Foreigners in TM Melli

[Ali Doust]

Bud, it's not Farsi:

The word Farsi means Parsi but since Arabs don't have P it turned into F. Languange that was spoken in the pars region.

My point made! Instead of saying something constructive, we turn to matalaks.

Kheylie bamazeyi.

Don't let Arabs ruin your heritage. The correct name for the Persian language is Parsi and the correct term for the body of water south of Iran is the Persian Gulf.

People won't respect our team if we just have a bunch of foreigners in our national team. Even if we are more successful, the credit will go to the foreigners, rather than to our own soccer players. They don't represent our nation. Believe me, no one respects national teams who have players from other countries. If people think Team Melli is underrated on the world stage of football now, imagine how underrated we'll be when people give the cause of our success to foreign non-Iranian players.

As stated earlier people do respect nations with foreigners as long as they are actually a part of that country like Zlatan, Podolski, Klose, Lewandowski, Balotelli, Zidane, Henry and so on The only one person i have met who doesn't respect sweden because of Zlatan is KC. one out of x amount of PFDC members.

So Germany is not respected in the soccer world?

Yeah that's what I meant, players not raised in the country.

No no, I meant players like in Qatar and such who are just given citizenship to play for the team, not the ones raised in the country. If they were raised in Iran and they're good at soccer then by all means let them join!

KC is an idiot that's why. I think he might be a psycopath.

Im not going to argue facts with you. As a nation we SUCK at supporting others. Our communities in foreign countries also suck! While arabs,asians and others strive in the outside world, our people just like to bash each other. The proof is evident. If you actually think that our Kurds would not want a Kurdistan nation of their own, then you nut be living under a rock.
In a nation full of rich cultural backgrounds, we have no national holidays to celebrate the different parts of our country. Why don't we have a national Turkish day or national Tajiki day and teach our kids about our different heritages. Instead we force farsi in all those regions on people who might not ever actually use the language outside of their schools. All in while in Tehran everybody mocks anyone who is from anywhere besides for there. Even in Tehran, north disses south and south disses south. Im just disgusted with all the animosity we have towards one and another.

In a country where you have many ethnicities, everyone must learn one language at school officially! How else will a Kurd and Azeri communicate? Or a Lur and Turkmen? or....
This is not the Balkans where every parochial xenophobic backwards peasant thinks they're the only person entitled to anything and their tribe is the only decent one!
Imagine if every ethnic group in the US wanted to learn only in their own language.
We have Azeri, Kurdish, Lur, Shomali tv stations in Iran - even IRIB does this now.

Turkish day? What the hell is this? Almost all holidays in Iran are religious or political. The only non religious one is Norooz and that is a fully inclusive holiday that doesn't care what ethnicity you have. In this sense Iran does a good job of not pushing any ethnicity on anyone.
Have you lived in Iran?
As for Kurds, I am part Kurdish - we don't want to separate from Iran. What some refugees and family members of shitty groups like PKK and the likes think is not relevant to me or Kurds inside Iran.

As for the rest, you're exaggerating quite a bit. Yeah there are class divides. That happens in any society where the gap between poor and rich is large. A rich Azeri and rich Kurd for example will have alot more in common in terms of long term interests than they would with their poorer counterparts.

You are still incorset my incorset friend.

Just wait until 2022, f it stays in Qatar that is. People will make them a laughing stock when the Foxsports commentators mention it over and over again.

"The small Arab nation of Qatar with the ball. Giovani van Baghareh passes the ball to Short Al Kootah, switches it wide Nkutu Somali, taps it back Bruno Lionel Sergio Javier Palacio... itll be a joke

Only if they have been living in Iran more than 10 years and strongly feel Iranian. In my opinion, let's not mix national teams with club teams.
