Yes, any problem with that?
I was providing an explanation why an ethnic people would be protesting their own country: These are second and third generation Americans of Iranian extraction whose fathers and grandfathers owed alliance to the Shah who attempted to Westernize his country.........and was thrown out and persecuted because of his allegiance with the US and Western 'ways'. They left Iran because they were the businessmen and the intelligensia of their country who would be in prison for not going along with the the radicals that took over Iran. They don't particularly like the Imams and Mullahs.
How many of your Iranian friends have served in the United States armed services?
I have no bloody idea, my friend.
But, just the same as we have gathered Iraqi nationals to form a "government-in-waiting" for when we liberate Iraq we may need these people to lead their countrymen when Iran's Mullahs are finally overthrown. Alternatively, some may in fact be working for the US military and the CIA already, since we desperately need 'native' speakers over there, and here, to translate al Qaeda and Iranian communications.
Different people serve in different ways. If someone is working as a Farsi language translator, or working with the CIA etc. he is not going to broadcast it. It would be stupid to make a target of himself, *and* probably against the rules of his job anyway. It's not fair to assume that because someone isn't doing "A," he isn't doing anything.
That these Iranian-Americans are out showing support for the US is fantastic. We need to encourage them, *and* the "samizdat" movement in Iran as much as possible. In this regard I am far more disappointed with our US State Department than with Iranians who have become US citizens.
