The Sacrifice
September 28, 2005
Folks:
Allow me to yet share another private issue about myself, with you. Shall this issue shed some light on your inquiring minds. Certain characters in Iranian politics/media have been opening their mouths & throwing random statements that I do what I do for getting attention, opportunism, fame & power!
To respond to all of these attacks & to devalue all the attackers' bases of argument, I am going to share, yet another interesting point of my life with you.
During last month, I had two job offers. The first position was Dean of Math/Science for department of Math & Science in a college. The second position was Director of IT for department of Information Technology in another college. Both positions were in Southern California & financially, both positions were "6 Figures" a year positions. I have turned down both positions to concentrate on creation of the new IPC Website!
Let's do a cost analysis, shall we?
Once the new IPC Website publishes, it will be a fully commercial site; therefore, we will make money off of this site, through advertising, affiliates, donations, products, etc.
What will we do with this money?
We will add this money to our own money & my own money, which we have been spending on IPC Operations & Iranian Opposition. The total sum will be used to further support IPC Operations & The Iranian Opposition. So in a way, the affiliates, the advertisers, the donors & the product purchasers will support IPC, therefore, they will support the Iranian Opposition.
Why must they support IPC Website?
This is common sense. For instance, when they advertise in IPC, they are not supporting some webmaster's life style, bank account, belly & under belly! By supporting IPC, they will support the IPC Operations, Iranian Opposition as a whole & Freedom of Iran.
So whom should the responsible advertiser support?
It is a no brainer! Should they support Freedom of Iran, so their money plus our money combinely funds this cause? Or should they support some Bang & Salavat gossip site & the fat belly of its webmaster?
But the main question remains:
What's in it for me?
Absolutely nothing!
Basically I have refused 2 different "6 figures" positions to build this website for nothing! My profit will be zilch! I will make Jack Shiite out of this deal!
Why am I doing this? Am I an idiot? Or am I an opportunist? Or do I do it for attention? What's my benefit from this action?
The answer is very simple! I do it for Nationalism. I do it to educate my fellow countrymen & women. I do it to accelerate the social revolution through the moral revolution by facilitating the mass education for the cause of mass information.
Now, you be the judge!
Please state your opinion:
Am I an idealistic fool, mentally challenged or simply stupid to do such sacrifice?
Or
Am I setting a higher goal & standard for Iran, Iranians & myself, by doing so?
Why am I doing, what I have been doing on my own (for 27 years) and with IPC (for 6 years), day in & day out?
I could simply stop what I am doing & put this effort into piling capital on top of capital in my bank accounts & live a comfortable, care free, peaceful & luxurious life. We must do sacrifices, our comrades are doing sacrifices right @ this moment & they are doing so, inside & outside Iran. I figure, I must do my share.
We have 6 & half million Iranians in exile. If every person would contribute 5 lousy dollars for the cause, the total would be 32 & half million dollars! I would call that a Great start to End IRI & Start a Free, Secular, Federal Democratic Iran, wouldn't you?!
So what is my motive for doing what I do? You be the judge?
I hope I have answered my critics, well!
Only if closed minds came with closed mouths!
My comrades and I are up for the Cause. Time will tell, if you are also up for the Cause! Are you up for the Cause?
More power to All freedom fighters of Iran
