Fertisch!
Markus Hofmann (Die Gazette) gibt einen recht guten Einblick in das Buch.
Die Zerpflückung des Führer-Schinkens Mein Kampf fand ich extrem interessant. Amerys Thesen könnten den Wahn des GröFaZ durchaus erklären. Die Zukunftsvision des Buches ist düster. Man muss hoffen, dass letztendlich der Verstand des Menschen siegt (zur Zeit erscheint das leider nicht unbedingt wahrscheinlich).
Frech ist Amerys These des Grünen Führers. Kein Wunder, dass sich da einige auf den Schwanz getreten fühlten. Doch sollte man sich nicht dazu verleiten lassen, die These rundherum abzulehnen. Ein Diskurs ist vonnöten. Von ihm dürfte viel abbhängen.

Im Buch Hitler als Vorläufer erwähnt Carl Amery auch das Buch América von T. C. Boyle. Oh welch Schande: Da überfährt der liberale Spiesser anstatt des Mannes die Frau. Tja, Carl, das Büchlein lesen wir am besten nochmal ;-) Aber um die Frage zu beantworten: Aus dem Liberalen wird ein Extremist. Und ganz am Schluss wird er von dem "teuflischen Untermensch" aus den Fluten gezogen. Ein sehr gutes Buch, América.

Isfahan is a real beauty under the Persian cities. History laden the town offers much for cultural interested people travelling through Iran. For me it was the second city after Kashan which I visited on my trip through this country. One thing which makes the city really lovely is the river through it called Zayandeh Rood. It is the cause why Isfahan is famous for its bridges:

Khajoo Bridge from the 17th century



Allah Verdi Khan Bridge from the 16th century







Joobi Bridge





Bozorgmehr Bridge



More bridges located in Isfahan can be found here.

Beside the bridges more stuff can be found at the Zayandeh promenade. For example really breath taking Mullah art. Seems some Iranians have huge barriers in their views of the female role in society. Fact is that if Persian women would do only this, Iran wouldn't work.



The Park of Isfahan. Like always as tourist You have to pay the entrance fee times ten which is still cheap.



A little bit more interesting piece of art. At least the predator looks quit impressive.



The promenade of Isfahan. After I arrived in the town I used this place to relax. Young people strolling around are very interested in strangers. After some meters I was already engaged into a nice conversation. It was the first time I talked with Ehsan. The next day he showed me the university of Isfahan which is really impressive. After I left the city I kept in touch with him over Internet. Unfortunately he is doing now his military service. This is one of the reasons why I would be not really happy if Iran would be engaged somehow into a war.



Isfahan people are often deep religious. In opposite to Tehran, where women are not following the dress code too strictly, Isfahan females are mostly covered with black robes and head scarves (not a Burkha - this is absolutely not typical for Iran). If You start talking with a group, don't address girls. Talk only with the guys. I know! This is not really easy because Iranian girls are often very pretty. But this prevents misunderstandings and maybe problems with the Sharia rules.
