Assigned reading for Army military academy includes comic book by Marjane Satrapi, Persian born french intellectual (redundancy or oxymoron?). She told them, “25 years ago the Iranian mullahs said ‘God is on our side. You are going to fight the Big Satan… And 25 years after I hear the American government saying God is on our side… the same words…But when it comes from an Iranian mullah it is normal. An Iranian mullah is supposed to be fanatic. It is not normal when it comes from the biggest secular democracy in the whole world.”
