This was titled "Why Isn't Iran Cheering?". It shows not all Iranians are inclined to support terror, and it keeps a little hope alive, at least for me, that one day they and America can be friends.
One thing I did find disturbing was the poster of the female suicide bomber saying "I love motherhood, but I love martyrdom more".
"Parvin Heydari, an Iranian mother of two, was flipping back and forth between the nightly news and Oprah when a bulletin on an Iranian state channel caught her attention. It urged Iranians to boycott what it called "Zionist products," including those made by Pepsi, Nestlé and Calvin Klein, and warned that profits from such products "are converted into bullets piercing the chests of Lebanese and Palestinian children." As evidence, the voice-over intoned, "Pepsi stands for 'pay each penny to save Israel.'" Heydari says she changed the channel, as she has no intention of crossing Nestlé's Nesquik off her shopping list. "Lebanon has nothing to do with us," she says. "We should mind our own business and concentrate on policies that are good for our economy, and our kids."
