A Matter of Survival

<p> In my long adventurous life I have been through heaven and hell. Yet I am still alive and live with hope. Wondering Why? Because I am Iranian! From the dawn of history Iranian women had equal rights with men. They fought in wars became generals and queens. Iran during its long history was conquered by Eskandar the Arabs the Mongol Genghis Khan and many more. Yet not only its culture and the dignified resilience of its people survived it acculturated its conquerors. Then with the passage of time the west's imperialism changed everything making Iran geographically of paramount importance in their race for dominance. Thus Russia Britania later the United States and now China began their so-called<em> diplomatic</em> endeavours to swallow Iran. What they did how they tried to do it and what is happening now are found in the books I have written. My aim in writing these books is to bring to the awareness of my readers that none of the powerful nations care about democracy nor a peaceful existence in our world. Hence each nation should safe-guard its culture interest safety with wisdom and without prejudice as we are all children of the same God. Saadi the renowned Iranian poet says: <em>'Human beings are part of each other In creation of the same essence. If one is in pain the others cannot remain painless. If one remains unaffected by other's ache one cannot be called a</em> human.'</p>
