Maybe in a day and age where communications were closed and tightly controlled would the absurd propaganda and hard-line rhetoric coming from Iran’s top officials, namely radical Ahmad Khatami, be taken as true. But that day is a remnant of a era long in the past. Today, the power of social media has repeatedly demonstrated it’s power to changed the course of world politics. The revolution may be suppressed for the time being, but you can be sure it’s coming and the government of Iran should be worried if they want to retain the tight grasp on power they’re used to. I’m not an expert on Islam but to say that protesting and dissent is “mohareb” and punishable by death, shows how twisted these elite clerics are. Their statements do not reflect Islam but rather the division in the hearts and minds of men who despite their robes and rituals are far from embodying the grace, compassion and love of God, that same God that the Koran speaks of. We do live in a crazy world. A world where we have forgotten how divine and fundamentally connected we all are. My deepest desire is that we awaken, realize that divinity and put down our arms. However, politically speaking, I don’t think pacifism is the answer either as demonstrated by events happening in Tibet. And it is that reason, that I ask the Iranian people what can I do for you from my vantage point? How can I help? Do you need proxy servers? Can we train the people to bypass the filters the government has implemented? Your courage and bravery has inspired me. You brothers and sisters have died, many more are captive and being tortured. May they not have died in vain and long live revolution.
