http://www.kansascity.com/entertainment/story/1260094.html “Iran and the West” (8 p.m. Monday, National Geographic) originally aired in England and is redubbed here with American voices. This two-hour program melds terrific video and brisk storytelling to give a complete, if not thorough, history of the past 31 years since the legs of the shah’s throne started to wobble. Nat Geo is the most non-bias thing you can hope to get real info about this revolution from. tune in! | ||

From wiki: "Rafsanjani has three sons: Mohsen, Mehdi, and Yasser, as well as two daughters, Fatemeh and Faezeh." Yeah, the 1st. Although, it'd seem rather foolish to do anything to him/his family, considering: Currently he holds the position of Chairman of the Assembly of Experts[2] (a deliberative body of Mujtahids that is charged with electing, monitoring, and dismissing the Supreme Leader of Iran)... | ||

Every human belief is fundamentally irrational because there is no *complete* rational basis for any human action (i.e. we cannot know for certain the outcome of an event and largely we cannot predict it either). So every government is founded on fundamentally heinous assertions and every government is as scary as a theocracy. | ||

It's used as a tool, usually because you can mobilize through it, and it's difficult for the government to intrude on it like it can in other sectors of community.
