Another perspective on Iran

Most people in the Western world are brain-washed by the Western media. Including me.

We should all open our eyes and see things from different angles.

My mental picture of Iran looked something like this:

Poverty

Muslim women

I imagined that Iran was:

  • A very poor country - a desert, something like Afghanistan
  • A country were women were hugely oppressed

I think this picture is common (at least in Denmark), since that's how the media paints Iran for us. I have collected some pictures that will open your eyes for another Iran.

Do note that I am not stating that everything is great in Iran, I am just stating that nothing is black and white, i.e. there is a lot of problems in Iran, but also a lot beauty.
