As I came back from the picture tour of Iran (such nice photos) it occurred to me that the pics of women who were not wearing head scarves were old and of a former time in that country. There were no photos of women walking alone on the streets nor in ski attire nor in any of numerous settings in which you would normally expect to see them. As I looked at the high-rise apartments and condos, I wondered how many women and children were being abused within the walls at the time of the photograph being snapped. Sometimes it's not what you see, but what you don't see that tells the true story.
so?
So why is there"zot" in the title..and what pictures.. and where is the link?
WTF?
???
The country is not as it appears even in sanitized photographs. At the core, it's culture is a Medieval nightmare no matter how anybody tries to camoflage it.
nor in ski attire? how about mountain climbing attire? any wearing scuba gear?
Guess you had to be there.
No Steak and Shake?
I, uh, see.
I spent some time in Turkey delivering weapons systems.
The government was very friendly toward me.
