Iran

Here is a joke from Tehran that sums up the situation there:

In Iran we always use this joke to describe this situation:

They say that a group sees a fox that is running away, they ask him, "Why are you running away?" The fox says, "The ruler has ordered that all foxes that have three testicles be killed." They note, "But you have two testicles," and the fox responds, "But first they kill and then they count."

This is exactly the situation activists in Iran are facing. Any crisis is an excuse to suppress them; their crimes have been decided beforehand.

The above is from Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. This is a US government funded operation, so I guess you can say that the US taxpayers are in the business of funding Iranian "jokes"!
