you have not answered the question, to wit, Have you ever met an Iranian? I have known LOTS of Iranians----In the 60s the Jews of Iran were FLOODING out and ended up in my part of the USA-----the "metropolitan area states" ---have you ever actually met an Iranian?----how about on or about 1978----
the USA have and had lots
In the 70s----"educated" Iranians ---mostly from Teheran were flooding out.
I met lots of them. Then 1978 happened----some were IN FAVOR of the ayatoilet----to wit, some muslims. That lasted a few months----then
even the Muslims got MISERABLE. Try it-----even you can be enlightened
