These are the links I have received from Iran in the last week. Clearly, my friends are scouring international news to read what the world is writing about their situation.

Overjoyed about Obama peace prize. People are up in arms about what he hasn’t done. But, exactly. What he hasn’t done is remarkable. Obama refuses to engage in the extremist posturing game. In fact, at a loss for a sufficient enemy, Ahmadinejad still invokes Bush during his speeches to rile the crowd. By not providing [...]
