Three funny pieces by Nabavi
I wonder if you have read the last three pieces written by Ebrahim Nabavi, they are really funny (in Persian):
• Charges against Saddam
• How to Win Friends
• Value of people's lives
most of his articles are effective and also interesting. But i totaly hate his character. Do you remember his court? i call him as a "Hezbe Bad" man. i adore and respect reformists such as Dr Aghajari who still insists on his idea. Not this man who changed his idea suddenly when he was under pressure. Politic needs brave men and women. Nabavi is a coward man regardless of his talent in writting.

Nabavi has always been a satirist and a writer, recently a political satirist. He was neither a reformist activist nor a political leader or anything. Did you ever think Nabavi was a political leader? I didn't.
His court was actually very funny, as far as I remember everyone in the court was laughing. He didn't change his ideas (as you can see he still writes), he only admitted that he "went too far" sometimes, and also apologised from everyone who was insulted by his term "Frog Eater" :-)))
You know, Life is not a joke. When you know your life is in danger, you will do anything. I mean, life is a very personal matter, you cannot EXPECT people to risk their lives in every condition. Remember something: we are trying to make a reform in order to LIVE better, not to DIE better.

Even Galileo denied his discoveries in the court!!! Yet he is not known as a traitor or a coward!!! And I shall add that the courts in Iran are very similar to the courts of europe during the dark ages!

Maybe you are right ,but what about the people such as Cheguara ? what about the people who have lost their lift for their idea ?what was the main point of "brave heart" ?
Nabavi worked in the most of reformist newspapers .i never take him into account as a reformist since he does not deserve to be a reformist .
More over ,PArethisan you wrote that "He didn't change his ideas (as you can see he still writes)" ,is it important ? writing in a forign country is valuable ?

:-)))))) what's the relationship between "Che Guevara" (ARMED communist revolutionary comrade in liberation of cuba) and Nabavi (newspaper columnist)??? I think Nabavi writes to make us laugh not to kill himself!
Why don't you go to Iran, defend the true reform and die in that way?

West ender
you are right my example was not appropriate but i just wanted to mention that he lost his life for his country and also for his idea (without considering that it was true or false).
More over i dont think that Nabavi wants to write to make us laugh otherwise he can write a joke. his writing are totally political .More over no one has been killed in Iran court yet.
after 1377 when that guy from intelligence ministry was arrested. Killing writer was stoped .what do you mean by "write to kill himslef"? the worst case is Dr aghajari which is clear for ever one that no one can kill him.
thanks

Mehdi I understand what you're trying to say, but my point is "You cannot expect everybody to die for something". You might want to go and die for your idea, but you cannot expect everyone to do the same thing. Others might prefer to live and enjoy their ideas, in Iran (if possible) or in Europe, wherever they can. Nabavi is just a writer, his job is to write, in Iran or elsewhere, doesn't really matter. If you don't like him don't read his writings. it's very simple.
