In October of 1990, a 15 year old Kuwaiti girl known as “Nurse Nayirah” testified before US Congress saying she witnessed occupying Iraqi troops take babies out of incubators and intentionally leave them for dead. While the event was instrumental in convincing the American public to launch a bloody war, it was also proven to be a well orchestrated and well financed propaganda operation designed for that very purpose. Nayirah turned out to be the daughter of the Kuwaiti ambassador to the United States and the “testimony” was directed by the PR firm Hill and Knowlton. In retrospect, no one can blame the girl for the mass deception. She was under age, and her own country had just been invaded by a foreign enemy. 20 years later, Shohreh Aghdashloo has been cast in the same role for the same purpose, but she does not have the same excuses.

Kudos to Ms. Aghdashloo

Nothing portrayed in the Iranium is a lie, we know that.  The Islamic Rapist Cultist is engaged in a dangerous game and the world cannot allow it to go Nuclear.  Don't get me wrong.  Iran has every right to become nucler both for the bomb and peacefull purposes.  It just cannot do it while the rapist Mullahs are in power.  Only, when we can behave as a reponsible country and people, can we attempt to go nuclear.  Not a day before. So Ms. Aghdashloo, good job.  Keep up the good work.
