Exclamation Hello Yahoo !

Yahoo Mail website has recently removed "Iran" from the list of world countries in its signup page!
We, the nation of Iran, assume it contrary to professional ethics to deny a nation and violate fundamental human rights for any reason, including the so-called political tensions between states and governments.
We, therefore, ask Yahoo! to add Iran to the mentioned list again and officially provide a plausible explanation for offending thousands of Persian Yahoo! users by removing their country name.
Iran is a country with 7000 years of glorious, rich heritage and extensive history, a land in which lots of great artists, scientists and distinguished individuals have been flourished throughout the ages
You can easily find the great Iran (Ancient Persia) on the world map, shaped like a sweet cat and shining as an eternal star in the sky of peace and friendship between nations.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

if a certain country with the power to do so, decides to sanction another country then reasons should be given. In this case Yahoo should consider its members and act responsibly regardless of pressure put upon them by certain countries.

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Wow that's shocking, try suing them form justice!
It's not a possibility that Iran is listed under another region?

Re: Hello Yahoo !

Yeah, maybe Alex is right. Try looking for a region or group of countries that include Iran (such as the UK, which contains a few as well). Maybe Yahoo! did not remove Iran, just moved it. That little prefix makes all the difference...

Re: Hello Yahoo !

It's because Yahoo! is an American company and America have put a lot of sanction's on Iran and have probably forced Yahoo! to remove them.
