Obama calling Iran (Updated with an important link)

BBC NEWS | Americas | Iran seeking change in US policy

The Nowrouz message by Obama with Persian subtitles.

By contrast, Shimon Peres' message seems intended to division in Iran rather than to suggest dialogue.

Update:
Farideh Farhi's evaluation of Ayatollah Khamenei's nuanced and extended response to the Obama message is must reading (in contrast to the frankly ignorant short piece in the Washington Post, headlined "Iran's Supreme Leader Rebuffs Obama".)
