Some feedback on your loooong letter:
I’m sorry but Obama hasn’t changed his stance – in 2004 he stated it ‘may’ become necessary, operative word — may. And today he continues to say that if diplomacy fails all options (meaning military) are on the table. Now personally I am against any preemptive war, or war to gain strategic power, but at the same as an Iranian-American I understand and can live with Obama’s suggestion as much as I hate to see any bombs killing Iranians.
Your comment or assertion suggesting that only ‘few’ Iranian-Americans (I assume ALL being naïve and wobbly eyed) are supporting him is based on no scientific polling – which makes it an opinion and not a fact. An opinion that in my opinion is incorrect – yet I am not righteous enough to state it as a fact.
In as far as another one of your fact less comments suggesting that the regime has killed ~1,000,000 Iranians (not including those that were killed during Iran-Iraq War). This reminds me of the claims that Khomeini used to use about Shah’s regime before the 1979 revolution suggesting that Pahlavi regime had killed ~60,000 Iranians were in fact and as it was disclosed in the work by Emad Baghi in “A Survey Of Iran’s Revolution” actual death toll pre 1979 during the years of 1963-1977 where opposition groups were accusing the Shah’s regime of horrible atrocities (similar to what is going on now) a total of 383 people were killed by the regime. After the revolution started in 1977 and ended in 1979 an additional 2,781 people were killed for a total sum of 3,164. Now I am not suggesting that number of atrocities by this regime is close to what happened on their Shah’s but ~1,000,000 sounds like a typical propaganda lie.

Finally your suggestion to declare Iran a Gender Apartheid country is also a ridiculous suggestion. Not that women are treated equally there but because women are not treated equally anywhere – not in Saudi Arabia and heck not even in U.S. Now the degrees vary but to suggest that the Iranian regime is treating its women the same way the South African government was treating blacks during the apartheid era is disingenuous.
