Traveling to Tehran?

Editorial of The New York Sun
February 12, 2008

Here's a good topic for a Bill Kristol column in the New York Times: The newspaper's travel section from Sunday, whose front cover and ample inside real estate were devoted to a package of articles and color photographs encouraging Americans to travel to Iran. The main article gave the final word to a quote from an Iranian, who, informed that the writer was an American, smiled and said, "Our governments are bad. But the people are good." One difference is that in Iran, newspapers that write that the government is bad are shut down and their editors are beaten. In America, they flourish. We'll take our government over Iran's, any day.
