Man tries to rob a bank after he paid $500 to a wizard to make him invisible
If someone is claiming to be a wizard, and is offering to make you invisible for the low low price of $500, there’s probably a good chance he’s full of shit. One Iranian man learned that the hard way, when his brazen bank robbery quickly went bad, because he wasn’t invisible as promised.

Iranian scientist claims to have built a time machine
The device is apparently able to predict the next five to eight years of someone’s life with a 98% degree of accuracy, simply by taking an input reading from the subject’s touch and then printing out what is essentially a glorified version of the fortune part of a fortune cookie.

Everything you’ve wanted to know about the real life fake ‘Argo’ movie from 1980
In Ben Affleck’s Oscar-winning film ‘Argo’, the plot revolves around a real life CIA operation from 1980 in which six American hostages are rescued from Iran under the disguise of being part of a Canadian film crew doing a location scout for a movie also called ‘Argo’.

Iran released decoded video footage from their captured American spy drone
When an American spy drone went down and captured by the Iranian government last year, the Pentagon didn’t seem worried at all, saying that any information would be too damaged and/or impossible to decode, so whatevs Iran, take the stupid broken drone.
But this footage looks exactly like American drone video over Afghanistan, something Iran would find incredibly difficult to fake. This isn’t information the Iranians could actually get any use out of, but if this broken, “unhackable” drone can have its secrets teased out by Iran, it can happen again.

Blizzard cuts off World of Warcraft access to Iran
In order to comply with US trade sanctions against Iran, Blizzard cut off all access to World of Warcraft and WoW servers to all of Iran some time last week. Iranian players began flooding WoW forums, asking why they couldn’t connect, and Blizzard quickly stepped in and explained the situation. Because of the sanctions, Iranian players aren’t eligible for refunds for subscriptions they’ve previously purchased.

Obama was the one that ordered the Stuxnet attack against Iran
When the Stuxnet worm started crippling power plants in Iran, the program was so advanced, it was obvious it didn’t come from script kiddies. Last year, it was more or less confirmed that Stuxnet was a joint project between the US and Israel and today the New York Times is reporting that it was ordered directly by Barack Obama.

Thousands of women in Iran are training to be ninjas
Hell, the government already makes them dress like ninjas, why not become ninjas?
The Ninjustu school in Iran was started in 1989 by Sensei Akbar Faraji. This was the first time the martial art was introduced to the country.
