Susan picked up a copy of Persepolis from Half Priced Books today. I read through it when we got home. I lied in bed with tears in my eyes trying to make sense of the world that is presented in the book.
I really need to finish the series (I believe there are four books in all), because this volume ends on a sad note and unfortunately I have no idea if it will get better. We heard about this through the movie that was made from it recently.
One last thing, what the hell is the purpose of the CIA? Isn’t it odd that they are behind so many coups and operations that destabilize entire regions of the world?

Hmm I will get that book from the library this week.
I would be curious to see a simulation ran with our country having no CIA. Would bad things happen? Or do we get into more trouble because we’re causing it?
