A Drug called Hallucinating

While I share Dr Pipes sese of optimism. there is something that the Arab and Iranian street must do on their own, person by person.They must stop believing everything they're told by colonel anyone, and ask more questions.And when they get an answer, it should evoke another question. And they have to stop hallucinating about people on posters,passages in books and a flag in lieu of a friend. Yes, Dr Pipes is right. Arabs and Persians need an opportunity to rebel as capable adults. And many are trying. A good beginning would be to admit they have been addicted to hallucinating. Its like a drug.
