The Islamic Republic is jealous of the Emirates.

As in, why do they have a successful form of government?

Why are their people satisfied with their government? Why does the world

respect them? And more importantly, why do the majority of

Iranians also see them as having a respectable system of government?

Most Iranians, when they go to Dubai and come back,

bash the Islamic Republic’s officials using Dubai as the example.

Dubai’s prosperity,

the welfare and satisfaction of Dubai’s people, this is what Iranians,

when they see it, compare with the situation in Iran, which has no economic boom,

whose people are not well off and have no satisfaction with the government.

People keep throwing this

in the face of the Islamic Republic’s officials,

saying that the people of the Emirates must have had good rulers,

they must have had wise rulers for their lives to be like this.

And that we in Iran must have had incompetent, thieving, corrupt rulers,

and that is why our situation is what it is now.
