Apparently, the Arab world has its version of the National Enquirer.
 

Actually, this sort of stuff is more like an official press release or position paper from the Iranian government.  As all Iranian media is tightly government-controlled, nothing goes out over Iranian airwaves or print media that isn't approved of and backed by the 'government' there.

All MEMRI does is translate....what you're seeing is the viewpoint of the Iranian government.

"All MEMRI does is translate....what you're seeing is the viewpoint of the Iranian government."

and it should not be assumed that the majority of Iranian people in any way believe this nonsense. Just as in the Soviet Union where people eventually are able to deduct the truth by believing the exact opposite of what ever was printed in Pravda, Iranians are not all fools either.
