[Publius]

First Publius Essay I've written in a year. So many FReepers don't know about the internecine warfare in the Iranian government. I wanted to explain who the players were by using a little humor.

[Donna Lee Nardo]

Verrrryyyy interesting indeed.... As I read the piece, I was trying really hard to figure out if it was fact, fiction or a bit of both.

[Hamza01]

Brilliant. Not a word I often use. But it applies here. Your appreciation of Iranian/regional politics is remarkable. I worry only that you might actually humanize the mullahs.

Regards

Thanks, Publius, I needed that. In your next essay, be sure to put in all the terrorist training they're doing in Afghanistan now, so they can tie down the Americans in a real quagmire...
