igster · 01-20-2007, 08:18 PM

which hand?

harflimon · 01-20-2007, 08:25 PM

Heh, it was a joke. See how the right hand of the guy in the yellow jacket looks like it extends onto the other mans lower thigh.

That photo just gave me a chuckle for the unintentional homo pose.

A clever post.

Its a shame it may not look this way for long.

I don't think these guys are going to just roll over and and play dead, they've got so much to lose.

As have Russia and China.

Indeed it is a shame that some sheeple in the west just believe Iran is stuck in the past, uses torture, severe punishments, oppresses women, is a third world country and wants to nuke the world. This is what the western state media spoon feeds them on a weekly basis, a mixture of ignorance and propaganda.

The reality is somewhat along the lines of that Iran is a progressive country getting richer on their resources, developing their own flavour of democracy which fits in with their way of life and culture. Sure they have a way to go, but no outsider can force an outside way of life on another, it just doesn't work. Change takes time and should happen from within, by their own people.

I sure hope the western leaders see sense and stop their angry threats and get Israel on the leesh. Its becoming embarrasingly obvious that some people just don't like the idea of Iran becoming a large power player in the region. They should get over it.

Its also funny how the media hooks on iranian women and headscarfs etc, yet some of those looked quite nice and lots of colours too, over time they'll change too. Its like saying an indian woman in a sari is somehow behind the times, yet they are very stylish.

Of course if we never let them evolve their country themselves then we'll just make us enemy number 1 all the time.

There is good and bad in all countries, heck the west is slowly undoing all its liberty which it fights so much for, so we can't say much hehe.
