Yes it is one of the passport photos. I believe it is the one in Miller's
book. The last time I was in Wikipedia, the picture was at the bottom and a
note at the top mentioned that Baha'is may want to avoid going there. I
thought that a good compromise. I don't think it serves our interests
The more interesting question, in my opinion, is whether Wilson and the
Guardian meant the same thing from the phrase. I think this is a great
topic to extend to the current usage of the phrase. I am aware of many,
mostly conservative Americans, who rail against the New World Order.

chord with me when I read it in The Power of the Covenant series

But with Susan'sclarification - that it was Sohrab taking notes as
