"All this reminds one of the old days of Kremlinology, when Western specialists tried to detect differences between Nikita Khrushchev and Grigori Malenkov on the basis of who had his suits cut by an Italian tailor."
"In fact, there is not a single area of political, economic, social or cultural life in which the two factions defend clearly opposed positions."
So many people in the media don't understand this. I hope they all take the time to read Taheri's piece.
And what a sad commentary on the state of things in Iran, that Taheri makes at the very end.
