Wow, look at some of the reactions. Even though Rick admits that the Iranians have some issues with personal freedom, any mention of the greater goodness of humanity as expressed in such a culture, and the YouTube Extreme Right Wing (tm) thinks he justifying Islamic jihad. Probably the same military experts who are running the occupations in Iraq, and Afghanistan.
@Anal3t1cia So, because we don't buy into Rick Steves' typically liberal cutesy-wutsey take on the darker aspects of Iran; we're ignorant? Believe it or not, but just because some Americans come to totally different conclusions than yours on Iran's politics, religion and culture; doesn't mean we're ignorant.
Well it was very intresting to hear Rick speak I enjoyed it, If Prophet Muhammad has come before His Holiness Bahaullah, and thier for let us kill all the Baha'is or do not give them the right. In the same behaviour as His Holiness Mosess coming before Christ or Christ came before Muhammad. This dose not make sence. the eleven grade teacher, is okay but the 12 grade teacher is not. God has sent all the great teachers of all religions to teach us and They are all from ONe God.
