Will U.S. Embassy in Iran become ‘Great Satan Park’?
Tourists and thrillseekers in Iran could have a new attraction in downtown Tehran: the former United States Embassy being converted into a “Great Satan Park.”
A top Iranian commander is calling for the creation of such a theme park at the one-time location U.S. facility, which has seen a troubled history dating back to the Carter administration of the 1970s.
“We would be able to nicely show off the American crimes to citizens strolling in the park,” General Mir-Faisal Bagherzadeh told the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency. “The former American Den of Spies should become the park of Great Satan.”
Bagherzadeh is in charge of the Sacred Defense Foundation, a propaganda organ originally created to commemorate the 1980-88 Iran-Iraq war.
The property is perhaps best known from 1979 news footage, when in the wake of Iran’s Islamic revolution that toppled the U.S.-backed shah, the embassy was taken over by Islamist students, with 52 staffmembers taken hostage for 444 days.
The downtown location is now used for military training by Iran’s ideological army, the Revolutionary Guards, while the main building also serves as a museum to display the “documents of American espionage and crimes against the Islamic Republic of Iran.
Wild Thing’s comment……
Yep keep pushing our buttons Iran. Poor little glow in the dark Ahmadinejad wanna be world ruler.
Here ya go……Click on image below turn up volume to hear Samuel Jackson quote Ezekiel 25:17 passage from movie Pulp Fiction
Heh… well, if they want to create an anti-american propaganda park, thats fully within their rights. They should consider it works both way though – the more they hate the US, the more the US hates them. And if there is ever a military conflict… no contest.
Eight Dinars gets you a full day’s recreation on the midway, tickets to the Love Tunnel of Goat Land (something every Persian has experience with) all the Corn Dogs you can eat (dogs stuffed with corn), and a free demolition vest for Baby Abu. Bring the wives and kids. Offer good while Teheran lasts.
Rhod….ROTFLMAO oh my gawd I love it!!
moslems are the only ones who violate embassies and diplomatic grounds. That embassy, by the rules of all worldly groups, is still American property.
We can convert it to a theme park also, similar to Chernobyl.
WT, you are your usual great self with that Bible passage and Samuel Jackson. Perfect!
Thanks, WT. I actually like the idea of a Great Satan Park. It’s so much more compelling than just Satan Park or Big Satan Park. It makes me want to go there. Iran, for its problems and dangers, is almost beyond parody.
Tom thank you this is good…heh heh….”theme park also, similar to Chernobyl”.
Rhod hahahahaha
I see what you mean, they already made us GREAT instead of just “big”. hahahaha
Love it now. hahaha
