Impressed by the trip to Iran, the French journalist got to know that his visit to Iran was \u201cenough to shake lazy prejudices\u201d he \u201cwas not free to leave\u201d.<\/p>\n
Debray recounts the \u201cjoie de vie\u201d within the Iranian youth and describes the government as”too fragmented and plural to be told ‘totalitarian'”. He criticized his government for double standard and mistaken policies towards Iranians including hosting the Mujahedin Khalq Organization terror cult in French territory and aiding \u201cthe Iraqi aggressor\u201d Saddam Hussein in the disastrous war against Iran.<\/p>\n
Regis Debray suggests:<\/p>\n
We are much more conscious of always hosting on our territory, with visible public support (by parliamentarians and mayors), the People\u2019s Mujahedin, politico religious cult, so far without representation in the country, and with the record of fighting alongside Saddam Hussein against its motherland. It targeted and killed half of the government and made thousands of civilians die.”Where are the terrorists\u201d, we ask. \u201d Are they with you or with us?”<\/p>\n
