      Thanks Rick Steves for your comment about Iran, I am Iranian , I live in USA almost for 11 years, but I would love to go back to my country, but because of regime I am not able to. As you said” we are not Arab and we do not speak Arabic”. We are Iranian “Persian” and want to live the same as other people in world in freedom.

      What i really like about Rick Steves travels, e.p. Europe, is that whenever he comes in contact with a hot chic, he always maintains his cool!!;)

      Great understanding of Iran’s culture but remember that not all Iranians are persians. I assume he wasn’t allow to go to the Kurdish parts of Iran as they have their own culture and are more liberal.

      i just think this man is incredible. it makes me so happy that people like him have discovered the true iran and not the iran shown in the media.

      i just wish iranians could break free from the humiliation of the iranian government. lets hope the young people who are risking their lives in the protests can make a change.

      Now just imagine for a moment, the removal of usury from our western economies, the removal of national debt that is conjured by the international banking cartels.
      No heartlees corproations that will come & take your house if your can’t meet the interest payments.
      Imagine……..what could we do with all that energy?

      Wow! This was terrific! I think that “GLOBALIZATION” should take on a NEW MEANING! All the people of the world UNITE against governments and religions that spew hatred and war. UNITE in FREEDOM FOR ALL!

      That was a terrific lecture. I’ll remember the “Death to traffic!” anecdote for a long time. It’s refreshing to see someone do a piece on Iran and NOT looking for the worst. I hope a few minds will be opened by this well-balanced, sincere effort to increase understanding.
      Having said that, I remain concerned for the safety of Baha’is in Iran. I have Baha’i friends who were forced to flee Iran or lose their lives. I’m glad that Rick didn’t entirely ignore that issue.

      Excellent Lecture. I’m travelling there in April 2009 with a group. American group to be specific.
      My question is: Are regular tourists allowed to use camcorder during travels?
      Thanks.

      i strongly believe our politicians should give us that kind of historical feedback of our relationship with other countries we have issues with. We are in need to understand the world better.. and i mean we the people of the United States. We have detached and for that same reason lied about the rest of the world such as Iraq.
