Actually, Ayatollah Khomeini banned all music early on in the Islamic Revolution.

Unfortunate many of the good things that Khatami did are being overturned, but who could expect from such an authoritarian bastard like Ahmadinejad.

If only those Iranians in Los Angeles weren't jerks with thier crappy sattelite programming, things would surely be better.

Iran needs its own version of MQM/PPP for sure.

In small they need Benazir Bhutto/Pervez Musharraf-esque folks, which could be found in Faizeh Rafsanjani (reformist daughter of pragmatic conservative President Hashemi Rafsanjani).  But I'd rather the system be overthrown, than work within it; but I'm more of a pragmatist than a idealist.
