Washington between the warring tribes (the
Washington Post in particular documents this in some
detail in their front-page story today). One tribe
seems to be centered in the State Department in the
persons of Condoleeza Rice and Nick Burns; the other
tribe is headed by VP Cheney and operates out of his
black-box counter-policy staff in the White House --
a new phenomenon in the history of US foreign policy.

| In Memory of Beh Azin |
|
Prominent Iranian translator Mahmoud Etemadzadeh,
who used the pen name M Beh-Azin, passed away on
Wednesday, May 31, 2006, in Tehran's Arad Hospital
due to a heart
attack.
Etemadzadeh's son, Kaveh, told IRNA on Wednesday
that his father had been suffering
from heart and
lung diseases over the past three years.
The American Iranian Council sends its condolences
to the family of the late Beh Azin and to all his
friends and admirers in Iran and throughout the world.
