In recent weeks he launched an outspoken attack on Israel, calling for the Jewish state to be "wiped off the map". He also claimed the Nazi Holocaust, which killed six million Jews, was a "myth". I'm not sure that Iran wants freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their black market for music and western movies is quite extensive so they definately have their hands full trying to enforce this. They can control their theaters and radio stations but it will be harder to keep the citizens from being able to get the music they wan't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
