Very interesting. Of course, depiction of the clergy as foxes in any religion is not unusual, but in most societies, the clergy never manage to establish quite the control they would like to have.

In Iran they did, but I am very sure this is coming to an end. The question is whether it will end violently - or whether the mullahs will just fade away. Personally, I think it will be the latter, and that it will be a sort of "fast fade."

HA! I knew that if they were patient their day would come, looks like dawn breaking about now freedom44.

I'm starting to think we need a "Liberate us next!" pinglist...

I know the liberation of Iraq has had a great effect on neighboring countries because of our superior military force but it now goes deeper than that. These people are seeing exactly what they want through the Iraqi people and I strongly suspect that they will achieve this goal of freedom.....without assistance from us....hopefully.

The maitre d'hotel will take your reservation. There's a Syrian gentleman with a party of 25 million in front of you, but just as soon as we have an opening we'll fit you in.

More power to the Persians! Persia/Iran has great natural wealth and it all belongs to their people. But may they not screw things up like they did the last time!

Off topic: If there's anyone here from Iran, please could you satisfy my curiosity re the author's name? Is "Shalala" a woman's name? Does it mean the same thing ("waterfall") in Farsi as it does in Arabic? I have an interest in Arabic names, and I've never seen Shalala used as a given name before. Thanks.
