Removing ALL the sanctions on Iran allowing everyday Iranians to choke on all the Hot Pockets (owned by an Iranian!) iPhones, iPads, and iKooft they can swallow, might just swing the decision towards standing up, from the current "besheen yeh deygheh, let's wait and see".

در طبقۀ پائین، دکتر سه نوع قرص در رنگهای مختلف همراه با دستور مصرف گذاشته بود. یکی برای پائین آوردن تب، یکی مسهل و سوّمی برای غلبه بر محیط اسیدی. دکتر توضیح داد که میکرب های آنفلوآنزا فقط در محیط اسیدی می توانند زنده بمانند. به نظرم رسید که او در بارۀ آنفلوآنزا معلومات کافی دارد. گفت اگر که تب از صد و چهار درجه بالاتر نرود هیچ جای نگرانی نیست>>>
