\nJehan sanaat<\/strong>
\nRouhani praised for response to US candidate question<\/span><\/strong>
\nAn editorial in Saturday\u2019s Jehan sanaat newspaper praised Iran\u2019s President Hassan Rouhani for his response to a question about which US presidential candidate Iran favors to win the upcoming US election. The editorial said that when the same question was directed to former Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki, he replied at the time that Iran wants the weaker candidates to win the US presidential election. Rouhani, however, said that it makes no difference to Iran which candidate wins the election. The editorial points out that Rouhani could have responded by saying that Iran has prepared two strategies dependent on which candidate wins the election, so that it would not be taken by surprise by the outcome, but had not done so.
\nIt further pointed out that the Iranian fundamentalists might have responded to this question by stating that there\u2019s no difference between the candidates since the USA can\u2019t be trusted, but listening to their words in private, it\u2019s clear that they\u2019re closely following the course of the election and the candidates\u2019 views on various issues. Iran seems generally to be expecting the Democrats to win, although the administration believes that Donald Trump will deal with them better, especially in obtaining concessions from the nuclear deal.
\nIf one compares the costs and gains, however, it\u2019s clear that Trump\u2019s reactions cannot be predicted or calculated, the editorial continues. More especially on issues such as Syria, Yemen, and Iraq, Trump\u2019s actions could change drastically depending on fluctuations in the situation in these countries, with these changes not necessarily in Iran\u2019s interests. Trump\u2019s conduct during the election campaign shows the volatility and unpredictability of his behavior and demonstrates that it may go through sudden changes, although some analysts hope that as soon as Trump enters the White House, he will calm down and his officials would prevent him from rash actions.
\nHowever, the editorial points out, the special experience of George W. Bush and his Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice shows that the personal character of the US President can have major effects on policy and on the world, with the Tehran regime believing that from a cost-benefit analysis perspective, the effects of the arrival of Donald Trump in power would not be positive.
\nMoreover, the editorialist points out, it is the Democrat party which has been responsible for planning and implementing the nuclear deal, with the arrival of the Democrat party in the White House opening the way for Tehran to deal more confidently with Washington. A win by Hillary Clinton would ensure that the US government would probably include some minister from the Obama administration and would greatly facilitate further progress on the deal and further expansion of relations.
\nThe bottom line, the editorial concludes, is that while Iran sees its interests in this election as being best served by a Hillary Clinton win, it also sees the possibility of major gains from a Trump win, although the latter would make the regime nervous about possible aggressive US action or intervention in Syria, Iraq, and Yemen, ending up in greater escalation of problems than during the Obama era.<\/p>\n

Afarinesh daily<\/strong>
\nIranian internet users and beneficial use of the internet<\/span><\/strong>
\nThe editorial in Saturday\u2019s Afarinesh daily newspaper analyses the latest statistics on Iranians\u2019 internet usage from a social and cultural perspective. According to data issued by the head of the Digital Media Technology Information Centre at the Ministry of Guidance, Iranian internet users each average a massive five to nine hours daily online compared to the global average of 16 hours per month or half an hour per day.
\nThe figures for Iran, meanwhile, show that Iranians spend a collective 14.6 billion hours per year on the computer and playing mobile phone games, with Iranians ranked as the world\u2019s biggest users of social networking sites.
\nIranians\u2019 record average of five to nine hours online daily reflects social and psychological deficiencies and a lack of realistic goals within Iranian society.
\nIt is well known that the internet in Iran faces many problems, such as low-speed and high cost of services, as well as the government\u2019s blocking of many or most social networking sites and news networks, the editorial continues, suggesting that the internet has become an escape route for young Iranians to get away from the pressures and the social reality around them.
\nThe editorialist suggests that in order to change this miserable reality, rather than chanting slogans, issuing warnings and blocking websites, Iran\u2019s leaders need to reduce the problems driving young people to adopt this escapist mindset, which are largely related to large-scale unemployment which adversely affects the psychological state of society so that the young people will be more motivated to spend time in a positive way working towards real objectives rather than in escapist pursuits.<\/p>\n

Kayhan newspaper<\/strong>
\nsWho pays the fare<\/span><\/strong>
\nAn editorial in Saturday\u2019s Kayhan newspaper ridiculed Rouhani’s remarks upon his return from New York, in which he said that America has pledged to implement its obligations under the nuclear agreement with European countries, The editorialist asked how it\u2019s possible to trust the USA when it has already breached its promises to meet its obligations in regard to the nuclear deal and shown that it won\u2019t respect its own word. Even the European countries have been blaming the United States for it’s not complying and adhering to its obligations, the editorialist continued, including signing in the nuclear deal, and Iran could see the abortive results of this. Iran should be grateful, therefore that the agreement was not only for the USA but also with another six major powers.
\nIran has, in fact, already achieved a lot as a result as a result of this agreement, but the personal nature of the Iranian require continuing pressure to maximize its gains; the regime wants to prevent the Western powers from imposing any sanctions on it for any reason, even if it complies with its commitment to freeze its nuclear program. Iran wants to exercise its support for terrorism, and for sending troops and militias to fight across the region, as well as its persecution and illegal executions of ethnic and to provoke unrest in neighboring countries without being subjected to any penalties in response, forgetting that the sanctions imposed on them, were not all concerned with their nuclear program.
\nThe editorial calls on the Rouhani government to present a report on his meetings with the foreign ministers of the P5+1 nations to the Iranian people, which should explain why European countries still fear US sanctions in the event of banking cooperation with Iran. It also asserts that the European countries have not implemented their commitments, although the United States announced that it had implemented all the pledges made as part of the nuclear deal.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAhmed Alam Alhuda, Mashhad city Juma\u2019a Imam said in his speech yesterday that Iran\u2019s warriors or what he described \u201cAlharam Defendants,\u201d but not the nuclear deal, have prevented war on Iran. The US and the ISIS would have been fighting in the middle of Tehran if it weren\u2019t for them, he added. President Rouhani has officially announced that the West has failed to meet obligations of the nuclear deal, which raises a question about how could such deal prevent war? He wonders. Arrogant countries are afraid of the warriors fighting in Iraq, and they have arrived in all regional countries that are considered American proxies, Alam Alhuda claimed.
