Wonderful interview!
She spoke so eloquently and wisely.
Thank you Dr. Dave for inviting a guest from that part of the world of which I almost know nothing…
Dr Dave, no need for fear.
I have just returned from Iran and, indeed, the generosity of spirit, hospitality, and the welcoming nature of, what seemed like the majority of people, was enough to make a grown man cry in his hotel room.
I am already planing my return.
And to cap my return would be a visit to Dr Gohar’s group as a quest listener.
Be Brave, Dave.
Although you might need a different passport.
Khoda hafes,
