Every good topic is bound to have imitators. And every imitator is bound to have spoofs! I'll start:
Women can't go to watch soccer, even though there were numerous women going to root for the Iranian soccer team in Germany.

I have many things that I hate about Iran but none of which I like. They not stopping their nuke project like the US and UN say to. About supporting the hasbala troops that US alley is fighting. Lot's of bad things are going out of Iran.

The people seem to be thoughtful and well educated and they haven't nuked anybody. I'm not sure I can say that about Americans.

Arash. He's a techno artist, and he's from Iran. He now lived in Sweden, though.

For fighting irag (supported by the west). For proving that the west can not always get what dictatorships they like.

Root has a different meaning in Aus. Which did you mean?

I like than Iran was once at war with Iraq and they killed a lot of each other.

Hanging/stoning gay people, and other ridiculous and inhuman Shari'a-based atrocities.

Tchahar-Shanbe Souri, the Zoroastrian fire festival, is one thing I like about Iran.
Abgousht is quite tasty, though the texture can be a bit off-putting.
And there's a soft spot in my liver for Aarak...

I listed a person that I do like from Iran. She is a writer who writes about the real Iran, not the "Iran for Dummies" that everyone seems to enjoy making fun of.
