Get out of your Orientalist and patriarchal chair and talk to brave Iranians who were part of the Green and other revolution attempts. Talk to the Iranian refugees in the Republic of Georgia, terrified of the regime and teaching this Jew Persian swear words to say to the Mullahs. Talk to them paranoid at being disappeared by Iranian security services abroad. Talk to them as they came on boats to Australia. Talk to them who are watching relatives being hung by cranes for rap music, or women beaten, imprisoned, raped and hung. Talk to real Iranians- many who have friends and relatives in Israel. People who know of 2500 year presence of Jews in Iran. Talk to the Kurds and Azeri speakers of Iran.

You have obviously never been to the region, and never interacted with Iranians in a meaningful way.
