Of course; especially when Cheney is the vp and gets those no bid contracts. And no oversight either.

Thank you Siun, and everyone else for their very insightful questions and comments. I’ve truly enjoyed this…and yes, it was my hope in writing the book that Americans might come to understand Iranians just a little better. Hopefully, understanding leads to dialog, and dialog leads to peace.

Thank you so much for this wonderful book — please keep writing about Iran. Americans need to hear your stories so that we can better understand, and be understood by, this culture. You are clearly gifted in this role, and I hope you continue to bridge this large gap.

We are nearing the end of our time – and before we end, I want to again say that this is a stunning book and a very enjoyable one. It shifts our view in important and needed ways – and will help us push for more productive policies in the future.

Thank you Hooman for your writing and for your time with us today! I hope you’ll keep us updated on further articles and books so we can enjoy those as well!
