IRAN: The 4000-year-old Cradle of Civilization. This audiovisual item is narrated in Persian. It was Broadcast on one of IRAN TV channels on October 21, 2007. It shows that the people of IRAN ("Land of Aryans") have continuously lived on the Iranian Plateau (covering West & Central Asia) -- without any interruption -- for the past 7,000 years. Iran was formed 4,000 years ago when the EAR ("Aryan") tribes of the Iranian Plateau united and called their new union EA-RUN ("Land of Aryans"). Despite having been situated in one of the most dangerous & strategically significant crossroads of history & despite having been invaded several times during its 4,000-year-old existence, no force - no matter how massive & strong -- has ever been able to conquer the identity of its people. An immensely complex and colorful civilization based on love, compassion, and harmony lives on.

For under $400, U will have a 24-hour non-AIPAC-tainted English news, movies, and more than 100 other international channels with no monthly subscription.

Apr 12, 2008 - No, actually modern usage of the term mesopotamia is defined as the land between the Tigris and euphrates which is entirely located in iraq, though indeed also included is western iran.history of this culture spans to the 6th millenium BC.

Apr 13, 2008 - Quote:Mesopotamia: " Region SW Asia between the Tigris & the Euphrates extending from the mountains of E Asia Minor to the Persian Gulf."Mountains of E.Asia are Afghanistan mtn,Alborz,& Zagros Mtn.The land that today is called Iraq was Persia,the Arab Iraq is very recent,even Baghdad was built by Sasanid in the 6th century then Abbasid made Baghdad their capital.Since 3k yrs ago Sumer, Achaemenid, Macedonian, Parthian,Sasanid,Umayad,Mongol, Ottoman,seljughi,Safavid, even Brits ruled the area.

Apr 13, 2008 - The Eurocentric term denotes all of the middle East as "Greater Mesopotamia". This usage came into only modern times.

EcKoWR Says:
Apr 13, 2008 - But the historical designated geographical and cultural definition has always referred to the land between the Euphrates and the Tigris, and Western Iran. Mesopotamian culture originated in Iraq with Sumerians, Acadians, Babylonians, and Assyrians all belonging to a race apart and contributing a world of literature, mathematics, science, agriculture, astronomy, medicine, and religion.
EcKoWR Says:
Apr 13, 2008 - it's Persian influence constitutes only the most latest bit of its existence(Achaemenid) 6th to 4th century BC is a tiny fraction of Mesopotamia's entire history which spans from the 6th millennium BC.

Apr 14, 2008 - Recent pottery found in Iran with 10,000 yr age. Also in Northern Mazandaran area they've found tools claimed to be near 400,000 years old which tops the previous 50,000 year signs. If I remember correctly, the oldest human remains found is about 1mil years and it's found in Africa.

Apr 22, 2008 - Persia was great but not the first in the world. Sumeria, mesopatamia & egypt was older. But Indus civilisation of ancien india was oldest. They have discovered pottery and building bricks ect dating back as 9,000bc which makes it the oldest civilisation. Its time history book changes.
HattiAssyrian Says:

Aug 30, 2008 - Political Prisoners of Iran- According to political historian Ervand Abrahamian, "whereas less than 100 political prisoners had been executed between 1971 and 1979, more than 7900 were executed between 1981 and 1985. ... the prison system was centralized and drastically expanded ... Prison life was drastically worse under the Islamic Republic than under the Pahlavis
Wanderer8383 Says:
Aug 30, 2008 - In 2004, Iran ranked second in the world by total number of confirmed executions having carried out 159, coming behind the People's Republic of China, who committed at least 1,770.[127] In 2005, the number dropped to 94 confirmed executions, either by hanging or stoning, though returned to 177 in 2006.[128]
Wanderer8383 Says:
Aug 30, 2008 - The Iranian legislation follows traditional precepts of Islamic shari'a, and thus accords more rights to men than women. This is shown in several articles of the Iranian civil code:[21] In the section of the penal code devoted to blood money, or Diyya, the value of woman's life is half that of a man ("for instance, if a car hit both on the street, the cash compensation due to the woman's family was half that due the man's") [22]
Wanderer8383 Says:
Aug 30, 2008 - the testimony of a male witness is equivalent to that of two female witnesses. A woman cannot travel by herself without the written permission of her father or husband.[23]

Sep 26, 2008 - how is the weather in Tel Aviv? Did U know that your employer for typing this stuff in Utube is in fact a "bogus" system since it would implode & collapse in less than a year if it doesn't get the annual $3-billion handout from US? Israel is nothing but a military outpost of the US Weapons Manufaturers in the Middle East Frontiers.

Apr 12, 2008 - Iran is part of Mesopotamia. Mesopotamia includes from Todays Eastern Afghanistan to Iran, Iraq and Syria. Iraq was part of Iran when Baghdad was built about 1400 years ago. Iran's latest discoveries show pieces of art and plates going back 10,000 years. Iran had a modern federal government, constitution, city water system and Bill of Rights 2500 years ago during Hakhamaneshi Kingdom (Achamenid) of Kurosh and Darioush.
