That guy was not a true Iranian :: Reader comments at Daniel Pipes

Submitted by Kourosh (Netherlands), Dec 24, 2011 at 02:16

Iranian is a multiethnic society, the man you most likely met was an Ahwazi Arab from Iran. These views are not typical amongst Iranians, but tend to be very popular amongst Ahwazi Arabs who live in Iran. The leadership in Iran is not ethnically Iranian either.
