Poynteronline writes about We Are Iran by Nasrin Alavi.
Amy Gahran has posted on Poynteronline about the report published by Chatham House on the role of Iran in the Middle East. Chatham House is a leading UK think tank on international affairs. If you visit Poynteronline you’ll see the links to download the report and the press release.
The post comments on the report’s assessement that the US misapplied power in regards to Iran. The connection to We Are Iran is that Amy has recently started reading the book, which has offered her an insight into Iran and world affairs from the perspective of Iranian bloggers.
The book is blog postings translated from Farsi. Amy offers comments about the book and the power of blogging. It’s a good article and an excellent connection between We Are Iran and current affairs.
Note: An excerpt of We Are Iran: The Persian Blogs by Nasrin Alavi is available on The Tyee.
