...under the radar sometimes. The media does a good job portraying conservatives as old white men who smoke cigars, but that's not it at all. I'm here with hundreds of conservative kids today. I actually think of a lot them are afraid to express themselves for fear their peers might look differently at them. I've had liberal professors who would purposefully single me out and say things just to get me riled up. I kind of took it as my duty to sit in class and give the other side, because nobody else was doing...
...Abbas has achieved precious little for his negotiation efforts and that this has been a prime factor in weakening Fatah in the face of the challenge by its more militant rival, Hamas.

For several weeks I went underground. I continued to send dispatches back to various publications and websites in the U.S. using a rotating set of email accounts registered under outrageous pseudonyms. On Facebook...
Paranoia is above all the death of exaggeration. Many of us became great storytellers in our fear, ascribing near unlimited powers to the state. Life became cramped as we turned inwards on ourselves, picking up the censor's pen to scrupulously measure every word and deed. Ordinary phone calls became exercises in awkward misdirection and elision, and everyday conversations came with a healthy dose of looking over our shoulders. These were habits that I would later find difficult to shake. The movie, it seemed, would not end in Tehran, would have no final scene. (See pictures of Iran's terror...
