"Did anyone read the book "Reading Lolita in Tehran" by Azar Nafisi 2004 Random House Books? It's a very interesting read about a group of Islamic women in Iran secretly getting together to study and read classic literature like 'Lolita' 'The Great Gatsby' etc... which are banned by the Islamic Republic. What we take for educational granted in the USA these repressed women took on dangers just to enrich their lives with great works of literature. So the so-called professor-like Ahmadinejad is more like a repressor in banning books of learning. You liberals should be extroadinarily grateful for the freedoms you have here and stop trashing the USA... fools.
They've also been at war with us since '79 or earlier...our government knew it too...appears they've ignored it that long...so I have to agree with you...time has run out...
Good find!
Thank you!
