In May I wrote about the sad situation in Iran. It seems to be getting worse in that more and more freedoms are not only being curtailed but punished. For example, young men wearing tight T-shirts or having their hair cut the wrong way are paraded through the streets sucking on a can the Iranians using for washing their arses. This parade takes place after the guys have been rather thoroughly beaten.
Every Spring Iran seems to make a sweep of all those violating the Koran. This year they've set a record and have arrested at least 150,000. They've also sent a three page memo to the media telling them what they cannot report on, such as the price of gas.
But I guess Iran's problems will soon end as Ahmadinejad has said that their savior will soon return. I had better watch what I say.
