Advisory Group X, with you in the lottery, lottery registration for American Green Card ended, with fifty dollars in America, build up your future …This is one of the many of sites and companies that these days have an increasing number in Persian. Companies that have felt the need and know that even if, going to the United States holding a green card can remain a dream, but possible with the policies of the U.S. Department of State allowing foreigners to stay in the United States. Each year, the U.S. Department of State organizes a lottery for foreigners to obtain the Green Card based on a quota for different people who participate in this lottery. People whose name is drawn out can by fulfilling the conditions arrive to the United States and live there. For many, it seems more like a dream, but it is true.

He used to write on ”Boycott” website from time to time. His last post is still there, “Begging letter of Ahmadinejad”. If the information on the site is exact, it has been posted on the Twenty-Sixth of January two thousand and eleven. Madhi was not a very capable writer. And he was not used to tell the truth. His data was burned. It was clear from the beginning that he does not enter the the red line of the system, I mean the leadership. He tried to create an organization, “The Fellowship Movement” with a few people close to him …But what really did happen when the ”Fars News Agency” announced on Wednesday, June eighth, 2011 that a controversy documentary is going to be broadcast on channel one? All of a sudden every body realized that ”Sardar”(Madhi) is not trustful?!
Why every body was reminded of all the ”we already knew” after the documentary ”Diamond of Deception” ? The interesting point is that many of us, as journalists, have had interviews with Madhi and undoubtedly it was related to his suggestions of an interview with him.

At that time, under the leadership of the Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan composed of the political veterans such as Dr. Ghassemlou, Dr. Said Sharafkandi and a number of other friends who were politically very experienced, policies were built up which became the base of ideas and strategies that the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan and the Kurdish people follow. Although at the time, the Iranian people in general did not like these policies. Then, when the Islamic Republic referendum was conducted, the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan was one of the parties who did not participate in this referendum and boycotted it. As a result, a few people in Kurdistan participated in this election. . The reason behind it at the time was that this regime with its basic ideas cannot guarantee freedom for the people of Iran. We then had objected to the way the referendum was going to be conducted. The question was either Islamic Republic or monarchy.

We are witnessing interactions between two different part of this system.The Government of reforms against the fundamentalists, occasional independent behavior of President Hashemi Rafsanjani which was very authoritarian but the Leader’s word had, as always, more weight.
