Shhh, Maybe It'll Slip Their Minds

You may have noticed that Iran hasn't been demonstrating about the Flotilla Raid. Well, that's because next Saturday is the anniversary of the whole Presidential election thing and they know if they tell their people to demonstrate against Israel, they'll respond "You want a demonstration, I'll give you a demonstration." And out come the green shirts. So, give it a week and back to Twitter to monitor the situation. I still can't say "the situation" without thinking of "The Jersey Shore." Dammit, Snooki, stay out of my Iranian politics.

Hamas A Menos

Apparently Hamas is taking flash animation classes from the Tiger Woods reenactment animators because they just sent out a message via video that comes off more as an entry in a foreign language short film competition than it does a warning of things to come. That is, until you get to the end.

The large headed figure trodding along the pavement represents the father of the Israeli soldier who was captured 5 years ago. He ages as he walks around town carrying the portrait of his son, waiting for him to return home. Spoiler alert: the kid comes home in a coffin. Nice one, Hamas, you're masters at the PR game. I'd have more respect for you if you did a reenactment of Snooki getting bitch slapped in a bar fight.
