A picture is worth a thousand words. . .

For this week's thousand word picture here is a cartoon by renowned Iranian cartoonist Nikahang Kowsar. Mr. Kowsar will be a speaker at GW's "Iran's Blogosphere and Grassroots Voices: Risks and Rewards of Engagement." Usually his work is in Persian but I was able to find this one in English. Similar to one of my first thousand-worders this one plays off of Tianemen Square and emphasizes the use of technology in the Iranian protests.
