"別沉醉於自我感覺良好

最先把影片上傳到YouTube和facebook的流亡荷蘭伊朗人Hamed說，他相信這是讓外界理解伊朗的關鍵一步。毋庸置疑，社交網站及民間記者大大改變了我們理解其他國家的方式，就像越戰影像令美國人醒覺一樣。讓伊朗知道世界正在看是重要的，但對我們這些居住在另一世界的人來說，無論我們如何緊貼可信的消息來源，無論如何我們看多少催淚彈煙霧影片，有太多事情我們實在無從知道。我們要小心，別沉醉於「自我感覺良好」，或為人家的抗爭感到情緒高漲得忘記自己有很多不清楚，也並非親歷其境。我不是內達，內達並非我女兒，我有幸能說出這樣的話。

譯者有意節譯，你更有意節録。

"That doesn't mean we shouldn't watch and link and retweet. But it does probably mean we should be awfully wary of enjoying a frisson of self-congratulation when we do, or getting so swept away by the emotional momentum of someone else's fight -- I've seen several bloggers express excitement and even a twisted sort of envy while watching the intensity of the Iranian people's passionate political engagement -- that we lose sight of just how much we don't know and are not actually experiencing. We are not obligated, as compassionate people, to watch the video of Neda's death, but I think we are obligated to acknowledge that not watching, not being there, is an incredible luxury. I am not Neda. Neda is not my daughter. And I am profoundly fortunate to be able to say those things."

由自我反醒慶幸活在樂土變成叫人不要多事再又你手變成「自我感覺良好」，
真有你的。

I feel this is the writier's true feeling....

"-- I've seen several bloggers express excitement and even a twisted sort of envy while watching the intensity of the Iranian people's passionate political engagement -- that we lose sight of just how much we don't know and are not actually experiencing. We are not obligated, as compassionate people, to watch the video of Neda's death, but I think we are obligated to acknowledge that not watching, not being there, is an incredible luxury."

Just add the introduction and the end to sugarcoat the real opinion to avoid being labeled as anti-freedom or iran apologists, etc.... you know those politicians loves these name calling things.

我想作者的原意是，別裝作很懂的樣子，別太濫情，別只站在安全島上對在交通意外的傷者大叫:"I feel you man!"

做些什麼吧，了解多些吧，別因為其他人說「少管閑事」、「你沒資格管」就不聞不問。
