Hey m.ar.d

[Mirai]

This has been bugging me for a while..

If you're from Iran, as previously told, how tight are the restrictions on internet use? I would think that some of the opinions you are recieving on this forum could be construed as 'crimes against islam', or something like that.

And what are your feelings on the impending iraqi invasion? I know that Iran and Iraq haven't been the greatest friends ever, and since we all know that Iran is next in line for bush's holy crusade of regieme change, how do you feel about that?

[wu_trax]

he lives in germany, so there are no restrictions

[Sub]

What does "m.ar.d" actually mean anyway? Is it just an abbreviation of a long name?

[Mirai]

He lives in Germany?

I thought he said he lived in Iran..

oh well..

[Scoot951]

That would explain a few things.

[Sandsnake]

best I can tell, he's iranian descent rather than actually iranian.

I have alot of relatives in Iran . I ran away 12 years ago.
well there are officialy no restrictions.
But everyone knows that they are being monitered by the bastardos in the secret agencies.
so everybody is very carefull to say nothing political.
you can get in alot of trouble if you do that.

My feelings about the crisis is very clear.
An idiot has been elected to be the president of usa:

IN HIS INFINITELY DUMB SPEECH OF 29.1.2002 he called Iran iraq and north korea the axis of evil.
Now Iran and north Korea have started building nuclear weapons. He has allowed sharon to destroy the palestinian authority government and destroying any hope for peace.
This man is a dumb and dangerous leader.
And he has to be stopped before he destabilizes the entire world.

I hate to interrupt a good rant, but both Iran's and North Korea's nuclear programs began long before Bush's "Axis of Evil" speech and even Bush's Presidency. Iran began construction on their heavy water facility at Arak in 1996 and their enrichment facility at Natanz in 2000. North Korea's nuclear program first came to light in 1993.

Bush may be an idiot, but if you think Iran's and North Korea's nuclear programs have anything to do with him then you're no smarter.

thats no rant.
Noth koreas nuclear ambition were on halt after the negotiations with jimmy carte and the clinton administration.
they only started it again after Bush called them part of the axis of evil and started the iraq crisis.
If you think that the sudden activities by both iran and north iraq are not the product of bushs idiotic foreign policy, you are no smarter than he is.

Actually, I didn't forget it's written from right to left... In my browser, "مرد" has "د" on the left, and "م" on the right, and the "م" and "ر" are automatically written together. What browser are you using?

As for getting it to work in HTML, I wrote http://geocities.com/fnorddaemon/esrever/unicode.html to change characters into HTML-thingies, just paste into the top box, then copy from bottom box. Requires Javascript, and a Unicode browser. Might require IE, as I haven't tested on other browsers. Might also require removal of Geocities ads (by saving the page, and editing ads out in Notepad), as Geocities ads are incompatible with just about everything in existance...

North Korea is estimated to have enough fissionable material for 2-5 bombs. It would have taken them several years to produce that much material plus additional time to build the new facilities necessary to produce it (their original facility was mothballed until a month ago). Do the math.

If you think that the sudden activities by both iran and north iraq are not the product of bushs idiotic foreign policy, you are no smarter than he is.

The only thing sudden about their activities is that the international community is starting to take notice of them.
