...How about a run-down on your interview for those of us who can't seem to get paltalk to work?...

We had a great time. There were a lot of Iranians calling in, more so than non-Iranian Americans. For the most part we were in agreement on the issues. Some were worried that Reza Pahlavi was going to restore the Monarchy, while others expressing their love of him.

One called me an agent of the CIA. .... LOL …I wish.

Probably the most important thing I took away from the show was the attitude that many Iranians hold that the US was the key to their future. Conspiracies are a common conversation among many Iranians. I hope that they can learn to put these conspiratorial fears behind them and become more pro-active in learning to make their case to their elected officials. They need to learn how our system works and work it. This will be important for a post Islamic Iran as well.

The host of the show wants me back. I will let you know when and if we do this.

I hope that they can learn to put these fears behind them and take a more pro-active role in making their case to their elected officials. They need to learn how our system works and use it. This will be important for a post Islamic Iran as well.
