Iranian student apologizes to Israel

[eyl]

It seems that not all Iranians are against Israel. Workers at the Israeli embassy in Budapest, Hungary, were surprised to receive an apology letter from a female Iranian student, referring to the remark of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad that "Israel should be wiped off the map," Israel's leading newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported.

The student ended her letter with the hope that one day Israelis and Iranians could live together in peace again.

Yahel Vilan, deputy to the Israeli ambassador to Hungary, immediately thanked the student for her moving words.

1. That coincides with the opinions of the Iranian-Americans

in my condo complex, of the Iranian-Americans who work with my kids, and of my Iranian-American professional colleagues. You know, the Iranian Americans who have to work for a living, pay mortgages, pay college tuitions for their kids, and "come in above spec, under budget, and early."
