There are those who are seeing the ongoing events in Iran as the embodiment of the wishes for respecting civil liberties, Godspeed to them all with a word of caution. Should by an outside chance their wish not become reality, they are setting themselves up for a kind of apathy to make the one after Khatami euphoria look like a trip on ecstasy.
And that is bad; it is bad not only for those individuals more importantly for Iran’s struggle to achieve freedom. Iran needs concerned and dedicated people just like them to not succumb to a potential political apathy at least till She is emancipated.
After three decades of dashing Iran’s hopes and aspirations by the ruling Islamist chameleons, prudence dictates the investment of hope is tempered by reserving some should things not turn out as so wished for.
