Iranians aren’t Arabs. They are persians. Small difference mind you, but completely different languages and attitudes.

Oh absolutely - but there are some Arab tribes living in Iran - a few people said it might have been those who beat up dissenters, but that was refuted by tweeters such as StopAhamadi who pointed out the different pronounciations of those and the Palis.
