The logo is a zionist conspiracy, apparently.

But watch the committee change it to placate them. Otherwise, I say stay home.

They say it spells "Zion." Which it does, if you read it in columns:

ZO
IZ

then you have to rotate the second Z 90 degrees to get the N and find the conspiracy.

Of course, it says 2012 if you don't read it in columns, but left to right (like most of the Western world does) and don't rotate bottom right character... Half Grin

I honestly didn't see the 2012...I thought it was some kind abstract image of the continents smushed together.

Apparently some people think this image depicts two people engaged in a sexual act. I have to admit, I can kinda see it.

Now that you mention it... I can see that too! ROFL

Nobody here likes the logo because it looks like not only two people engaged in a sexual act, but most are convinced that the 'giver' is Lisa Simpson.

They won't change it, it was designed five years ago and has been used to promote the games which are now just 16 months away.

As they wouldn't change it even though pretty much the entire country hated it and thought it looked like Lisa Simpson giving head, they're hardly going to change it for our best pals the Iranians. That thing cost £40,000 to design btw. Fills you with confidence for the Olympics doesn't it? Borris Johnson playing 'wiff-waff', Leona 'horse-face' Lewis on a Bendy-Bus and Lisa Simpson giving head. At least it should be one to remember.

We're never going to live this one down.

Good. If the fundies in Iran are offended, then they deserve to be offended. I'm being offensive by say this. ROFL

Shows ya how out of the loop I am. I don't know who Lisa Simpson is.

When's the last time Iran won an Olympic Medal in anything? Won't really make a difference if they come or not, they'll come home empty handed anyways. ^^

See? I don't even watch the Simpsons. In fact, I've never seen a complete episode.

If 72 virgins was the prize instead of a medal, they would. Big Grin

2008. Hadi Saei won the gold in men's taekwondo 80 kg and Morad Mohammadi won the bronze in men's freestyle wrestling 60 kg.

Iran will attend after all

Huge sighs of relief all round Very Happy

by **TexasBlue** Sun Mar 13, 2011 6:55 am

Iran realized nobody was buying their bullshit.

by kronos Sun Mar 13, 2011 8:56 am

For two terrifying weeks though, it looked like Iran wasn't going to bless us with their presence.

Truly, this was the Cuban missile crisis of the 21st century.
