   Pezeshkiyan's first deputy (Aref) had a live session with a group of   
   Iranian newly graduated PhDs of Stanford. Aref is himself a Stanford   
   graduate. He kind of went over how he made the decision to leave USA and   
   go to Iran to serve, and how he thinks he made the right decision.   
      
   The Iranian graduates were mostly interested to ask him if time could go   
   back and Aref would be in that day that he hadn't decided yet, what   
   would be his decision now that he has seen the consequences.. :-)   
      
   Aref said he was absolutely sure that if he was taken back to that day,   
   he would choose to go to Iran and serve.   
      
   Then the rest of the online meeting continued with Aref's long   
   description of why this was so, and how in the beginning there were   
   resistance against educated people in Iran and how the educated and   
   young dealt with it.   
      
   Especially he pointed out, in a very rare description of realities in   
   Iran, how Iran has changed and is a different entity now; how the old   
   thinking has given way to new fast progress forward, and how experts are   
   in these days and times welcomed by Iran and above all, how successful   
   such experts are proving to become in Iran of today.   
      
   His long explanation was from the heart, and his own experience of what   
   Iran went through to get here, and was very unique and telling. I'm sure   
   he impressed a lot of the new young graduates. What a man.   
      
   Let me translate his last sentence in that long talk:   
      
      "For the young experts, American and European paths to civilization   
   can't and aren't anymore be the preferred one. A civilization whose   
   pinnable is the Ghazan tragedy, is the exact state of the primitive and   
   the uncivilized."   
      
      
   So Aref is saying what I've been saying for 30 years. Americans and   
   Europeans are earlier humans. They're not Modern Humans. And they'll   
   never do better than "Ghaza tragedy."   
      
   It's what they are.
