No Matter Who Is President, the Stonings Will Continue

Several friends posted or sent this link to me, and I've finally gotten to reading it: No Matter Who is President of Iran, They Would Stone Me, by Lila Ghobady, an exiled Iranian writer-journalist and filmmaker living in Canada since 2002. This is a very powerful essay, one that makes quite clear the limits of the "revolution" that was simmering in the wake of the recent Iranian political leadership (s)election.
