That's wonderful!

The secularization of Iraq must be preserved - a family member who is a harpist today told me of reading an interview with an Iranian who had been a harpist (on whatever Iranian instrument is the native equivalent of a harp, at any rate) and was prevented by the mullahs after the fall of the Shah from studying it because music is "un-Islamic."

Get that music in there and watch the mullahs flee!

There's something wrong with a mentality that would consider Bach or Beethoven subversive...
