It takes great moral clarity and courage to stand up for one's belief in the face of vehement opposition from one's own peoples. Prejudice and conceit that brings people to hatred that drives them to kill innocents is an evil that every human being should stand-up to. True Peace is when we learn to live and let live with compassion.. no matter what race or religion.

@Nick-di9dv The borders of Palestine start from the sea and end at the river. If you are too dumb to understand it, Gaza plus, West Bank, plus whatever is renamed Israel after 1947 is all Palestine. You are welcome.
I agree completely. Good points. I spent 8 years in Turkey, a Muslim country and pretty much experienced kindness and immense generosity everywhere I went. I was never harassed. There, I met many Iranians and found them to be so kind, warm and shared memorable times with them. Most westerners are so propagandized (and don't know it )and think only "the West" has the answers. We have much to learn and share with our Muslim, brown, black, and non-western brothers and sisters. Thank you for sharing your experiences.
Did you meet any Kurdish people in Turkey? (They can't admit it openly without fear of the police, but they might have had something to say about Turkey and the Islamic Republic. Free Kurdistan!
@@daniellehebert2048 That's good, so maybe things are better than in the late 80s when I was there or maybe not, I just read this, lots of info about continued repression of the Kurds in Turkey: (from The Conversation mag) "Suppression of Kurds Kurds are often denied equal access to political representation, economic resources and cultural freedoms compared to the majority Turkish population. One of the clearest examples of their political marginalisation is the closure of Kurdish political parties. Since 1990, five Kurdish parties have been closed by court orders in Turkey. This strategy has perpetuated the conflict instead of fostering dialogue for a political solution. In many ways, this approach mirrors the initial British strategy in Northern Ireland where criminalising and excluding Sinn Féin from peace negotiations only prolonged the Troubles... -"
I do agree with your point though, that there lots of kindness to be found everywhere among individuals and we can learn from everyone, and they can learn from us too.

Lol you are both women?

@@Champz2323Ok, let’s examine injustice throughout the world, not just in Iran. Right we’ll start with the hegemonic and imperial power which is the US and work our way down through a couple of hundred nations. Ok nothing to see in the US of A. No slavery, no genocide of the indigenous people, no near extinction of the bison(see Ken Burn’s brilliant documentary on the subject), no racial segregation, no 2.5 million incarcerated, no national health care, extreme poverty, homelessness. A clean bill of health there. Now we’ll look at the US’s sycophantic sidekick which we’ll call Squealer, aka Britain. There have been plenty of state collusional extrajudicial slayings in Ireland. Legislation has just been passed shutting down any investigation into these dirty deeds. Leave out your silly whataboutrey.
I judge you to be a fine, honest, decent human being and I fully support you. Well done on the award, totally deserved mate! And as usual, I completely agree with you. Just keep doing what you do dude! :) x
You are spot on without a single drop of doubt, I cannot express how much I admire your words! You sir deserve every love coming your way, may the lord bless you endlessly :)

Congratulations on the well deserved award! I'm unsurprised by the hypocrisy of your critics. I wonder what it'll take to humble the superiority complex of the West.
Thank you for being a human on the ground experiencing others as we should! The US Congress has never been more despicable! Congrats! Keep on your positive path!
Tadhg, you are a guy with a BIG hart, a conscience that does not allow you to be silent, and you are sharp as a tack (your arguments are clear and logical.)
Absolute truth and clarity as always. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We all need to check our biases every single day and challenge every response we have to every issue and ask ourselves why we feel/think/believe what we do. At least that's true for everyone from the western world, but it's a good practice for any human. Safe travels and solidarity to you, Tadgh!
Tadhg! You do you. And thanks for shedding some light on the ppl and not the govt. Folks have to realize that they are two separate entities as you have mentioned in the video
Honestly, the government is still superior to most governments I've seen or heard of. I don't really agree that they are two separate entities. (Speaking as an American-Iranian living in Iran.)
Tadhg, your easygoing honesty and truth telling is refreshing. More than that, it is immensely reassuring that people can really be invested in truth for its own sake, without some corollary motive of gain.
Masterful Analysis, Tadhg!!! Congratulations on your reward/acknowledgement. Well done, you! If we had to embrace the policies, morals and ethics of every country, any of us have had the good fortune to visit, none of us would leave our hall closet! People have to invent issues in order to put bubble wrap around their belief systems and prejudices, so they never have to reflect upon their validity or decency. "The unexamined life is not worth living." Socrates

Congratulations on the award brother.. well deserved. Enjoy your trip and stay in Iran, beautiful country, great art and food .. God bless you always for speaking the truth
Welcome to Iran, Tadhg! I'm glad you had the opportunity of seeing my country yourself. Congrats for the well-deserved recognition! As an American born Iranian who has been living (by choice) in Iran for many years now, I'd like to add to what you said. I'm not apologetic for my people *or the government.* We have our faults, but I've seen far, far worse in other countries, and presidents like Mr. Raisi or leaders like Ayatollah Khamenei are blessings that few countries can boast of. (Sadly, many people still don't realize that the same media which has been lying about Israel has been their source of information about Iran. I invite them to come visit and see things for themselves. As you pointed out, Iranians are very warm-hearted and kind.) 😊
Congratulations Tadhg for being recognized for your selflessness and compassion for humanity. I know you are not doing it for the accolades.

As a younger and much fitter man, I would Protest every, Greedy Western Capitalist War that I could. Today all I'm capable of, is Praising young Men and Women such as yourself and the few, older generation, who remember Why We fought those battles. Blessings from New Zealand.
What an excellent questioning of western perspective, Tadhg Hickey! Absolutely bang on.
The world needs more honest people like you.
You said it Mr. Tadgh Hickey! Thank you for standing up and saying it like it is and exposing western hypocrisy and double standards!
Absolutely, I mean the west are the ones stoning women, preforming FGM and killing rape victims. Sorry for being the best and most civilised/tolerant people in the world.
My wife is from Iran and we moved here three years ago. I love it here ! It is conservative sure...but strangely I feel more free here than I did in Canada. We are staying in Iran. It is a wonderful country.
Thank you a million times. Common sense spoken politely and intelligently.
Oh man. He’s always so SPOT ON!!🩵💖💚
There does seem to be rather a lot of 'pot calling the kettle black'ism these days. While ashamed of my government and media in England, where I was born and raised, I am proud that I have some Irish and Scottish blood in my veins. Keep doing what you're doing Tadgh ✊🇮🇪🇵🇸🏴🕊️
Brother you deserve that wonderful award. You have been, you have encourage us to understand what was happening to Palestine for 75 years, all this time most people believed the narrative of the Zionists leaders, congrets 😊❤🎉
You are genuine Tadgh. You ought to be recognised as a true morality person the West has yet to learn from. Congrats!
The man who's funeral he attended is known as the Butcher of Tehran (overseeing executions of thousands). He should have gone to Iran to stand up for ordinary Iranians who weren't at the funeral, and for the Iranian disapora, who need the world's support. Just because the West is fucked too, doesn't mean we need to think the Iranian government isn't.
Congratulations Tadhg!!! Well deserved and very encouraging!
If forced to look away from the horrors taking place in Gaza for a moment, I can say I am thankful that I have become familiar with this mans work, his morals and the truth he speaks. Thank you Mr. Hickey.
I'm an Iranian, and I was crying the whole time watching this video, thank you for coming to Iran and be there for us when we lost our president, thank you for your touching word about our people, and you are forever welcome to Iran 🇮🇷 ,I hope someone makes you happy, the same way you made me happy by speaking about the truth.
What about when women are beaten for not wearing a hijab?
Love you guys and love your president may his soul rest in peace ❤
May he rest in peace and Iran is a beautiful country. I'm sorry the mainstream media doesn't portray your country properly.
@@zaynab.313 thank you, your saying means a lot to me.
@@alaanasser3243 I wanted to tell you that I really appreciate your words and it really made my day, it means a lot to me.
Congratulationsss Tadhg. You deserve the recognition for your endless support. Keep on talking about the truth, brother ! 🇵🇸🇮🇪🇲🇾
Great reflections and video! Thank you for all you do to raise consciousness in the hypocrisy of politicians
Thanks for supporting humanity. God bless you and yours.
Thank you for adding your voice to the plight of our brothers and sister in Gaza. May Allah reward you for it. Congrats on the award!
Well said 👏👏 best of luck
You owe nobody any explanation. Anyone who is upset about you visiting Iran can cry themselves a bloody river if they are so pained. Enjoy your time in Tehran, please, and as you said, the people are truly warm. No fake smiles like we have in the West.
😊😊😊❤❤❤❤
Enjoy your time,! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
There is nothing to justify Tadgh. We are all behind you and the truth that you bring out for everyone to see.
You've always done brilliant job. Entire Muslim World appreciates your Work.
Well said Tadgh! Absolutely on point 💯
Greetings to you too. Love you, man, for staying on the right side of humanity!
As an Iranian in the US - this guy speaks the truth!
Thanks for paying respect to Sayyid Ebrahim Raisi 🤲🇮🇷

Stay Bless forever more, beautiful brother 🙏🏽❤️💜❤️💜
Congratulations Tadhg! The truth cannot be silenced. Keep up the good world!
Our biases are so conditioned that we don’t even realize we are doing it.
Awareness is key.
Thank you for all that you point out over and over.
❤
Love this comment 💗
Lol you are both women? Women don’t have rights to legally fight against domestic abuse, lol so I could literally beat you guys and face 0 consequences legally, like maybe justice by mob, but thats unlikely when 66% of women face domestic abuse, as well if they don’t wear the towel on they’re head they can get 10 days too 2 months in jail, with a fine of 50k up to 500k rials depending. Women should really be on women’s side.
Glad to know that you're in Iran right now.. Greetings from Pakistan..🇵🇰❤🇮🇪🇮🇷
I met an Iranian 23 years ago in London, He wrote à kind word on a sheet of paper and gave it to me, l still read that note till today. I hope he is alive and well ❤
Hello from Iran 🇮🇷
Welcome here
Congratulations for the prize you get
Thanks for this heartwarming video ❤
Thought this was a sketch and you were enacting the country of Iran.
Got increasingly hard to grasp until I realized you're actually IN Iran speaking YOUR thoughts 😂
Edit: And thank you! Nail on the head as usual! Much love from Finland, you give me hope!!!
As an Iranian, Wow I'm SO happy you've come to Iran! Congrats on the prize you won, well deserved 🇮🇷❤️🇮🇪!!!
As an Iranian myself which is Heartbroken for the recent passing of our beloved President, Kudos to you for being brave and standing for what you deem right.
Same.
Wish you all the best
We must not be silent while witnessing injustice. Honor to Palestine! Honor to everyone who supports Palestine! 🇮🇷🤝🇵🇸
There's a fair bit of injustice in Iran at the moment as well, shall we be silent about that?
@@Champz2323oh please as Iranian I ask! Did u know about Iran except what western media say about it??
@@muhadesehh524 yeah, aljazeera has a lot to say about those executions
@@Champz2323 come and see u will be my guess in my country
@@Champz2323Ok, let’s examine injustice throughout the world, not just in Iran. Right we’ll start with the hegemonic and imperial power which is the US and work our way down through a couple of hundred nations. Ok nothing to see in the US of A. No slavery, no genocide of the indigenous people, no near extinction of the bison(see Ken Burn’s brilliant documentary on the subject), no racial segregation, no 2.5 million incarcerated, no national health care, extreme poverty, homelessness. A clean bill of health there. Now we’ll look at the US’s sycophantic sidekick which we’ll call Squealer, aka Britain. There have been plenty of state collusional extrajudicial slayings in Ireland. Legislation has just been passed shutting down any investigation into these dirty deeds. Leave out your silly whataboutrey.
Well said Tadgh! There doesn’t seem to be any end to western hypocrisy. Congratulations on the award and please keep up your amazing work!
Welcome to Iran brother. The truth will overcome finally. Wish you great great moments in my beautiful Iran
I judge you to be a fine, honest, decent human being and I fully support you. Well done on the award, totally deserved mate! And as usual, I completely agree with you. Just keep doing what you do dude! :) x
Will never judge you, Tadhg! Love your work! Greetings from Bulgaria.
Peace for Palestine ☮️❤️🇵🇸
lots of love from Iran
You are spot on without a single drop of doubt, I cannot express how much I admire your words! You sir deserve every love coming your way, may the lord bless you endlessly :)
Awww Iran is incredible MashAllah
Iran has helped the Palestinians and the resistance more than any country. ❤ Iran
Congrats on the award. Well deserved.🎉
Have a great visit to the country. Congratulations on recognition of your amazing work 👏. Your truth is shining like a beacon for people that are searching for more to be learned, more to be told. 🙏🕊️🌍☘️🍉
i am jordanian and i visited iran and i love the people and the government so much ❤
in imam ridha grave the workers are very kind
i see a lot of people on the street
the people are very kind and good
and the government stands up fot palestine and the only one that does
god bless iran and the iranian people
Beautifully said… thank you for having honesty which we can barely find anymore
Wow. This was honestly one of the best from-the-heart videos of yours I have ever seen. Thank you, mad lad. Keep up the good work.
Go anywhere you can, meet all you can, see all yoU can. You're a pure heart and the people love you of course. All the Iranians I know are delightful. The world is so much better when we MIX!!
I spent 5 years living in China. Very similar end take. Welcome to the rest of the world, my friend. It is a big and beautiful place with a lot to teach all of us. Thank you for getting the message out.
So refreshing to hear these words from a ‘white' guy.
He's Irish. They're amazing people. They're white but they suffered themselves colonization and apartheid by other white people (the British).
God rewards and bless you more for you humanity ❤❤❤
Love Iran 🇮🇷. Subscribed from Iceland 🇮🇸.
Congratulations on the well deserved award! I'm unsurprised by the hypocrisy of your critics. I wonder what it'll take to humble the superiority complex of the West.
Great question.
Thank you for being a human on the ground experiencing others as we should! The US Congress has never been more despicable! Congrats! Keep on your positive path!
Tadhg, you are a guy with a BIG hart, a conscience that does not allow you to be silent, and you are sharp as a tack (your arguments are clear and logical.)
Tadhg, speaking truth and exposing hypocrisy like always! Respect!
Absolute truth and clarity as always. Thank you, thank you, thank you. We all need to check our biases every single day and challenge every response we have to every issue and ask ourselves why we feel/think/believe what we do. At least that's true for everyone from the western world, but it's a good practice for any human. Safe travels and solidarity to you, Tadgh!
You sir, are a stallion amongst mules. Thank you for your courage.
We love you, Tadhg! Enjoy your visit to Iran, one of the most beautiful places on Earth.
Tadhg! You do you. And thanks for shedding some light on the ppl and not the govt. Folks have to realize that they are two separate entities as you have mentioned in the video
Honestly, the government is still superior to most governments I've seen or heard of. I don't really agree that they are two separate entities. (Speaking as an American-Iranian living in Iran.)
Great statement, yet again. Thanks Tadhg.
Tadhg, your easygoing honesty and truth telling is refreshing. More than that, it is immensely reassuring that people can really be invested in truth for its own sake, without some corollary motive of gain.
Excellent and to the point as always! ☮️
Masterful Analysis, Tadhg!!! Congratulations on your reward/acknowledgement. Well done, you! If we had to embrace the policies, morals and ethics of every country, any of us have had the good fortune to visit, none of us would leave our hall closet! People have to invent issues in order to put bubble wrap around their belief systems and prejudices, so they never have to reflect upon their validity or decency. "The unexamined life is not worth living." Socrates
I'm Iranian. Thanks for visiting our beautiful country and I hope you get to be invited by people who are so hospitable, see some extraordinary historical sights and relax in the amazing landscape! I love your comedy and thanks for having such a big heart and living your authenticity 💗
Onya Tadhg! Blazing a trail for justice, peace and humanity. Congratulations on your achievement, it is truly well deserved. Solidarity from your NI brother.
Well said Comrade. Hope you had a fantastic time. I'd love to go to Iran, x
Congratulations on the award brother.. well deserved.
Enjoy your trip and stay in Iran, beautiful country, great art and food ..
God bless you always for speaking the truth
Welcome to Iran, Tadhg! I'm glad you had the opportunity of seeing my country yourself. Congrats for the well-deserved recognition! As an American born Iranian who has been living (by choice) in Iran for many years now, I'd like to add to what you said. I'm not apologetic for my people *or the government.* We have our faults, but I've seen far, far worse in other countries, and presidents like Mr. Raisi or leaders like Ayatollah Khamenei are blessings that few countries can boast of. (Sadly, many people still don't realize that the same media which has been lying about Israel has been their source of information about Iran. I invite them to come visit and see things for themselves. As you pointed out, Iranians are very warm-hearted and kind.) 😊
You surprise me. Great seeing you in Iran.
Kind regards from Bosnia and Herzegovina! You have my respect for all the great things you are doing!
You can't help the haters. Happiness and compassion require emotional intelligence...
Nevermind, have a great trip and thanks for your humour.
