Cohen's Latest: "Iran's Tragic Joke"

Mr. Cohen I prostrate myself before you.

Read his latest column here where he writes:

Iran is not some banana republic. The events since the night of June 12 have been a shameful interlude. Iranians have not digested this grotesquery.

No, Iran is not a banana republic. It’s a sophisticated nation of 75 million people. It pretends to a significant role in the affairs of the world. It’s a land of poets who knew how to marry the sacred and the sensuous and always laughed at the idea of a truth so absolute it would not accommodate contradiction.

Awesome.

Marjane Satrapi op-ed in New York Times

I don’t know how I missed this, but Marjane Satrapi, author of the famed Persepolis series has written a very moving op-ed in the New York Times that was published on July 3rd.

From now on, I will always say: Once you leave your homeland, you can live anywhere. But I refuse to only die in Iran. I will one day live in Iran…or else my life will have had no meaning.

wow.
