    By coincidence her last name Amanpour in Farsi means brave root.

    Amanpour should also address this discourse to the left-wing and liberal Western governments who allow veiled Muslim women to be representatives in parliaments to demonstrate Muslim participation in politics and public life. Western countries promote the concept of hijab as well as the concept of Islamophobia.

    She is part Iranian on her dad’s side. That had to be so weird for her regarding the president’s reaction.

    Would have been fun to see the reaction had she worn a transparent scarf and removed it during the course of her interview.

    I’m sure the Iranian leader could care less about doing an interview with this lady.
