old-farzad. answer goldenboot's question please.
I did, but you do not seem to notice it. When someone says RP is qualified, the answer is what exactly makes him qualified. Its kind of like Jeopardy you know.
Persian Shah said:
why do you jump from one subject to another one?
people like you are the problem. that's why Iran would never be Iran again. "oh we have many others better than RP" probably one of them is either you or your dad...
Please do not get personal, if you do, this will be the last time I acknowledge, let alone reply to your posts.

let me make something clear. I'm no RP fan or anything like that...
You sound like a fan. Unless I am mistaken what the word "fan" means!!
Persian Shah said:
RP is the only Iranian who has excellent connections with other countries leaders and kings..
So he can go party with a few Kings and princes. So what? What leaders has he met with i nthe last few years, besides a few who are eyeing the resources of Iran.
Persian Shah said:
he is the only one who has clearly defined his plan for the future of Iran..
I beg your pardon, what plan are you referring to? Saying I will be the King if the people want me to does not amount to a plan. Furthermore, he is in no position to formulate a plan.
Persian Shah said:
he is the only one who has a well established organization..
A few old monarchists who are nostalgic for a past that never was, does not consitiute an organization.
Persian Shah said:
he is the only one countries like USA bother themselves to listen to..
Well USA, we all know what they are after. By the way, will you guys ever make up your mind? Did the US sponsor the revolution and is supporting the mullahs, or is the US opposing them. The story keeps changing. WIll you set us straight please?
.
Define well educated. If it is a few degrees, I know at least 100 people who have far more education that he does.
Bottom line, if RP has the interests of the people at heart, he should come out and say the following:
1- Acknowledge the mistakes, abuses of his father. Saying he would do thigs differently is not enough.
2- Purge the old bankrupt figures from his circles.
3- Renounce any claims to the throne once and for all. It is not enough to say, I leave it to the people, old-dead ayatollah said the same thing and we saw what happened. He should come out and say, I will not under any circumstances accept the role of the King.
4- Acknowledge that the reign of his grandfather came about illegally. Acknowledge that the reign of his father was enabled by the Americans and Brits and it was also illegal.
Once he can be honest the past, may be we stop doubting his honesty about the future.
If he wants to be a leader, let him show that he can forgo his own personal ambitions (and ambitions of his entourage) to lead the Nation to a better place. Until then, he is as credible as the old-dead ayatollah.
