Persia - One of the world's oldest civilisation
by Santosh Noronha on Sep 27, 2006 03:06 PM

Persia is one of the world's most ancient civilisations. I live in Pune, which has a sizeable Persian student population. I find them very lively, friendly,and don't really pose a threat to anyone. They have a mind of their own, don't bow down to anybody and are proud of their identity! Why not!!

I guess it's high time that the U.S leaves Iran to herself and actually goes after the real threats, Arab nations like Saudi Arabia, Iraq etc and Pakistan, ironically U.S allies. Persia and India have always been friends and have the greatest civilisations in Asia- So there is a need to work together with Iran in world matters

sheela bhatt should know that in the present political set up no country can prosper for long by antagonising the only superpower and after all iran is a muslim country and it is expected to be anti american and anti israel.

Comments on the article Iran: tough nut for the US to crack

Well the article is very informative. I myself have married an Irani and settled in Pune. I have also visited Iran twice and it is a ver advanced country may be ten times more tahn India in terms of modernisation.

Since I have visited Tehran, Kish Islands it is a very beautiful place and they like to distinctively known as Persians of Aryan race. U hurt them if u called them Arabs or freom moghul race.

Iran-A Tough Nut To Crack....
by Nikhil on Aug 25, 2005 11:25 AM

An excellent piece of intelligence gathering and I believe the group of journalists.

Indians need to learn a lot from our closest Aryan links in the western Asia about patriotism and not bending in front of so called military powers. The likes of Mr. Manmohan Singh and those who like to call for Sonia Gandhi and Vajpeyi as their leaders for the sole purpose of garnering votes in the popular elections must definately read our history and compare it with Iran's right upto today's leadership. Great nations are built by its people with strong spines and leadership is definately a part of it...

This article seems to be good, it gives the test of irony, means pro-america.
The editor of this artile has prepared it diplomatically, maitaining pro-american idology intact.
It definetly gives the smell of anti-muslim too.
Its good keep it up.

Iran and America

Everybody sense that America's finaly cry is for oil and it is a pity that a big nation with huge minds do not put brains to work for an alternative product which is not but GAS.

Its a proven fact at times that the earth comprises of more gas then oil and IRAN does have a major part of rich GAS uner their feet. Poor Americans.
