A Terrorist Theme Park?

Here's one that seemed pretty unbelievable.  In Beirut, where people are still recovering from their ill-concieved rocket attack on Israel... this video describes a $4 million dollar theme park:

However, it's confirmed by several news sources.  And you can visit their website here.

And, of course, it's full of the usual double-speak.  With guides making statements like "If the Israelis don't attack us, we won't attack them".

Makes perfect sense.  If you consider "attack" to mean "have any presence in the middle east."

Or if you consider the targeting of civilian complexes (such as airports and hotels) in Israel to be "self defense."

Peaceful "resistance"?  Actions in self-defense?  I think not.

Iran's been punked. Really!

Here's one that I originally thought had to be a fabrication.  But, several reputable sources are lining up to report it.  Broken clocks do give the correct time twice daily, I suppose.

ISRAELIS MAKE IT A VERY HAPPY CHANUKAH IN IRAN! POSTED BY BLACKFIVE • [DECEMBER 02, 2010] The Israelis built this airport for the Iranians sometime in the early 1970's... They put a Star of David on the roof with the Iranians remaining absolutely clueless about it. Almost four decades later, the Iranians find out via Google Earth imagery what the Israelis did...and they ain't happy about it.

 

This is all over the news right now.  Here's a report from FoxNews    about how the Iranians are outraged (that they never noticed, in 38 years, that there was a Star of David on top of their airport). Happy Chanukah!

Some sources backing this up, from all over the political spectrum:

• Al Aribya
• ABC News
• Jerusalem Post

Of course, Israel had relatively good relations with Iran at the time - it was built when the Shah's government was in power.  Not much as far as political statements go - except for the fact that most folks never really look at their rooftops.
