Bomb in Ahwaz

My flight to Ahwaz was early yesterday morning but after waiting for four hours of delay, the airline canceled the flight blaming it to dust storm in Ahwaz and sent me back to office, exhuasted and lost where I found the news about these bombings in Ahwaz and after a while in Tehran. This is the second time I am missing a bomb in a business trip. Last time, I was about to travel to Indonesia and a huge bomb blasted in the same Hotel that I booked! Street bombing is rare here in Iran and I can not personally recall one in many years. I am still brainstorming to figure out who might be under such attacks and which candidate will be benefited from the atmosphere of fear? Any ideas?

I tell you who is responsible for those blasts. It is the work of american and zionist terrorists. They want to raise ethnic tensions and undermine the elections. People of Iran, do not ever trust the americans, they only care for their own interests. They are only there for you oil. It is in the american agenda to keep Iran a weak and backward country as long as possible. Since america cant invade a much powerful Iran, they are using ethnic violence by incitin arabs, kurds, and baloochis against persians. Iranian people should brace national unity so to defeat these efforts by evil Bush regime. I understand that the Mullahs are not good, but believe me when I say america is laughing on how they are playing you against each other. Freedom in iran should be won by Iranian people alone without outside interference, but america will do anything to distrupt the democracy movements in Iran, because america knows democracy in middle east means poison for it imperialists ambitions. The best way for change is peaceful change, violence only invites more foreign interference. Good luck IRAN, you are the only people that can bring democracy in middle east, thus ending american and zionist imperialist dreams.

Mr. Behi says:
Blaming foreigners for our problem is an easy solution. I am not suggesting that there is no such interference but we should bare in mind that within the last 26 years, we have been blaming most of our shortcomings on this and that prevented us from having an insight look into the problem. If we see violence in Khuzistan, call for independence in Azarbayjan, violence and disobeying rule of law in Baloochestan, one reason can be what you said but in fact, governments in Tehran (even in Shah time) have been always looking down at these provinces. A great deal of discrimination is applied and many qualified local people can not participate in the decision making process in their province because they are local. I think with a fair look at border provinces and providing them with equal opportunities, we will give the foreign intruders less chance of getting support. Local people there should trust the government that they are important and are included in the country. Ahwaz is on top of a huge oil reservoir. Look at it and see how primitive some parts of it is. Taking responsibility pays off better than shooting the ball to the foreigners ground. That will not change anything for the people. Thanks for commenting

alborz is right. i couldnt agree more if i tried.
the mullahs are poison, but ameican intentions to weaken and destabilize iran is death.
and the israelis have a lot to gain, by dismembering iran and weakening it.
there is talk in israel of "balakanization" of the middle east. meaning breaking up iraq, and now iran just like what happened to yugoslavia.
there is proof that israelis do have contacts with iranian kurds and are helping their cause.

obviously the mullahs have run iran into the ground.
but unity is very important at this juncture, iranians must realize that americans and their zionist puppets are out to weaken iran and hinder its growth and potential. this is another example of foreign interfearence and tampering of iranian affairs.
our greatest enemies are from outside, not within.

Mr.Behi says: As I mentioned following Alborz comments, I think this view is kind of hard accept. Look at Kuba, it is the biggest enemy of the united states and closest. Why America can not takle the govenrment as it did on panama or other Caribian countries and like Iraq? because the govenrments although has shortcomings in democracy, makes it for people to believe that they are fairly treated under it's rule. When we have a problem it is not always caused by an enemy, calling it an import from outside like we did in the last 26 years, will not change the case much. people of Khusistan still think they are treated unfair and as much we shout against the US, it will not change the case. Let them trust the coutry and that the govenrment is working for them, they will become the biggest supporters of unity in the country. This is the same I belive for many simple-minded fellows who support US invasion. Fighting this idea need logic not just loud voice for protesting. Thanks for commenting.

Mr. Behi, I totally agree about how to give equal rights to our minorities specially in those provinces. As long as we neglect their importance and discrminate their rights, their dis-like for government and iran will grow, and america is taking advantage of this to weaken iran internally, by incourageing separatist movements. lets not forget that kurds, baloochis, and azeris are all of iranian origin. the arabs in khuzestan are of iranian blood. we should embrace national unity, where all enthnic and religious groups get fair share of equality and freedom.
------------
Mr.Behi says: Fantastic view. We are all humans even if we are not Iranians. Borders are our inventions and if we see the big picture, there is no difference between us. Even if the Arabs in Khusistan claim that it is not Iranian blood flowing in their veins, still I embrace them as humans and humans are respected. But as you mentioned, our goverment is responsible to look at them in a way that they feel the same about the country they live in. Diversity is key to success for any country and we shall take this key from the hole it fallen into. I enjoyed your comment. Thanks

[Alborz]

oh ya, by the way the last post was mine, i just forgot to write my name. anyway, sady mr. behi, your we-are-human embrace has no place in politics. Boundaries will are here to exist for a long time. and since we cannot ignore politics, differences in cultures and humans will exists for along time. So we must look at our countries issue with respect to iranian interest first.
im out, peace

Mr.Behi says: That is very true but it is good to bare in mind what is better than this while doing that. I belive what appears to be good for humanity will be good for local communities at the same time. That is why the model of democracy is becoming a very ideal way for many societies to choose their rulers. Respecting Human rights is something that if we are put our commitment into, will benefit us in every scale from within families to governments and to the wrold. Thanks for you time. I enjoyed reading your words. Hope I see them again for other topics.

I was reading in one of the Iranian blog (or newspaper, can't remember) that the bombing was done by the hardcores in Iran only so that they can blame the Iranian oppositions outside Iran for stirring up fear among people and thus low voter turn-out.

Could this be true, Mr. Behi.

Uhhh...that's scary of you missing two bombs so narrowly :-( :-(. I'm nowadays so scared to travel by plane or go anywhere. Please be careful and take care. Perhaps don't travel that much :).
----------
Mr. Behi says: I eally can not see who exactly can be blamed. There are people inside and outside the government and among the opposition groups stupid enough to do this.

[ali agha]

the arabs, kurds and baloochis in iran have always been marginalized by central governments.
the arabs especailly have never fully reaped the benefits of the riches of khuzestan. high unemployments and discrimination have taken their toll.
now the americans and saudis too are causing problems by supporting them.

the biggest cry of arab iranians is lack of jobs and a better standard of living. if the iranina government had provided better living conditions and jobs, none of this may have happened.
its still not too late to address this problem.

[breaking news]

breaking news, there was two sound bombs which exploded in sistan-baloochistan province in the city of zahedan. looks like the destablization of iran is the main objective of these bombs.

[ali agha]

upon more brainstorming regarding the bombings:

of all the suspects possible, the one making the most sense is the iranian arab groups suported by saudi int and americans.

the saudis arent too happy about iranian meddling in saudi shite regions, so they're doing a pay back here.

the americans want to play mind games with the mullahs and weaken their base. american plan makers had talked about using assymetrical ways to unseat the mullahs months ago. meaning bombings, propaganda and supporing exile groups.

this is meant to show the iranian public that the mullahs are not invinsible and can be defeated.
the plan is to destabilize iran and get the regime change this way. so they can have their oil and gas deals with the new iranian government.

it seems it took the americans some time to establish contacts with the iranian arab groups, probably with saudi assistance. the saudis are active in khuzestan and have actually started a process where arab are converting to sunnism.

[Alborz]

ya, visit my blog, and see that article about destabilization of iran.

The arab population should not be blamed for the ongoing prob;ems in the south .they have already endured decades of discrimination,racism and official apartheid by the persian rulers and as an ethnic group have all the legal and moral means to protect their culture ,history and language.
The true criminal gang that has caused the problems are the persian ruled fascist regime of the mullahs who re trying to impose their racist will upon the arabs in ahwaz and other arab cities and regions.

The arabs have suffered tremendously because of the official aprtheid policies of the previous and present regimes.in reality the persian apartheid and racist regime is carrying out a cultural genocide against the arabs.the arabs are now required to even name their kids from a list that is prepared by the local persian authorities and includes only arabic names that refer to name of shia imams.a truly disgusting and criminal plan.not even israel or the former south african regime devised such an evil plan and carry out a cultural genocide.
I believe that it is the responsiblity of all the iranian people, regardless of their ethnicity to raise their voice and collectively condenmn the barbaric tretment of arab people of iran by the chauvinist persian regime.
--------------
Mr.Behi says: That is right. That is what we are doing here. raising the voice. I belive the ways ethnic groups are being treated there is not tolerable but employing terrorist acts will make it worse and prevents the support from people of other parts of the country. Hope for better days for you in Kuzistan. I love your province and that is a pity for it to be in this condition with all the wealth if has. Thanks for commenting.

[abu hamza]

the true employers of terror acts are the members of the regime itself that executed the young arabs in the streets of ahwaz.the arab people began a peaceful demonstration against racism and aprtheid and employed no guns and or any other violent means.the thugs who employed the guns are the basiji and pasdaran storm troopers of the mullahs .the apartheid and racist policies of the regime are the ones that are driving these folks to use other means.6 to 8 million arab people can not remain silent while being treated as third class citizen in their own ancient land.

THE STRUGGLE OF ARAB PEOPLE OF IRAN IS A NON VIOLENT STRUGGLE AND CONTINUES TO BE SO.IT IS SHAPING TO BE ALMOST THE SAME AS THE CIVIL RIGHT STRUGGLE OF AFRICAN AMERICANS IN THE USA DURING THE 60,S.THIS STRUGGLE IS ON BEHALF OF ALL IRANIANS WHO WANT LIBERTY,JUSTICE AND EQUALITY UNDER THE RULES OF A DEMOCRATIC CONSTITUTION.
