U.S. warns against Iran visits as fourth Iranian-American detained

WASHINGTON — The United States warned U.S. citizens on Thursday against traveling to Iran, accusing Islamic authorities there of a "disturbing pattern" of harassment after the detention of a fourth Iranian-American for alleged espionage...

Anyone who chooses to go to Iran dishonors those who have lost their lives in IR's prisons and continue to languish in horrid conditions in dungeons of the Islamic colonizers occupying Iran around the country. And honor is sorely lacking among many Iranian-American economic profiteers or pocket book supporters of the regime who have immigrated to the West. One commenter, Parkhash, in response to an article written on this issue puts it eloquently:

The problems with Iranians is that they want to have the cake and eat it too or as is said in Farsi- "yek baamo dou havaa." What your critics don't know is that there are thousands of Iranian refugees who had to leave their home and family behind, never to know if they could ever see them again and live a life of permanent exile in an alien corner of this world. They too have had loved ones and close family but their sense of honour, or gheyrat in our native tongue, has superseded their emotional needs. Nonetheless, if they choose to take the risk and return to their homeland, for whatever reason, they know that theirs may well be a one way journey.And yes I have to use my pen name as I do not have the luxury of protection that many pseudo-Americans, like Kyle Saghafi enjoy when the return to pour their bucks in to the coffers of the Islamic regime.Once again, thank you for your honourable stand.
