This Friday, Valentine's Day, a day of affection and friendship, was celebrated worldwide, including in Iran. The following day, a music festival was held in France. At this event, one of the esteemed and elderly singers, Serge Reggiani, who now walks with difficulty, was asked which of the nearly three hundred songs he has sung he loves the most, and he replied: 'The Wolves.' 'The Wolves' is an old song that describes how France was occupied by foreign soldiers during World War II and how the wolves occupied the country. This is not the first time a poet or writer has spoken through the voice of animals such as doves, deer, snakes, dragons, and wolves... - If you do not see his face, you hear his voice. - Iraqi athletes and torture - Who holds the scissors and beard - Poverty and mobile phones - The common line of dictatorship - Invitation to the flatterers.
