by Princess on Fri Jul 29, 2011 07:13 AM PDTThanks for sharing, Darius jaan.
He brings up the very important topic of the prevalent culture at the time of historical events and shows how it should always be considered in our evaluation and analysis of history. The same goes for his sober evaluation of Reza shah and his work.
Thank you!
I love this guy's wit and especially his Sense of Humor ;0)
