Even at the zenith of the hostage crisis American ire wasn’t directed at the Iranian people, but at the Ayatollah. That remains the proper target of anti-Iranian sentiment, because it is, plainly, the Mullahs who are anti-Iranian. If they all vanished overnight, there would be an unquenchable party in the streets of Iran that went on for weeks.

Google “night life in Tehran” and you’ll get confirmation in a hurry. There are TWO Irans, and the one the Mullahs run isn’t the popular one.

Your post gives me optimism that things will work out with regard to Iran. The majority of the Iranian people are not hardliners and are average people like the rest of us.

That's why I get perturbed when I hear people talking about "turning the country into a glass parking lot."
