Thinking about it, Iran has an Air Force which would make this very dangerous, but I do think it would be something we can do to help the people in Iran continue to communicate with us.
What do y'all think?

"After that, tens of thousands of convicts could be sent to Virginia, Maryland, and other colonies. It also make understandable why the Virginia Assembly, after Bacon's Rebellion, gave amnesty to white servants who had rebelled, but not to blacks. Negroes were forbidden to carry any arms, while whites finishing their servitude would get muskets, along with corn and cash. The distinctions of status between white and black servants became more and more clear." - A People's History of the United States
The preceding sentence is "This fear may help explain why Parliament in 1717, made transportation to the New World a legal punishment." Rebellions were becoming common in the late 1600s and early 1700s in the colonies, and Bacon's Rebellion was significant because whites and blacks joined together to fight against their servitude. The legal punishment created a security force of conscripts. While these local laws enshrined racism into the class war to protect the wealthy.

danamongden writes the other day about the election and says this:I have not yet decided who I am voting for in the general election. I'm not even sure yet who I'm leaning towards as I have reasonably positive feelings towards both candidates.
I do not understand what there is to be undecided about. If you are undecided, I would appreciate hearing why. I am thoroughly baffled by your position.
