Iran, The Winter Has Ended
Windows on Iran. Excellent Iran blog “Windows on Iran” run by Fatemeh Keshavarz, Chair of the Dept. of Asian and Near Eastern Languages and Literatures at Washington University in St. Louis.
It is called “zemestun sar umad” which means “The winter has ended.” It is a new arrangement of an old and popular song. The images you see on the clip are from Mr. Mousavi’s campaign, his visits to the war front during the eight-year Iran/Iraq war, and some earlier images from the 1979 revolution. One of the goals of the clip is to demonstrate Mr. Mousavi’s deep roots in the Iranian social and political tradition.
All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men and women do nothing.
