Welcome to Canada

No Iranians were harmed in the taking of this photo.


Iran, led by the forever ignorant Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has issued a travel ban for the most preposterous reasons:

Iran's foreign ministry issued a statement Wednesday referring to the break in diplomatic ties, saying that's primarily why Iranians should avoid travel to Canada.

The state-run news agency IRNA said the ministry has deemed there is growing "Islamophobia and Iranophobia" in Canada.

The Tehran Times said the Iranian Foreign Ministry issued the travel advisory because criminals and "anti-Iranian groups" bent on revenge could now target Iranians visiting Canada, knowing they no longer have an embassy.

IRNA quoted the ministry as saying Iranians in Canada have been denied the right to access their bank accounts to "do ordinary transactions."


Now, why wouldn't one come to Canada? We don't rape or gun down political dissidents, nor are homosexuals hanged publicly. Perhaps one should ask who would want to go or stay in Iran?


And let's not forget the scenery!

Look at that blue water!
The Rockies- decidedly neutral in Middle East issues.
Could this have been Mohammad's canoe?
A stuffed bear? Or a Zionist in disguise?!

Nothing anti-Iranian here.

I am intrigued by the Iranian news agency's claim that there is " ...growing 'Islamophobia and Iranophobia' in Canada." It seems to me that almost NO ONE here talks, or even thinks about Iran. I guess they don't consider it ...IMPORTANT enough to worry about it.
