It breaks my heart to think that so many good people in beautiful countries with such rich cultures have to suffer because of some destructive idiots who are playing their petty, deadly games. Hope your friends will stay safe.
I love this story. And, though I have not been to Tehran, the picture you paint very much gels with those who I’ve known and who have been dear to me from Iran.
What an interesting story about a country many of us will never visit. As an American, I am devastated and ashamed of this military operation. Many, many Americans do not support our leadership or this war. I hope they are safe. I look forward to reading your next installment.
I appreciate it, thank you. Thinking more of it, I also fail to understand the logic of long-term American politics in the region, positioning themselves against Iran but with Saudi Arabia, whose culture and values are definitely less compatible with the West than Iran.
Very interesting. Hope they’re all OK?

Yes, I think along the same lines. My friends are physically safe but don’t feel safe. The skies over Tehran have been black from smoke.

Thank you. One day when it is more calm, yiu should go. It is impossible to be disappointed in Iran. I will write more soon, time permitting

Really enjoyed this.
You are kind.
They are all alive. We talk often. But it’s far from OK. The country is on fire, pretty much.
