Diversity might have to wait until Ahmadinejad gets reelected. Only then will it sink in.
Greetings from Caracas, Venezuela!
First of all, much respect and congratulations on your blog! Second, I'm writing you because I'm currently working on a paper dealing with Hamas and Hezbollah's political influence in the Middle East, and I would like to know if I could interview you (via e-mail), since you seem to be so well-informed about affairs and politics in the region. Is this something you are informed or opinionated about? I'm having a bit of a hard time finding objective information, given the Western media bias. I apologize if I have offended you in any way, I'm simply looking for further information and, well, it's not like I can go ask at the embassy, hehe. Have a nice week!
Hi Mitchell- thanks for your comment, though i am not sure i understand it.
Hi vanessa- Why don't you leave me your email in the comments (i wont publish it) and then we can be in touch so i can find out more about you and we could possibly talk about your paper.
Hi Nicky,
Glad to see a new post. Nothing really to argue. A totally whimsical post...sue me.
Best wishes
Hi Niki - It seems to me that there are two schools of thought regarding Iran in American foreign policy right now: one which just wishes that Iran would fall in line, and one which intends to force Iran to fall in line. Despite the atmospherics I don't think the second school will get its chance, which leaves the wishful thinkers. And I figure that just wishing for a pliant Iran never works either. The next milestone for the wishful thinkers is the Iranian presidential election, so on the principle that the wishing school of thought are always maximally disappointed in their hopes, I predict Ahmadinejad will be reelected. That would be the end of the line for both options, and so "new thinking" would finally be unavoidable.
