A friend of mine e-mailed me a few days ago saying: “Aren’t you glad now you work for CNN instead of the AJC?”
He was referring to the events unfolding in Iran, and of course, I was thrilled to be in the nerve center of the Cable News Network, where we’ve had a rather busy week.
It was amazing to be involved in the story because the story itself is so amazing.
Is this the first step towards change in Iran?
I can’t but help think so. In the very least, things can never be the same again, even if there is a crackdown. The world has seen the real desires and wishes of the Iranian people. More importantly, Iran’s regime has seen that it cannot squash the hopes and dreams of a vibrant population.
Keep watching, everyone.
