Beyond 9/11 and its aftermath, other developments have loomed large. on the political side, the Palestinians held elections in January 2005, and in Iran, conservatives won the majority seats in Majles elections in 2004 and also won the presidential election in 2005, giving them control of all branches of the government.…
