It is just that they need this tension with Iran. All of their history is a fiction, lies. If they don't have this tension, then they are afraid their people will one day realise that their country was always part of Iran, that everthing they've been told in their history were all lies. You know, it's for this reason they don't like Iranian Azaris either. The Iranian Azaris are proud to be Iranian, and this really iritates and confuses the poor notherners (who are in reality very poor in comparison to Iran). These North Azeris are slaves to Aliyev and the small, corrupt, incompetent, and small-minded elite that rules them. And unlike Iranians, they don't yet want or even think about freedom. So no, they are not part of us, and we are not part of them. I really don’t think they “honestly” think that Azaris in Iran are discriminated against.

Interestingly Baku and Azerbaijan were full of Iranian products and goods. Anyways, bottom line is that as an Iranian, I consider my fellow Azeris as part of me as I am part of them and their heritage and culture.

Your experience in a restaurant doesn't validate racist jokes some mean (and mostly uneducated)persians utter about Azeri Turks. Also it is interesting you equate Iranian and perisan in your writing. "It should be noted that the Turks are to the Iranians..." meaning Azeri Turks are not Iranians! Now who really is a separatist? Your English is very broken grammatically by the way, I wish you wrote in a proper English so international audience would get to know better some persian racists trying hard to make a negative image of Azerbaijan or Azeri Turks. Sir/Madam,

I'm Iranian and lived for 1 year in Baku, Republic of Azerbaijan. I found the people there friendly, but most (not all) are very anti-Iranian or anti-Persian. Some really really hate Iran. They also want to free "Southern Azerbaijan", the Azeri part of Iran, as they call it. What do you think? Is that what the people you met want? I found your article and pictures really interesting.
