you can be kurd and … you can be kurd and iranian, but not kurd and persian. doesnt make any sense, but be who you wanna be its your life, just dont put down kurds by calling our fight silly. We have a right to determine things ourselves, to learn our language, and raise our flag. We want no war with anybody, especially not iranians.
Hey guys STOP it , … Hey guys STOP it , if his last name is kordestani it really does not mean he is kurd give it up just be proud he is like all of us a PERSIAN (or for those who prefer Iranian) i am kurd (my great grandpa and from Kermanshah) but i see myself as a PERSIAN and thats all .
so put aside your stupid fight and try to learn something from his speech .
god bless america and long live OMID e AZIZEMOON

Much agreed! Maybe, … Much agreed! Maybe, I wasn’t specific. I’ve nothing against the Kurds or any other ethnic groups in Iran. Whether we are Persians, Kurds, Azeris, Turkmens, Lurs, Baluchis, Mazandarians, Turks, Arabs or Bakhtiaris, we all represent the same country with glorious history and culture. In my previous comment, my point was that Omid Kordestani is born in Tehran, as he also mentioned in the video. His ancestors may well be Kurds from Iran, as his last name implies. But, still, he is born in Tehran.
Neither Iran nor … Neither Iran nor Persia would not exist without Kurds. There are 1.5 million Kurds living in Tehran. Born in Tehran would not make you Fars.
why let someone who … why let someone who wipes himself with SJSU resumes give the commencement? This man’s company will never recruit at your school, SJSU. And he’ll never donate, so quit kissing his .
No, hole! You … No, hole! You listen, you ing sucker! What are you trying to prove? Are you suggesting that he is a Kurdish Iranian, despite the fact that he *EXPLICITLY* said that he is born in Tehran? Well, I guess You, the geography “expert” know better than him… Maybe, you could teach all these non-experts here about his life. And, yes, I’m proud to be Persian, with or without your permission. Now, go ride your camel and shut your butt so no more leaks out of it, wad!
thanx 4 uploading … thanx 4 uploading this clip. very impressive and inspiring. for God`s sake listen to what he says. suppose he is from china to end this fight !
