Keep dreaming Sar Dabir jan!!!
Who else has not said what the good professor has said in his article?
Has copying and pasting of ideas become a norm?
Thanks to the policies of the regime in Tehran, Iran has been devastated, but the Gawdat Bahgats of this world keep seeing Iran as a “regional power.” What exactly does “regional power” mean to the likes of Gawdat Bahgat? The US are not in that region to win wars. For decades now, US’s main strategy has been to keep the region underdeveloped and destabilized. And the strategy has worked.
Hey AR,
The heinous Flynt Leverett and his bitch are two of the main culprits. The rest you know. Here’s an excerpt from Wikipedia:
Leverett was heavily criticized for his articles during the 2009 Iranian Green Movementprotests. After the government announced official election results, millions of Iranians took on the streets in a peaceful protest against the rigged presidential election. The demonstrations were brutally crushed by the Iranian regime's security forces that left hundreds dead, and thousands of dissidents were injured, arrested and tortured. In a New York Times op-ed co-authored with his wife Hillary Mann Leverett, Flynt described the Iranian opposition movement as weak and not representing "anything close to a majority." The piece then went on to criticize President Obama's Iran policy as "half-hearted efforts."[2] The Leveretts' op-ed was harshly criticized by Abbas Milani. Calling the Leveretts' op-ed "the most infuriating op-ed of the new year," Milani pointed out how Obama's extensive efforts to reach out to the Ayatollah had been rejected and ridiculed by the regime.[3] In a 2010 article in the Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg described the Leveretts as "cynical foreign policy realists," and criticized their reasons for a policy of conciliation between the US and a "regime that rapes and murders its own citizens" as "semi-inexplicable."[4]
