we often forget how important the western zones of germany were to the revival of western europe. keep forget how important the western in mind, however, that these initiatives, these initiatives toward western germany engendered anxiety throughout europe, not only in the soviet union, not only in poland, but also these initiatives triggered enormous anxiety in france, in holland, and great britain. everyone in europe in 1947 was traumatized by the war that had just ended. and everyone in europe feared the revival of german power over the long-term. everyone was aware, right, within their lifetimes, everyone was aware that in 1917 and 1918, germany had been defeated, supposedly disarmed, and within a generation, germany not only recovered, hitler had taken control and within 22 years or so, germany dominated the entirety of the european continent, occupied all of western europe and very large parts of eastern europe and soviet russia. that was the memory of all policymakers in europe and all people in europe in 1947. so there was tremendous worry about the implications of the mars

it is based in the west and it is based on western so—called values. at times. but when it comes to... if you're talking about political prisoners, it would be good to include people like julian assange, who is right now, in my opinion, a political prisoner being held in the heart of london because he's exposed the crimes of the united states in iraq, because he's exposed how hillary clinton used the democratic national committee to cheat her rival, sanders, from being the candidate for the democratic party. and now he's being punished for it. he's been accused of raping two women, falsely accused as far as we know. then you have other examples. you have people like helen thomas, who was the white house correspondent for nine administrations. professor marandi... you will have the right to question what happens in other countries, but in a format such as ours it's more useful, i think, if you respond to my direct questions about what's happening in your own country. when you see the level of repression in tehran today, do you, yourself, as an academic,
