ABC is right, that was a very insightful post. Regarding the generational stuff-- I was led to believe that the coming generation in these countries would make the difference. I also read countless tales of Iran getting anxious for modernity.
This is why the election of Ahmadinejad struck me as quite a surprise. I mean, I know he campaigned differently than he is governing, but the guy still essentially ean as a populist. I don't see how a younger generation yearning for pop culture and freedom could ever tolerate this guy....
