Shahab der wein aus den gedichten ist ein anderer, auch im Koran wird den gläubigen wein versprochen
Wein hat in der Poesie eine andere bedeutung genau wie andere begriffe wie Baum, Wal, Wasser usw...

[Shahab3]

@Seccad

Das stimmt doch garnicht !

Du höchster Herr, des Glaubens Hort, der ohne Ruh
Urteile fällt und Strafen mißt jedwedem zu,
säufst dich am Blut der Sünder satt wie wir am Wein !
Sag, wer verdient der Hölle Pein? Wir oder du?

.. von Khayyam

Spülte nicht der Wein den Kummer aus der Seele uns heraus,
machte bald der Zorn des Schicksals unserm Leibe den Garaus.
, Könnte nicht im Rausch mitunter unser Geist vor Anker gehn,
würde all die Leidensstürme unser Schifflein nicht bestehn.
Ach, noch jeden nahm der Himmel unbedenklich sich zum Ziel.
Keiner war, der je gewinnen konnte dieses arge Spiel.
Finster ist's, wo bleibt der Chisr, der den rechten Weg uns lehrt,
eh das Feuer der Entbehrung gar den ganzen Leib verzehrt?
Meine schwache Seele zog es sehnsuchtsvoll zur Wiese hin,
wo, vom flauen Wind umfächelt, ich dem Tode wollt entfliehn.
"Schenke", rief ich, "Arzt der Liebe, gib mirWein!
Nur Wein allein kann mich retten, kann vertreiben alle Angst und Herzenspein !"
Doch, was half's? Hafis verbrannte! Und der Freundin blieb's verhehlt.
Gebe Gott, daß es mit sanftem Flüstern ihr der Wind erzählt!

...von Hafiz

Da gibts keine alternative Interpretation, als das Gesöff WEIN !

Shiraz ist weiterhin der vermutete Ursprung des Weins.
Wein hat Tradition in der Persischen Kultur. Das kann man nicht ernsthaft leugnen ! :wall:

[Seccad]

shahab du irrst dich

"Schenke", rief ich, "Arzt der Liebe, gib mirWein!

Artzt der Liebe (Gott)

Was schenkt er Liebe natürlich =Wein


Doch, was half's? Hafis verbrannte

Durch den wein nämlich (der liebe) zu Gott

Ausserdem leugne ich das mit dem richtigen wein nicht, das hat nicht nur in der persischen kultur na sagen wir mal eine tradition, ändert aber nichts daran das es verboten ist.nur hat hafez damit nichts zu tun

Blow to Iran's reformers by Moussavi's refusal

Wednesday, October 13, 2004 - ©2004 IranMania.com

LONDON, Oct 13 (IranMania) - The man Iran's embattled reformist movement had hoped would be the Islamic republic's next president, former Prime Minister Mir Hossein Moussavi, has rejected calls for him to stand in next June's elections, a senior offical said.

According to a top reformist official, Moussavi put an end to weeks of lobbying by his pro-reform backers -- including incumbent President Mohammad Khatami -- by stating he had no wish to return to the political fray, the official news agency IRNA reported late Tuesday.

"Unfortunately Mir Hossein Moussavi, the Prime Minister from the glorious Khomeini era, has refused to be a candidate in the presidential elections," said Mehdi Karoubi, the former reformist parliament speaker.

No explanation was given.

With Khatami's second and final term in office due to come to an end in June 2005, the reformist movement had been rallying behind Moussavi as the best hope of dragging it out of a political wilderness.

Reformists are badly isolated after most of their candidates were barred from contesting February's parliament elections. Conservatives and hardliners now control most public positions except for the executive.

Abtahi named presidential advisor

Wednesday, October 13, 2004 - ©2004 IranMania.com

LONDON, Oct 13 (IranMania) - President Mohammad Khatami Tuesday accepted the resignation of Vice-President for Legal and Parliamentary affairs Mohammad Ali Abtahi and later appointed him presidential advisor, Iran's State News Agency (IRNA) reported.

Abtahi resigned in protest over the impeachment last week of then Minister of Roads and Transport Ahmad Khorram.

He had earlier this year tendered his resignation in protest at the Guardian Council`s barring of many reformist candidates from running in the parliamentary elections in February, a move which he termed as "undemocratic."

Vizepräsident tritt zurück
Reformpolitiker Abtahi will nicht mehr mit Konservativen zusammenarbeiten

Teheran - Der iranische Vizepräsident Mohammed Ali Abtahi ist am Dienstag zurückgetreten. Als Grund nannte er, dass er nicht mit dem von den konservativen Kräften beherrschten Parlament zusammenarbeiten könne. Abtahi, ein Vertrauter von Präsident Mohammed Khatami, hatte erstmals im Februar seinen Rücktritt eingereicht, der damals aber noch abgelehnt wurde.

Abtahi war als Vizepräsident für rechtliche Fragen und für die Beziehungen zum Parlament zuständig. Er betonte, er werde Khatami weiter beraten und stehe zur Reformpolitik.
...
Abtahi dagegen ist vielen Konservativen seit längerem ein Dorn im Auge. Es war nämlich der bisherige Vizepräsident, der den Fall einer in iranischer Haft verstorbenen iranisch-kanadischen Fotojournalistin Zahra Kazemi ans Licht brachte.

Russia Says Finished Building Iran Nuclear Plant
Thu Oct 14, 2004 07:22 AM ET

MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's top nuclear authority said on Thursday it had finished construction of an atomic power plant in Iran -- a project the United States fears Tehran could use to make nuclear arms.

"We're done. All we need to do now is work out (with the Iranians) the agreement on sending spent fuel back to Russia," said a spokesman for Russia's Atomic Energy Agency (RosAtom).
...
The 1,000-megawatt, $800 million Bushehr plant is due to be launched in the next year or so and reach full capacity in 2006.

The RosAtom spokesman said work still remained to be done on assembling some security and control equipment.

Iran's hardline MPs try to block Rafsanjani

LONDON, Oct 15 ( IranMania) - Several hardline Iranian deputies have proposed a law that would stop those over 70 years of age from standing in next year's presidential election -- a move that would block a comeback by powerful former president Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, AFP reported.

According to the Shargh newspaper, deputies have already begun drawing up a text and could present it in 2005.

"The current law only states that Iranians over the age of 30 can be a candidate, but does not provide an upper age limit. We would like to correct that," conservative MP Reza Talai-Nik was quoted as saying.

"In the past 25 years, no person over 70 has held an executive post," he added.

Contacted by AFP, the MP said the text "has not yet been finalised", and added the age limit could be set somewhere between 70 and 75. He also revealed that "some politicians are opposed to such a law".

Conservatives who now control the parliament, or Majlis, used age as one of their campaign platforms in the general election, calling for the "older generation to make way for the new generation."

The Shargh report did not say if the text was specifically aimed at Rafsanjani -- who will celebrate his 71st birthday next year, is seen as a pragmatic conservative and who has been openly mulling standing in next June's polls.
...

Also Rafsanjani wäre garantiert ne Nummer zu heftig. Schön, daß die Iraner das auch so sehen...

heißt dass, ( bei 10 milliarden mehr als erwartet ) dass das iranische wirtschaftswachstum dieses jahr wieder höher ausfallen wird, als erwartet

[Shahab3]

Das kann gut sein. Allerdings hätte das in diesem Fall keine Aussagekraft, weil die Mehreinnahmen ( über Erwartung ) ja durch den hohen Ölpreis verursacht sind.
Wenn der Iran das Geld aber, wie angekündigt, in die Wirtschaft investiert sehe ich darin durchaus einen Vorteil für das Wirtschaftawachstum.
Und es muss ja auch einiges getan werden. Es gibt genug Betriebe, die ihre Waren nur noch durch staatliche Subventionen an den Mann bringen können, weil die alten Maschinen unwirtschaftlich produzieren. So zwischen total überaltert und hochmodern gibts nicht viel. Und das muss sich in nächster zeit ändern.

Iran among top dam builders

LONDON, Oct 17 (IranMania) - Iran is one of the world's top dam-building countries, the managing director of Iran Water and Power Resources Development Company said, adding that Iranian contractors are capable of implementing major dam-building projects in other countries as well.

Ali Akbar Zahmatkesh told the Persian weekly Barnameh that over 80% of the equipment used in dam-building projects is produced domestically, stressing that Iranian engineers design most of the plans.

"At present, some 4.3 trln rials in development funds have been invested in hydroelectricity development projects," he said, adding that these funds could help add some 800-1,000 megawatts of power to the country's overall power generation capacity.

The official hoped that the ratio of power generated from hydroelectric system to the entire power generation capacity would increase by 20% by the end of the fourth development plan in 2010.

Zahmatkesh further noted that estimates suggest Iran has the ability to generate more than 50,000 mln kilowatt/hour of electricity per annum.

Iran to launch first spy satellite by spring

By Amnon Barzilai

Iran will launch its first spy satellite in March or April 2005, Uzi Rubin, head of the Defense Ministry department responsible for ballistic missile defense, predicted over the weekend.
The launcher will be based on Russian ballistic missiles adapted by expatriate Russian experts, Rubin said. These experts have significantly advanced Iran's ballistic capabilities, he said, among other things, by significantly improving the accuracy of its Shihab-3 missile.

Iran is currently developing three satellites. Two are small, weighing 20 to 60 kg, and are expected to be launched mainly as a test. The third weighs 170 kg and will carry a telescopic camera for espionage purposes. That is the one that Rubin expects to be launched next spring.
...
Israeli experts believe that the Shihab's new shape is meant to foil the Arrow. "We go crazy about Iranian progress in the nuclear field, and forget that the missiles Iran is developing can do us damage even with conventional capabilities," Rubin said.

Statoiland Hydro compete for Iranian oil

London, Oct 18, IRNA -- Norway`s two largest energy companies, Hydro
and Statoil are competing against each other to develop Iran`s giant
Yadavaran oil field, Oslo daily Aftenposten reported Monday.
Hydro was said to be also engaged in the latest round of bids for
new exploration licenses in Iran, while Statoil is already involved
in the development of South Pars gas field.
Deputy head for development affairs Seyyed Mahdi Hosseini said
last month that five international companies, including Royal Dutch
Shell and Repsol of Spain, had presented their proposals to a tender
for developing Yadavaran in southern Iran.
Yadavaran, which is estimated to have reserves of 17 billion
barrels, is the new name for both Koushk and Hosseiniyeh oil fields
after it was discovered they were connected.
The field is thought to be capable of producing an average of
300,000-400,000 barrels per day. The results of the bids are expected
to be announced within the next few months.
