Zinsky:

I will be going to Manhattan few times a year. One of these days I will take the train from Grand Central Station to Boston. I really want to meet you in person. May be I can time it with Farzad as his sons lives in Manhattan. It will clear up a lot of things 

I know you can ☺️

Shahin, global trades is just one element of it. And that is not the issue and it's a good thing. Like any other concept or philosophy it derails and other things come in to play with it. If this was an ideal world of peace and no animosities then sure. But political landscape is unpredictable and dynamic.

 

That's a good move by Biden.

Zinsky well said about your expectations from America. We can easily open up a new chapter of discussion which is called Globalism but we have to go deep in it. Globalism is essentially what has turned US around.

 

 

And there is a fight against it all over the world but foremost it had very negative impact on America. Globalism essentially trying to make USA an ordinary country. The land of opportunity you and I stepped on when we came here had USA totally separated and decoupled from this BS of globalism.

 

 

They also tried and to some extent were successful in changing the meaning of Nationalism and the term Nationalist. Basically from a person's great love for their nation and someone who has sometimes fought for his or her country to an ideology that a person's nation is superior to all others. They try to exemplify it with Hitler.

 

 

Anyways this is a long exhausting subject and so let's not continue.

 

 

As KAmkAr said there is good / bad everywhere and nothing is 100% perfect. At the end you compromise and you chose the best package that suites you. For shahin is Santa Barbara, for you is Portugal. For me is a combination of bases in Iran USA and Portugal.

 

 

Once again I am thankful and grateful for having the opportunity to make a choice. One should also be thankful of what they have as little as it is and the rest will fall in place. Life is a reflection of your thoughts.

I read Rashti's post. Here is the reason for the split within these two group:

We could not agree on the fact that mullah regime was an existential threat to Iran as a nation which was proved later on to be true by the unfolding of the events. One group believed America was the reason and did not want to hold mullahs accountable. This group was influenced by mullah regime sympathizers on the site that had financial and ideological reasons for their position to the point that could not and still cannot support any of the struggles of women who are demanding to remove their hejab and not get killed for protesting it
