Syria-Lebanon-Iran
New Civil Disorders in Iran
2004-04-04
Windows of several banks and public buildings were smashed in Esfahan during a protest demo which took place, today, in the Jey Avenue. Hundreds of residents defyied the security forces and set tires abalze in order to show their anger of the local Islamic funds’ empty promises on the restitution of millions of Tomans (Iranian currency) of their deposited assets. The rumor of the bankruptcy of the local Islamic funds has resulted on massive withdraws and is leading toward its collapse.

There's a section called "Syria-Lebanon-Iran."

The country I can't find a section for is Turkey.

#5  MS - I have the same problem regards Turkey. When I looked elsewhere, posts on Turkey had been lumped into the "Europe" category. I find this hysterical, since they are not treated as if they are part of Europe by the Europeans! Methinks Fred is having us on, heh. ;-)

Just a little youthful exhuberance during the, er, glass festival they are celebrating?
