Condolences to his family on his COVID related death. Here is one of his very best pieces from 2020.

— Iran has announced that it is bracing for tens of thousands of cases of the virus. Desperate for a way to make any progress, Tehran has resorted to extreme measures. It has ordered the military to assist health officials. It directed that a force of 300,000 to begin what is probably the impossible task of going door to door to screen every inhabitant of the country. The good news for thousands of political prisoners is that the government announced it is freeing 54,000 inmates of the nation’s prisons in an attempt to head off an explosion of the virus in those desperately crowded facilities.

It may be too little too late. The Iranian government was aware many weeks ago that it had a problem on its hands, but paranoid and determined at all times to project a false image of invincibility, it did what it typically does. It lied. It covered up. It avoided taking any action that might suggest that it was anything less than infallible.—
