Why the Mullahs Will Keep on Fighting Us, and Destroying Iran
Thanks for posting my comment, Mr. Ledeen. I agree that “no one who regularly follows ME affairs” would consider Arabs to be Iranians. Nowever, “hardly anyone” is a bit too strong for the average American.
I would say a truer statement would to say that hardly any American (other than ME experts) would be aware of the difference between an Arab and an Iranian. This would not be true of Europeans, I would say, but it would certainly be true of Americans.
I’d also be curious what you thought of my other statements. Perhaps you didn’t comment on them since you may have thought not worth commenting on.
Regards,

I try to respond to most comments, but it just isn’t possible, please forgive me. As for Europeans’ presumed superior understanding of the differences between Iranians and Arabs (keeping in mind there ARE a small number of Iranian Arabs), I haven’t been very impressed with their knowledge or wisdom. As for Americans’ knowledge of world history, well, one can only cry…and try to do something useful with our educational “system”.
