Iran to the library
January 9, 2008
So here’s the deal. Iran is not as bad as everyone says it is. Do I know this because I have traveled extensively throughout the country? No. Is it because I have a fluent knowledge of the language and culture of Iran? Nein.
Then how could I know that?
Simple.
Because the United States is acting like a jerk. This is the same mentality as someone constantly teasing you until finally you snap. Thankfully neither country has yet, but know our man in the White House, I am sure he will try to pop a shot soon.
Currently, I am working on my senior project. It highlights the relationship the United States has with Iran and why every single citizen of either country needs to pay attention and “get off their high horse and get their heads out of their respective asses”. I’ll post more later, at this point it is all a mountain of research.
The whole idea came from my Senior Thesis titled Persian Immersion: Why American Design Students Should Study Iranian Graphic Design. It brought to light a major fact that most Americans, particularly students, just take whatever is handed to them and pay little attention to the world around them. I had to put a stop to it. I will try and post a PDF or something of my thesis, but I doubt anyone is going to want to read it. If you do, let me know.
