iran is isolated by the regime. Media and news channels are banned also most of Internet websites, SMS and mobile services. I expected people from outside of Iran helping us. But even Obama isn't ready to help us. Where are you peace lovers?
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul.
If one member is afflicted with pain,
Other members uneasy will remain.
If you have no sympathy for human pain,
The name of human you cannot retain.

Alright we didn't want any body to free us. We just ask for support. No revolution can happen without help of foreigners. And you choose not to help people and you know what Ahmadinejad can do to the world. This is not only our problem but yours too. And any way human being are member of a whole, remember brothers?
Look at these photos in facebook, look I love these people who support Iranians. Italians are the first people who did that. Thanks Italians. Viva Italia!

I am sorry to break this to you, but our 'president' does not share the people's concern. You can rest assured that the people in USA whether the president is supporting you or not, we are blaring the news about Iran at every newscast, raising awareness. We do have corruption, and the mainstream media is all corrupted, but in USA, you can still hear the truth if you're interested. We do all that. We are with you, and wish you success in every aspect. This is your big chance to make your voices heard. GO full blown and protest for your rights to be heard! This is beautiful democracy! You guys are making history.

    Usually when the 'west' interferes it tends to make things worse.

    Power to the people. If only regimes were not quite so one sided when it comes to the amount of power they have...

    There is an ugly and self-defeating paradox in your words.

    Whenever Third-Worlders get into trouble they scream at the West to come to their aid. Then they scream about Western Imperialism.

    The ugly truth is, you want the West to come running when you get into trouble, then you want to the West to treat you like equals. Did it ever occur to you that you cannot have it both ways?

    Either you can handle your problems on your own, or you cannot. If you cannot, then how can you justify your anti-western attitudes. The British didn't need outside assistance fighting their Civil War, and neither did the Americans. The French managed their revolution without assistance, why can't you?

    By admitting you need assistance, you're admitting that you can't handle the situation. Being mature (as an individual or a nation) means you handle your own problems on your own. So if YOU don't like what's going on in your country it's up to YOU to solve the problem. Respect isn't given, it's earned. How do you expect others to respect you when the first time you have trouble you cry out for others to come to your aid?

    It's YOUR country. It's YOUR problem. YOU fix it. (It's what the "grown-ups" do).

    No one can free the Iranians except the Iranians themselves as by their own choices of actions and inaction in the past, of accepting a virtual religious dictatorship and the submission and self subjection to the rule of the same so as to remove themselves from the international community politically, educationally, economically and spiritually, they and they alone have put themselves in the straits in which they now find themselves.

    The choice the Iranians now face is whether they will choose to attempt to overthrow such as they themselves created through violent or by peaceful means as hopefully they will recall the thoughts of a past political leader of another once subjected nation who taught that a minority, regardless of how powerful the same may seem to be, can not rule a majority unless the majority consents to the same and that non-violent actions and resistance can be the most effective means by which to bring about a change.

    Do not look to others to solve your problems, espeically those whom you have rejected violently in the past. Look, rather, within yourselves to find your answers and your means of peacefully achieving your goals that will hopefully be beneficial to all and not to only a few.

    namaste.

    Peace lovers of free countries don't like wars ;-p

    The Iranians need to overthrow the dictator by themselves.

    It is impossible for bloodless political changes in countries like Iran ;-p
