President Bans Music ...8:20 pm
That’s the Iranian president, of-course, and some might say the first move good move he’s made is banishing Kenny G. from the air waves of Persia. While it seems a lot of Iranians have been shrugging it off , President Ahmadinejad seems unlikely to stop with pro forma restrictions on what state radio and TV can play. Perhaps he understands the risk that Western music poses to the kind of repressive regime he and the ayatollahs would like to maintain, and he realizes he has no choice but to fight it. And, just maybe, he’s afraid of … IslamaBob!
