In direct contravention of my wife's explicit instructions, herewith I inaugurate my first blog. Long may it prosper.

For some reason, I think I have something to say to you. You think you have something to say to me? Email me at: gideonsblogger -at- yahoo -dot- com

 
Read down to the bottom of yet another Michael Ledeen piece on Iran, to the part where he quotes an exchange with a a State Department official on the subject of "do we have a message for the Iranian people?" (the answer is, of course, "no.")

I console myself by remembering that the State Department has always been wrong about absolutely everything, and the country has done OK regardless. But still. I hope the Iranian people read blogs.
