TEHRAN, Iran — Hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has banned Western music from Iran's radio and TV stations, reviving one of the harshest cultural decrees from the early days of the 1979 Islamic Revolution.

The majority of Iranians are young and probably are not happy with this decision - which will only bring more resentment towards their government.

On the other hand, American Military enthusists like me get to beat the drums of war just a little louder today.
