Iran. Iran, So Far Away.
Okay, okay, so you either get the title reference or you don’t and if you do and you’re thinking, “Hey, people getting slaughtered is no laughing matter,” well you’re absolutely right but I, as an American not living under a thuggish Islamic dictatorship can in turn make jokes and be a general happy person because I don’t have to deal with religious oppression as a way of life.
If you haven’t yet … do take a look …
There is some serious stuff going down over there.
People being shot and killed for protesting the supreme mullah overlords. Shutting down communication with the outside world, etc. etc. Iran will never be a free Democratic country like the United States. No amount of twittering is going to save a small amount of their population from that iron-fisted grip. But it’s important to see what’s going on while you can. Why? Because you won’t see this stuff on ABC. All you’ll see there is a huge special promo for why we need to spend a quadrabazillion dollars on health care.
