Persia is an old and great civilization taken over and held hostage by a hardline Islamic Jihad regime that should have been destroyed when I was a child. All my life I have seen pictures of Persia before the rise of that regime, and after, and I will never understand how anyone can support them. I don’t like to wish death on anyone, but the way they treat women alone is enough to make me break that rule. The fact that they have killed thousands of Americans over my lifetime is actually the second issue to me. I want to see Persian women dancing again. I want them to be able to dance again and not be executed for it. I want them to be able to live again. I don’t know if we can help them rebuild what they had before. I don’t know if it can be rebuilt. But the human in me has said we need to try my entire life.
