Iranians
!
co-existance doesn't look so bad.
they live under a regime of petty tyrants, rogues and knaves, like usPg. 324: "the powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences."

About half the hotties in those pictures would be stoned to death if they were caught walking the streets of Tehran dressed like that.

Are you equating our respective political environment?

If you are just pointing out that the common person is the same all over the world I would agree. Mostly. Everyone wants a nice husband/wife and job and house, likes children, flowers, and pretty sunsets,.. LOL! That is a little simplistic but I reckon it is the truth.I draw all my schematics in crayon now. If they cannot always be correct, they can at least be colorful.
Service calls submitted after 3PM will be posted the next business day.
I give free estimates [Wild Ass Guesses] over the phone.
I am not in business to make money from other people so that I can afford to work for you for free.
If the fall is over, mmmm let's say, 6 feet or so,.. I do not 'bounce' very well.

they supposedly have the 3rd largest Jewish population in the world, behind Israel and the US, and according to the State Dept. about 250 to 300k Christians living there.
