At the start of the Afghan war I saw an interview with a woman on an Iranian street. Her face was intentiuonally blurred but her comments were clear. She said that she hoped America would do the same in Iran.
Also on the show (National Geographic?) were college kids saying they just want to be able to hold hands in public, wear the clothes they want to wear and allow women to let their hair blow in the wind.
They made it very clear that they did not want to become American but they did want the freedoms they see in America.
