I know a Persian Baha'i and his American wife. They were living in Iran at the time. She speaks/reads pretty good Persian. She said in a letter to a mutual friend that she saw nothing special about it; but her husband read it and immediately said "We're leaving!" Within months they had liquidated their assets, at a significant loss, and had moved to Africa. Perhaps you will see more in it than she did.
