I have to say, how stupid can these Iranian Jews be to live in Iran, I am truly baffled by this.

I'm pretty sure all the Mashadi Jews have left Iran by now.  They either live in Great Neck, Long Island, Queens, or Israel.  Maybe there might be some of them in Los Angeles, but I can't say for sure.

I can't see why they wouldn't leave.

I was born in the U.S., but my family is Mashadi, so I guess that also makes me Mashadi, according to some people.

Whether they leave Iran or not is their own choice but I appreciate that under the cruelest situations how these Mashadi Jews could survive and keep intact their religion and identity.

I think Mashadi Jews should not leave Iran rather the muzzies who tortured them should leave all the places forever.

This will probably shock you, but many of them consider themselves to be Iranian despite having lived in America for many years.  They like living in America and are grateful for the opportunities available here.  But they still consider themselves Iranian.  I guess it has to do with the fact that Jews have lived in Iran since the destruction of the first Temple.
