Will U.S. Embassy in Iran become 'Great Satan Park'?

Tourists and thrillseekers in Iran could have a new attraction in downtown Tehran: the former United States Embassy being converted into a "Great Satan Park."

A top Iranian commander is calling for the creation of such a theme park at the one-time location U.S. facility, which has seen a troubled history dating back to the Carter administration of the 1970s.

"We would be able to nicely show off the American crimes to citizens strolling in the park," General Mir-Faisal Bagherzadeh told the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency. "The former American Den of Spies should become the park of Great Satan."

Bagherzadeh is in charge of the Sacred Defense Foundation, a propaganda organ originally created to commemorate the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war.

The property is perhaps best known from 1979 news footage, when in the wake of Iran's Islamic revolution that toppled the U.S.-backed shah, the embassy was taken over by Islamist students, with 52 staffmembers taken hostage for 444 days.

The downtown location is now used for military training by Iran's ideological army, the Revolutionary Guards, while the main building also serves as a museum to display the "documents of American espionage and crimes against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

What have we done with the former Iranian embassy here? I hope it's selling bacon cheeseburgers.

I don't believe the current tenent ever signed a lease.

We still owe them over that, and payback IS a beiotch.

Another legacy of the Peanut Prince from Plains who threw out the Shah..the only stable ruler that country had seen in generations.

I was going to post a picture of Carter and found this cartoon, which cracked me up. Hope others find the humor in it as well.

The jihadist on the right is very likely Ahmadinejad.

these people never stop teaching hatred to the youth of the country. They are guaranteeing a hundred years of war for these kids. Islam is the religion of hate and Satan is called Allah.

I tend to agree, although recent pictures of the little runt suggest that his nose got fatter, which indicates one of our U.S. Marines might have managed to land a haymaker at some point...

Here's hoping for a few more! :)

As for our former Embassy in Tehran?

I say nuke it and to Hell with the repercussions. It's still U.S. soil and we can do whatever we want with it.

Since the UN was so insistent that hatred such as the Mohammed cartoons supposedly represented are not acceptable in the world, why doesn't the UN denounce this utterly offensive hate speech of one nation calling another the "Great Satan"?

No problem. We can ship some of these 'glow in the dark' pigs over to patrol the grounds of our Embassy.


When lit up in the dark, the pigs glow green
