    The funeral in Tehran that the West cannot explain 

    MADRID - Every history is a narrative: an attempt, from a specific political present, to answer how that present relates to the pasts it reconstructs and the futures it anticipates. There is no neutral way to tell it. Composing a historical discourse is an interpretive, aesthetic, moral and political exercise, and it is so even before a single fact has been discussed.

    Tehran: Ocean of the Awakened Ummah for the Martyr Leader

    TEHRAN- Let me begin by saying that this is not a news report, nor a statistical account of participants or a description of how the ceremony was organized. It is a narrative about ordinary people—housewives, students, and retirees—who came out into the streets to bid farewell to a man they feel eternally indebted to. From Mr. Vessali, a father of a martyr, to Ebrahim, who came to the funeral procession of the martyred leader of the Islamic Revolution despite his disability, saying, “I came to tell Sayyid Ali: You’re the best!”
