Iran and Al-`Alam TV: this is a true story

I received a call from `Alam TV (the Arabic language TV service of the Iranian government). They asked me to give a commentary on Hillary Clinton's comments about Iran. I said: I would be willing to make comments about her comments, but that I would also add comments against the Iranian regime. The guy said--I kid you not: but we only want comments critical of Hillary Clinton, but not of the Iranian regime. I said: in that case, you need to call somebody else.
