Ahmadinejad and his antisemitic cronies are fuming with anger after discovering the Star of David on the roof of Iran Air headquarters at Tehran's airport. The building was originally built by Israeli engineers prior to the the Islamic Revolution.
Nobody noticed the Jewish symbol until someone found it in Google Maps. The building—which hosts their national airline at the Mehrabad International Airport—was built by Israeli engineers before the 1979 Islamic Revolution. The star has been hidden in plain sight for more than four decades now.
It won't stay there for much longer. According to The Jerusalem Post, Iranian government officials have already ordered its destruction.
Wow. 40+ years. :)
Am I the only one who thinks this is funny as hell?
Anybody who f***s their goats and covers their women in black bedsheets doesn't have a sense of humor.
I, on the other hand, think it's a riot. :D
1979 + 40 = 2019 :P
Even funnier is if the star wasn't intended but actually has some engineering reason for existing. So when they tear it down, the building collapses or the A/C stops working or something.
Along the same lines, the barracks at Naval Station Coronado are in the shape of a swastika. Up until Google Earth cam around no one knew anything about it.
BTW that's damn funny ;D
um swasitaks are actually a simple that has been used for thousands of years all over the globe, all for good things.
it was not until the nazi came along that it became "bad" .
I wonder if they intend to destroy the Star of David, or the entire building. Perhaps once the symbol is removed, the building will become a legitimate target for the I.D.F. when the inevitable war starts.Are you kidding me, the damn thing has been an aiming point. Generations of IDF pilots have probably been betting on who could hit the center. ;D This story is one of the funniest things I've read in days. Kilroy was here indeed. ;D(http://i204.photobucket.com/albums/bb294/pioneer461/Flags%20and%20Icons/israe.gif)
um swasitaks are actually a simple that has been used for thousands of years all over the globe, all for good things.Its actually a pretty tactical design for a military building as well. Lots of overlapping fields of fire and no blind spots. I doubt it will become trendy or anything, but still... ;D
it was not until the nazi came along that it became "bad" .
Its was also used in india, africa, the Native americans used it...
Out side of australia, I can think of a continent it was not used in.
Dont discount the penguins. they are very sneaky.
