ARTICLE: Iran President Facing Revival of Students’ Ire, By NAZILA FATHI, New York Times, December 21, 2006
This is very good stuff. So much of Iran's population is under 30, and the demographic "pig" moving through the "python" is centered now at the HS/college age range, so unrest there is VERY significant, because it represents the demographic center of gravity.
Thanks to Dan Hare for sending this.
Update: The student revival is definitely on my 2007 wish list (next weekend's column I'm writing on way home from Hawaii).
