Is there some sort of Iranian socialist women's group? what do _they_ say? -- Jim Devine / "I wanna be with you in paradise / And it seems so unfair / I can't go to paradise no more / I killed a man back there." -- Bob Dylan.
It is against the law to advocate socialism in Iran. But maybe that's just as well. All of the people who prefer socialism to radical Shi'ism were of questionable class origins to begin with, just like the traitors that Stalin brought to justice in the 1930s. I guess that Iran is better than the USSR since the traitors were allowed to emigrate, where they now live off the fat of the land, hire Mexican immigrants to watch their children, listen to NPR, eat caviar, drink champagne, dance the tango and follow other sybaritic pursuits. They should all be reeducated, I think. Forced to wear the hejab, read the wit and wisdom of Ayatollah Khomeini while Madrassah students beat them around the head and shoulders.
