We know you're different than Iraqis 2. Glad to hear there is freedom 3. Especially for the women 4. So no-one is getting stoned? (and I don't mean "high") 5. The media is a mess - we hate them too. 6. I had friends from Iran in college and I know they are good, smart decent people. 7. I think your president is as crazy as ours is. 8. If an American tried to come live in Iran, what would happen? (I am seriously asking. I had a friend who had escaped Iran at 14 and he said I could never go there because of my blonde hair and blue eyes.) 9. I am American and I truly think Iranians in Iran hate me. 10. Oh no, please don't let the Christians in. There will be hoards of fundies on your doorstep wanting to "save" you. :( 11. Are you the government of Iran trying to trick me? Or even my own government trying to trick me? 12. The phrase "pulling your/my leg" means to joke on someone. For instance, if I told you elephants could fly, I'd be pulling your leg. :) 13. I think over 80% of Americans now want the war in Iraq to end. Do Iraqis hate you? Is there any way your country and your people could help stabilize that region? 14. I personally can't wait for Bush to be out of office. When will your president be voted out? 15. What will you do if a woman is elected as the next U.S. president? Will Muslim governments refuse to deal with her? 16. How can we as civilized people (I mean you and me and our countrymen/women) convince the fundamentalists to STOP blowing things and people (and children) up? This was going on long before the war and is really really sad. :( Thanks for your essay. It was informative. :) P.S. Do you have charities like we do to help the poor or help people after disasters and such? 1. We know you're different than Iraqis

"Do not make a sculpted image or any likeness of what is in the heavens above..." Hope you never made a bird in art class or a turtle carving for your home and gardens club. If your children have, then I suggest you tell them that they have made Satan happy. Don't want those sins to add up. In other words, don't quote the Bible for the messages that you didn't insert will come back to bite you later! The Harry Potter series is not to be blamed for this. It just proves that parents have not given their children the proper teachings. If HP did not exist, then there would be letters like this speaking out against Bugs Bunny and how he influences children smack while eating carrots. If your child does not know the difference between fantasy and reality, then you as a parent have not done your duties. Besides if television must raise a child, I'd rather J.K. Rowling do it than most of those other things out there. As a child I knew that if I hit someone, that they'd feel pain, and that guns caused people to die. It's the people that tell their children that grandma was tired and needed some rest, that raise the murderers and pagans. Tell your children from the beginning, "this is not real, Daniel Radcliffe is a real boy over in europe" etc. and sit down with them while watching the making of the movie. If the parents don't take responsibility for not even being there while their child is watching television and explaining what it is that they see, then the creator of that show/movie is not to blame for the lack of guidance. In this case all television is evil. "don't watch the weather channel Tommy, because they claim to forsee the weather, that's evil" "don't watch Barney Jenny, because dinosaurs are extinct and he is not truly who he claims to be". YOU have to draw the line somewhere, if not, then your child will have the Santa Clause complex for someone not so "merry". Hope you have not been working on Sunday.

The leadership is just frustrated at being threatened and insulted by CEO Bush with his eyes on Iran's oil. Also, the Palestinians being pushed onto smaller and smaller slivers of land without anybody speaking up for them is maddening! The difference between Zionists and Nazis is that Zionists don't use gas to exterminate their civilian victims..... Good luck trying to convince these fascists that Iranians are human. They're completely brainwashed. After no WMDs in Iraq, they now believe the lie that Iran has nukes. Hopefully, your govt. understands that Bush WANTS them to build nukes! He and his friends profit from arms races. The best way to get revenge on Bush is to not build nukes. Ahmadinejad, is that you?!?! ;-)

No book is completely perfect. Come on, wasn't there _anything_ which you thought "huh?" about? No time you thought, "so why isn't he/she saying/doing x?" No time you thought, "I wish that had been explained in a bit more detail"? No time you thought, "okay, I get it, now get on with the story already"? You're a reviewer. Picking imperfections is your _job_. Saying "I couldn’t pick an imperfection if I tried" gives the strong impression that you set out to only say positive things.

Thank You. Reading the responses above I can see there are a bunch of Knuckleheads that don't even want to try to educate themselves. I think everyone in the world knows what the U. S. oil Barron's are after in Iran........oil. Very good informative article with a lot of research.

As you may know the media tend to exaggerate on everything(sensationalism sells). Obviously I can only answer for myself but I believe it is common knowledge in the US.about Iran being a very civilized country,and the people of Iran being very educated. There are exceptions to the rule, anywhere. Wish you well Your article was very informative,thank you.
