I'm Jadi. A 27 years old from Tehran / Iran. I blogged for years at my farsi weblog (www.jadi.net) but these days I'm FILTERED in my own country so I have to write here in english. It's shame but it is the situation !

I am keeping an eye on freedom of expression, censorship, internet filtering and ...

Note: english IS NOT my native language. I'm not good at it. But I think writing in poor english is much more BETTER THAN not writing at all. But I'll be glad reciveing friendly editorial, spelling, grammer, ... comments and I'll fix and learn.

Why am I staying at Iran?

by Jadi on Thu 21 Aug 2008 09:29 AM PDT | Permanent Link

Hello,

I am a American that has left the United States to live in a more peaceful, relaxed country (no military!).

I recently came across your blog and enjoy it very much. I have a question for you, why do you stay in Iran considering
that is seems like your life could be in danger (for blogging)?

Best regards,

Hi *****,

Many people are leaving Iran but just imagine what will happen if all of leave the country. There
should be some people to do the change. I'm not talking about heros, I'm talking about ordinary people
who should stay here, demand their rights and ask for the change. Irans Islamic regime saya "All Iranians
are with us and all Iranians are demanding nuclear research". I have to stay in Iran so I will be able to say:
"No :) I'm an Iranian and I do not support you nor nuclear research."

Yes. Staying here is difficult and dangerous but while I can tolerate the situation, I'll do my best to stay
here and say my word.
