Funny that that old leftie song of Lennon’s has come around to the right.

Too bad no one ask her what she thought of Jimmy Carter.
I watched the documentary “The Queen and I” by an Iranian woman film maker just the other night. It is a great story and really gives clarity to what is going on now. The film maker was part of the communist revolution against the Shah in 1979, but in talking to the Queen, she comes to a better point in her mind.
One thing Ms. Shah said that struck a chord was about when you are twenty years old communism sounds great, but if you are still a communist in your thirties, you are a fool.
Ahhh...the wisdom of age.

Is there an Iran Ping List?
Farah Pahlavi, nee Farah Diba is a remarkable woman. Her book is a memorable story of an intelligent, educated young Persian woman, who, as an architecture student in Paris, met and fell in love with the Shah of Iran.
She is a lovely, gracious woman who has always spoken out for freedom and democracy in Iran. She has lived in Paris since the death of her husband.
Her correct title is Shabanu or Empress. Her son, Reza Pahlavi has lived with his wife and children in the Washington DC area for many year. He is American educated, and a beacon for freedom in the Iranian exile community.
Farah Diba’s biography is well worth reading, especially in the light of the events unfolding in Teheran.
