The Persian Gulf Will Remain "PERSIAN"! (Petition)
This petition deserves your signature!
Dear National Geographic Editors,
We the undersigned, through this letter, protest your irresponsible and unscientific actions.
This letter is in concern of publication of a map by your organization, which, according to all international organizations, is fraudulent and distorted, and its publication guarantees the violation of undeniable international legal rights.
It is a proven scholarly fact that the name of the Persian Gulf is a genuine name, with historical roots, and using any fraudulent names such as the “Arabian Gulf”, and islands “Occupied by Iran” is in fact inducing political animosity.
We did not expect National Geographic, as a prestigious international scientific institution, to ignore the proven obvious, and damage its own reputation on the basis of political intentions, and thus create an atmosphere of public mistrust in its content, and hurt the national pride of the millions of Persian speakers while doing so.
While announcing our disgust at such a heresy, we demand an immediate editorial review and correction of this publication by the National Geographic.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
Meanwhile... there has been little if any reason to make updates to this blog lately due to the fact that the story still remains the same. The Mullahs continue to destroy the hopes and dreams of all Iranians, they continue to build nuclear weapons, they continue to fuel chaos throughout the Middle East, all while receiving approval from England, France and Germany who feel they have nothing to gain from the removal of the clerical regime!
Cox & Forkum sums it up well:

I'm a newbie. Just wanted to say that I hope that Iran can free themselves and become a democracy!

After reading the two article previously posted, I have to agree that peace in Iraq and between the Israelis and the Palestinians is not possible until there is a new goverment ruling Iran. The mullahs cannot have peace in either location. Peace in Iraq will mean a thriving democracy on their doorstep-never a good thing for dictators. And if there is a peaceful Palestinian state, the mullahs would not have an evil "Great Satan" to keep their people united and to blame their people's suffering on. So, what can we do to help the people of Iran create a democracy???

How closely affiliated is Blog-Iran with the Mojahedin-e Khalq/NCRI groups?
I've emailed the question more than once yet have received no reply.
I'm all for democratic reforms in Iran; however, I'd like to know before I associate myself with the MKO/NCRI. I wouldn't want to end up like Mr. Ashcroft who had to have his spokesperson explain that while he was “supporting democracy and freedom in Iran” he did not “knowingly” intend to endorse a member of any terrorist organization.
So if anyone would care to discuss this efforts connections to the Rajavis et al I'd heartily appreciate it.
Sincere thanks,
Simon W. Moon
