Re: "Iran riots: Why doesn't it get any play in the U.S. media? "

I should have asked why it doesn't get more play, and emphasized t.v.

The U.S. t.v. media, where (unfortunately) most people get their information to form opinions, seems to have virtually ignored this extremely important story.

Thanks.

This is the best news since 9-11, bar none. I have been of the opinion throughout that Iran, related to the Pushtun, familiar with the discomforts of fundamentalism and the comforts of Westernization, and capable of advanced diplomacy, holds the key to a successful dismantling of Al Qaida's leadership.

Let us hope no errors are made to prevent the continuance of this favorable trend.
