A Christian Christmas in Snowy Iran
Yep. That’s Iran. Tehran, Iran. The Hub of Human Evil. According to American hate radio, anyway. Snowy Tehran on a peaceful winter day. Makes you think of Boulder, don’t it? Surrounded by snow-covered mountains? Those are the Alborz Mountains. And they are higher than the Rockies. They are the highest peaks in Asia west of the Himalayas, in fact – with skiing on the upper slopes all year round.Shocked? I certainly was when I first started surfing the web for photos of Iran. I was shocked by the mountains. Shocked by the snow. Shocked by the busy ski shops. Shocked by the "cool dudes" throwing snowballs in their trendy clothes. Shocked by the American-looking yellow school bus in the upper right photo there. Shocked by something in every photo I saw.
But most of all I was shocked by my shock. I was shocked by the fact that a reasonably well-educated, well-informed man like me, who reads at least a dozen alternative news sites like this one daily, should have so many misconceptions in my head about Iran – without my even being aware they were there. Like the notion that Iran is one big, brain-baking desert. Or that Iran is hostile to Christians and women.
Read more please,
HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Thank you for posting!
There are many Iranians living happy here in America and all of them are free from all oppression. And if their civil rights are violated the American justice system will step in and prosecute any violator.
You would definitely be satisfied with our American system in seeing how these hate mongers get pummeled by the huge majority of American citizens and the journalists with the right mentality.
And, most important, thank you for your great blogs and pictures!
By the way, are you familiar with Colorado? I used to live there and indeed Boulder is a beautiful city. But alas, it is too cold for me. I will enjoy the snow in pictures only!
that's a great pictures you have here , Thank you for post that
