Iran Tech


Gizmodo has more Iran GIMP love



These ones really cracked me up...


Mahmoud Ahmadinejad makes you feel

He’s a cool exec with a heart of steel.

As Iran Man, all jets ablaze,

He’s fighting and smiting with repulsor rays!

Amazing armor! That’s Iran Man!

A blazing power! That’s Iran Man!

Nuclear Iran Powered by Open Source Software
