I must have missed something. Is Iran accused of photoshopping some recent pics? If so, then could someone link me to altered photos?

Also, how could you tell they were altered? Could you see the pixels? Have you seen many shops in your time?

Yes.

And google "Iran missile test photoshop" or something like that. It's from a couple months ago.

There was a thread a few weeks back about Iran launching a rocket, which supposedly had some sort of satellite on it. The pic that went with the Iranian news story was also a Photoshop of the Shuttle, some ESA rockets, a sound system, and a table on wheels, all pasted together.

/I kid you not.

I've seen a few shops in my time and I'm getting a kick out of your reply (Or maybe the replies to your post).

With the ratio of pirates in the world, to countries left with oil reserves, they should probably have pretty much everything on the table for defense.

I know some western leaders would if it was their country.

It's not too hard... they can eat all they want before the sun comes up and after it goes down. It just takes some discipline.

There's exceptions to it. This would be one of them I guess.

/The funny thing is, if you go to an Iranian store in the US, you'll see NO ONE observes this silly holiday. The only Iranians that observe it are either a)very religious b)work for the government or c)both.

C'mon conservatives, make up your mind. Either Iran is the greatest threat to freedoms evar or it's a bumbling wannabe who needs to use photoshop to look dangerous. You can't have both.

Conservatives don't see Iran as a noteworthy threat; the pro-Israel crowd, on the other hand, is trying to make them out to be Nazi Germany 2.0.

How about we drop you off in Tehran and check it out for us? Call us back when you are sure everything is OK. You can reverse the charges.

Dumbass.

I don't think you understand. First of all, it shouldn't be a partisan deal to accept the hard truth and Iran is the number one sponsor and exporter of terrorism. Nearly every suicide bombing in the Middle East can be traced back to Iran. That's just a fact and it has been for many years. Secondly, you may be partially correct on the " bumbling " comment. I mean, the really bad photoshop propaganda is certainly funny. HOWEVER, they are trying to obtain nuclear weapons and in fact, their " bumbling " and erratic behavior as well as their martyr ideology makes that possibility far more dangerous than other nations have alwats been kept in check by the concept of MAD ( Mutually Assured Destruction ). Akmadinajerk and the religious leaders are twisted. They are not only not afraid to die, they want to. I'm not sure how understanding all of this is a Republican/Democrat thing.....unless you're saying that Democrats simply ignore the facts and the history. Obama said they were nothing but a nuisance, but he's a young guy with no understanding of the region. There are plenty of others who know exactly how dangerous they are.
