Has anyone come across reactions from Iranian-Americans, Iranians, or others in the Arab blogger world (Iyad, etc.) about Ron's comments on Iran last night?
 
My wife is Turkish (lived in Turkey till she was 18) and she was cheering when Ron schooled them.
 
Iran is a fairly westernized society and a good portion of them envy the citizens here in the US. Dropping bombs on these people would obviously destroy that feeling and solidify them against us.
 
Regardless of the fact that shiites (Iranians) and sunnis (most Arabs) don´t "like" each other, all muslims will love Ron Paul because he actually wants to leave them alone and treat them with respect. That´s all what they want.
 
Yes, Turks and Iranians (some Persian and some other ethnic groups) do not like to be called Arabs.

It's like calling a Russian a Celt.

I know a few Iranians (Btw, they refer to themselves as Iranians, not Persians) and they really seem to like him.

Also, please note that Iranian-Americans aren't well connected to their Iranian natives.
 
It's doubtful many Iranians or Middle Eastern people cared about or paid any attention to a U.S. GOP presidential primary debate.

I don't know... given the rhetoric spewed by santorum... if I was an Iranian, I'd be very interested in the debates.
 
Execuse me but being an american muslim and living in the biggest muslim community in the United States I can tell you that Ron Paul is our #1 candidate. most of us wont vote for anybody else. And to date I have converted dozens of muslims including my own family into the Ron family.

Glad to have you with us!

You are definitely excused.
