Mousavi Letter

Mr. Mousavi,

It's time for a New Revolution in Iran, you are the opposition leader and therefore I hope the victory will be on your side ! All the best with your fight from The Netherlands !

Can you please post the Farsi version of this as well, and cite your source?

Thank you!

Many Americans want only the best for Iran as well as Iraq but there is always the problem of government when the hearts are not for the people but themselves.

The Bible says it is not that which goes into the mouth and is expelled out of the body that defiles the man. But it is that which comes from the heart and is spoken by the mouth that defiles the individual. Public hatred opens the heart for all the world to see.

What every country needs is men and women whose hearts are set on the people and understand that as public officials they are servants first.

I think even if he was cheated, he needs to be responsible and unite the people of his country.

It's good to fight corruption, but this way will lead to more bad for the country than good.

My condolences to the people of Iran, America went through this w/ George Bush, and he's still not in jail (though we're still working on it). I hope you may have a peaceful solution.

"Power out" this regime by turning on all of the electrical devices in your home and work as a means of civil disobedience. This will result in the electric grid being overloaded and power being shut off. It'll have an effect similar to a workers strike, but your identity will remain safe and you will remain anonymous while protesting the tyranny.

I am ecstatic to see the regime infighting happening today. This is the same guy who oversaw the mass executions of 1980s. Down with the Iranian regime.

Many in the States sympathize with the results of this election. I personally wish that we had the same level of anger to take to the streets in mass protest the way the Iranian people have, though. I hate to see people hurt, or lives lost, but I hope the fight keeps going until the current regime is either forced to have another, truthful, election, or is overthrown. This is not because I want to see violence, or hate Iran, but rather, because I want to see a conversation started with Iran, but we need someone in power who is willing to talk with us.

To Ian,

I am not sure where you live and what rights you are entitled to. I am assuming you have never lived through a revolution or through constant lies and disrespect.

It is time for the people of IRAN to stand up for what they are entitled to. As citizens if they casted their votes that should be respected. I wish all the best to my fellow Iranian citizens and wish the end of this tyrant regime. This will never be without blood shed, but we have endured that as a nation once before.

You, the people of Iran have over-turned an evil regime in the past. Time to do so again.

Yane cheee!! chera bayad ien hama etefagh meyuftad!!

To Ian:

Things have to get worse before they get better. People have to hit a low before things blow up, and that is exactly what is happened in Iran. They are tired of it. Sadly, I wish more people had the guts to stand up for what they believe in like the Iranians are now. How many people do you know who did nothing but complain about Bush being elected a second time? Can you imagine what would of happened had this happened in the USA? Iranians, you are all in our thoughts through this, and hope all works out for the best! Stay safe you guys, but stand up for what you believe in. No one can take that away from you.

May God protect your life and those who fight the good fight for wherever true freedom and justice is to be found.

144 years ago we, the American nation, emerged, not unscathed, from a battle similar to the one now facing Iran. I hear reports of uncounted ballot boxes being burned in cities and towns all over Iran. I see the blocking of phones and internet access. I see pictures of burning and riot and beatings and reports of many death and injuries.

These are NOT the actions of an legitimately elected government. These are the last disparate actions of a fading and corrupt dictatorship trying to fraudulently hold on to just one more moment of power and narcissistic control.

In the recent past, Iran and the US have often been on opposite sides of issues, Iraq being not the least of them. Now, that matters not at all. Whether Iran stands with the US or opposed to it, owns no concern for now. As Americans, it is our moral and ethical OBLIGATION to stand at arms and in support of ANY people who strive to throw off the yoke of such tyranny.

To this end I offer my and my countryman's support. Be you friend or foe in the days to come, for this day, for this fight, we stand with you, beside you. We do NOT require anything in return but for you to succeed. We do this for ourselves and well as for you. Our moral center and faith compels it, not anything material of this world.

When you succeed, as we know you will eventually, we would invite you to stand with us as friends. Know you that as friends we do NOT demand homages, not do we expect, or invite, blind acquiescence to our position. Friends often hold different views, as is ofter true of brothers and family. That does not, and will not, alter that friendship. I do not believe in your god Allah as you do, but I acknowledge him and respect him and value his humanistic teaching so very like our own. I defend and support, as I would my own, your right to your faith and the practices it requires of you. I will stand at arms at the door of your mosque to protect you while you pray.

May God, Allah and Mohammed all praise and support your struggle. Call upon us as need be, and we shall answer.

When I visited Iran, I was struck by the hospitality. Everywhere I went, tea and sweets were being forced on me, and offers of a bed for the night were constant. I have so much love for the Iranian people, I can barely express it.

You are all my brothers and sisters, and nothing can ever change that. Just let us know what to do. I'll stand with you.

Keep safe, stay brave.

These people are serious about democracy. Imagine where we would be now if the people of the United States had been similarly active in protesting the Bush election theft?

Down with the mullahs . down with the dictators.. Long live the uprising , long live democracy. America help us now

The 10th of June is truly a sad day for democracy not just for Iran but all the world. It is imperative that Iranian citizens make themselves heard or risk decending into a new Dark Age in which people are lead to think that which allows the puppeteers to lead men like cattle. Democracy does not favor Mahmoud Ahmadinejad anymore than it favors Mir-Hossein Mousavi, and as such lies the true nature of democracy in all its beauty.

I am not an Iranian citizen and as such I do not have the power which all Iranian citizens have. As such, I leave it to you, the Iranian citizens to make this simple request of your supposedly elected leader. If he was indeed elected as he claims, let him prove it. If he refuses, than only a second election may truly redeem him, whether he is willing or not. All this can be done with no more violence and suffering than your supposed elected leader would enforce. It is time for a true green democracy. I wish only the best for the Iranian people in these hard times. May the true leader of Iran lead.

In a 2500 year old scripture in ruins of Perpolis-Iran, we read " God save this country, from enemy, from drought, from lies "

Ahmadinejad is one big lier of the time.

he is a threat to the world. we Iranians are just begining to see the ways by which he threatens the world. another Hitler is rising.

in the connected world of today, no one is uneffected.

God keep the world from enemy, from drought, from lies...

I am very disappointed in this letter. Is this really the best form of complaint that Mr Mousavi can make about the election fraud which is said to be so widespread? If millions of votes have been rigged/disallowed/altered as he and his supporters keeps stating then there must be hard proof out there to back it up. Yet he does not provide any proof at all. I had expected to see detailed instances, places, times and examples to be given to back up his rhetoric. This letter is only rhetoric and nothing more.

So far I have not read or heard any concrete details of the fraudulence said to have taken place. Why not? Unless he can provide better proof than this to document the claims of fraud then I fear his argument will very soon come to be looked on as just full of hot air with no substance and even supporters of his cause will become disillusioned with his leadership of the campaign. As someone completely independent of Iran or Iranian connections all I ask is proof to be given for claims that are made.

For a country to progress, true elec tion process must be followed.When the elder stateman, the Mullah, imposes on the people, that which cannot be accepted,it must be respected.Failing which will result in anarchy and that is what we are seeing now.For Iran to be saved a new reelection must be held and the Mullahs will only deal with the Quran.The Mullahs should not dictate those obsolete laws and sayings which cannot be accepted by the present generation.There is already a gap and if they insists they will be annihilated.The guards, the police and the soldiers belong to the new generation as such the Mullahs will be defeated.We do not want the elder statesman to be humilated.We want them to play their part in the nation building but at the same time know their limitation.We are living in the 21 st century and so the Quran has to be intepreted accordingly.We urge the two parties to stop the violence and go to the polls and decide.If not it will lead to an endless cycle of violence.

A true leader, must be ready to win and ready to lose. I think Mousavi is not a true leader.
