Outing Iran: Abjeez

By The Daily Dish

A reader writes:

My wife, who is a Middle Eastern scholar, told me about this group, Abjeez - two Iranian sisters based in London who do world pop. This piece DemoKracy, is brilliant, in the way it used the media metaphor to comment on the "democracy" that America has brought to the Middle East and Iraq in particular. It used images that are seldom, if ever seen on US TV, but are frequently seen in the rest of the world. And best of all, their music is great!
