Are things getting better in the Mideast?
It has been in the news a lot recently about Iran's current leaders and their contempt toward the west!
Could things be changing? It appears the country is uprising against the leaders!!!!
See this news report.

Don't forget that over 50% of the population is under 25 years old. The youth of Iran see modern life and want to live in a modern society, not one where women are worth 50% of a man, etc.
It is moments like this one, where you start to realize that we're all just fighting to be human. The sham of an election in Iran really boils my blood. To allude to a post by MikeOH asking what is worth fighting for -- I think we're seeing it happen right now in Iran - people are fighting for their right to exist as other free people do. It is an incredible thing.
