About	Islamic Revolution and the rising of Imam Hussein (peace be upon him)or (pbuh) ======================================= The coincidence of the anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution of Iran and the rising of Imam Hussein (pbuh) is a rare celestial event. The bloody battlefield of Karbala, Iraq, witnessed one of the most significant incidents of the Umayyad dynasty in the year 680 CE because the Islamic world was then governed by a number of cruel rulers such as Yazid the son of Muawiyah. Under such circumstances, the humane teachings of Prophet Mohammad(pbuh) were gradually being forgotten, while those who had assumed power in the Islamic world learned how to live the luxurious life from the Byzantine kings and oppressed the poor people. Witnessing such corruption in the Islamic community, Imam Hussein (pbuh) and 72 of his companions left the Hijaz for Iraq in order to reform the society of Prophet Mohammad(pbuh). This was actually the beginning of a reformist movement led by Imam Hussein (pbuh). However, after the grievous martyrdom of Imam Hussein (pbuh) in Karbala, his reformist movement ended and the brutal rulers of the Umayyad and Abbasid dynasties began to repress progressive movements again. A similar situation arose in Iran at the end of the 14th century AH (Islamic lunar calendar) when the founder of the Islamic Republic, the late Imam Khomeini, rose against the cruelty and torture imposed on the Iranian nation by the Pahlavi regime in 1963. Although the Iranians uprising of June 1963 was severely repressed by the Pahlavi security and military forces (SAVAK) and Imam Khomeini was sent into exile. Thousands of Iranian youth were martyred during the struggle against the Pahlavi regime, but nevertheless the Islamic Revolution finally toppled the Pahlavi monarchy on February 11, 1979. At first glance, one may not be able to draw a direct connection between the rising of Imam Hussein(pbuh) and the Islamic Revolution in Iran. However, in light of recent developments in the world, the coincidence of the rising of Imam Hussein (pbuh) and the Islamic Revolution in Iran is in fact the secret code of a puzzle with a specific message. Now that the Islamic Republic is being pressured by the global powers, it is clear that the connection of the rising of Imam Hussein (pbuh) and the anniversary of the victory of the Islamic Revolution is the strong desire of the Iranian nation to work for a brighter future. Iranians feel that the time has now arrived for them to learn a lesson from the resistance of Imam Hussein (pbuh) against tyrants and to try to follow his model. That is to say, Iranian youth should resist the oppression of the U.S. and its allies and continue on the path that the great Iranian nation has chosen.

Why do you want to make enemies for yourself.
Just try to be a simple human being and try to follow the instructions of those messangers in a daily bases and be responsible to the 'TRUTH'.

Leora Long {K:11135} 5/26/2006

Thank you, Kambiz. Now you can help me get elected President, so I can do just that. I would make a good President.

You are a great journalist. I am enjoying your journey through Iran. You could follow my good deeds through this country.

Then the SECOND step would be take RESPONSIBILITY toward that "truth".

Then there are other steps comes after that which are

You did not finish your message, but I appreciate what you said so far. I did not read the article in Yahoo News, if that is what you refer to, but neither am I one of those "in a bubble." I am saddened and even angered by the news every day.

I am raising funds for education, because I believe that this neglected area is where most of the problems lie.

I am not sure if you read that article which I sent you on that link.

It is VERY EASY to hide 'yourself' in a bubble and forget what is going on around 'youself'!
or
Follow the step of Moses(pbuh), Jesus(pbuh) or Muhammad(pbuh) who were all TEACHERS.
If you look at their life story, you would find that the first step for all of them were RECOGNITION, and REALIZATION of what is going on.

Then there are other steps comes after that which are

Wars are terrible. Reading, writing and talking - - and corresponding - are wonderful.

I am committed to the theatre and carry on my key chain the masks of tragedy and comedy given to me by a dear friend I shared the stage with in a play called "What's wrong with this picture?"

People laughed and cried and hopefully thought about the meaning of life - for at least 2 hours.

I do not know how else to make a difference.

Dear Leora
Thank you for sharing your feeling.
Usually when I look at different photographic sites, because of low speed of my modem (26kbps) I read the news on line.
Just a moment ago I read the following news in Yahoo News about USA raid on a poor village which hurt my feeling that a poor civilian old man lost his 24 members of his family.

'US-led attack kills 76 in Afghanistan'

An elderly man, Attah Mohammad, told an AFP correspondent at the hospital that 24 members of his family, including some children, were killed in the bombing.

http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060522/wl_asia_afp/afghanistanattacksbombing_060522135129;_ylt=AriwX4dk58k6Ks8vXbECavvOVooA;_ylu=X3oDMTBiMW04NW9mBHNlYwMlJVRPUCUl

Then I wonder why I am so sad tonite !

Leora Long {K:11135} 5/22/2006

That is a cool interpretation, Kambiz. Let me just say that the world is full of possibilies. I have seen so much good done when people put their minds to it. Of course, some methods are better than others and my heart cries when I see people hurt. The doctor's credo is "do no harm". I wish more people - like you and I - believed in that.

Thank you Leora.
Are you trying to propose to me in order to have a brighter future!?
But you are in USA and I am down here!
Would it be to have each other thru UF and internet as a virtual man and woman? LOL

Leora Long {K:11135} 5/20/2006

Dear Kambiz, I apologize for my especially bad choice of words. I wish a brighter future for us all.

Thank you Leora for your comment.
For the second part of your comment, just say No FT, No comment!

Leora Long {K:11135} 5/17/2006

Thank you Kambiz, that is a rich history and a striking photo. Is it possible that there are also forces in Iran for democracy? I have heard this from my Iranian friends here.
