My mum went to ziara in the mosque of Imam Ali Ridha and some Iranian says to her "Arab khara". The retard had a copy of a Quran in his hand and was at the grave of an Arab Imam.

Generally speaking, I am against racism, but Persian are zibil, they deserve all the racism they get.

They are the biggest cock-suckers when it comes to white people. They love to chase white people, but when it comes to people with brown skin they hold their noses up and consider themselves superior just because they had an empire 2,000 years ago (which got its ass kicked multiple times in history).
I know what you mean, I've been around Iranians too.They are stingy and they think they're superior. I went to a Persian shisha bar once and the Iranians got pissed off because we asked one of the workers to play Arabic music. But it's better to change rather carry on hate and racism on to the future generations. that applies to both Arabs and Persians.

Nice videos again 3ini!

I especially like the part where the speedboat is sailing on the Tigris River and of course the second video where Mosul is seen from the air!

Very good.
