I may have discovered a bit more on Dr. Ahura Pirouz Khaleghi Yazdi.
It would seem today’s appearance at the National Press Club isn’t his first.
More on his project Air-Iraq here.
Update: Another link.
Yazdi is promoting his return to Iran on October 1 for the “Mehregan Festival” as a countdown to freeing Iran. He has invited all Iranians to go with him “to remove the Terrorist Regime using Good Words, Good Thoughts and Good Deeds and to launch a Free, Open and Democratic referendum.”
In the comments section of this thread someone has offered the information that 30 planes have been chartered to fly into Iran over the course of several days. Considering Yazdi’s ties to the U.S. gov’t and according to his Air Iraq website, DynCorp as well, why shouldn’t the Iranian gov’t view this as a provocation towards war? Is that the idea?
Hello to everyone
I read some of your views and it’s good that they are different.
I would not want to see everyone put there heads down like sheeps and follow Dr. Ahura who is not very well known around the world and there is little or nothing about him on the net.
But then again there should be some people supporting him in his effort in the likelihood that he is genuine.
I also hope that things don’t go out of hand and people start mass murdering the people of this regime. We should judge this people and keep them locked up and we should learn from this people. We should abolish the dead penalty.
If murdering happens people will be able to accuse anyone and get them killed. We should not have a bloodbath in Iran witch will eventually lead to chaos like the last revolution.
But what is more important than all of this is that once we get our democracy we shall do what ever to hold on to it and make it stronger.
Sherine ebadi says “democracy is like a flower and if you don’t water it and take care of it, it will die”.
I know that to be true by looking at the American democracy. They are losing it: a court picks (4/7 judges) there president; they have almost no objective journalism on television; they have a high rate of crime; and on and on…
We Iranians that live outside of the country and see the way the west works should go back and have our eyes open not to let Iran follow the same path.
We should build Iran for Iranians and not for the few elites of the west but that will not be easy.
What we need is a second Mossadegh or a Ghandi or a Salvador Allende or a Hugo Chavez and personnaly I don’t think Dr.Ahura is the one. But deep in my mind I want him to turn out to be that man.
