Seven Bad Assumptions We Make About Iran
1. Iran is ripe for regime change.

2. Iran is irrational and cannot be deterred.

3. Iran is inherently anti-American.
Not quite. [...]
4. Enrichment equals a nuclear bomb.

5. Iran seeks Israel's destruction.
False. [...]
6. The pressure on Iran is working.
Questionable. [...]
7. Stability in the Middle East can be achieved only through Iran's isolation.
Quite the contrary. [...]
Iran poses a complicated challenge to America, but not an irresolvable one. Despite the tremendous distrust between the two countries, history shows that negotiations can work.

Yet these pictures taken by the British photographer Olivia Arthur show Teheran's young women to be independent, party-loving, and leading surprisingly liberal lives. Fatima is 11 years old and lives in a poor neighbourhood on the outskirts of Teheran with her mother and three aunts. Her father was a drug addict and left the family. The poster on the wall is of Fatima’s uncle, a local wedding DJ who plays ‘cheesy Iranian pop music’ Edyanita lives in Teheran and is Christian. She is a graphic design student The Christian community in Iran has a special legal status – Christians are permitted to drink alcohol and dance so long as they are not in the company of Muslims. many young Iranians are under-going plastic surgery; there are an estimated 3,000 plastic surgeons operating in Teheran. |
