It is a deliberate misrepresentation of what is said. In fact in both the Indian cultural context and the Iranian context, yelling "FU" or equivalent is considered much worse than yelling "Murdabad" - The meaning of words is all in the cultural context in which they are uttered. And yes cultural contexts can change over time.<br />Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07198667003900590106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-61666192748166738372018-05-03T20:09:46.871-04:002018-05-03T20:09:46.871-04:00Unk, that is not how it is interpreted here... it’...Unk, that is not how it is interpreted here... it’s intetpreted as a threat of death...Matt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-33798054794253205672018-05-03T20:08:56.428-04:002018-05-03T20:08:56.428-04:00All my stuff is open source Noah... :pAll my stuff is open source Noah... :pMatt Frankohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11978352335097260145noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-27296614003985984732018-05-03T19:26:59.341-04:002018-05-03T19:26:59.341-04:00"No need to be so formal for anything I contr..."No need to be so formal for anything I contribute"<br /><br />You don't contribute anything ... <br /><br />Noah Wayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12012500819097539976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-91118716017169094592018-05-03T18:06:15.360-04:002018-05-03T18:06:15.360-04:00Look up Murdabad

There has been no adjudication of "truth" by a fact finder. Iran never responded to the lawsuit so a default judgment was entered as a matter of course. If Iran has assets in the U.S., the plaintiffs could theoretically seize them to satisfy the money judgment. Otherwise, this means nothing.Bob Roddishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17263804608074597937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-30926218486584043772018-05-03T11:49:00.836-04:002018-05-03T11:49:00.836-04:00We have a diversity of opinions here at MNE.

Therefore, in order to steal the oil, the British savagely invaded and occupied Iraq on 2 May 1941 (“Operation Sabine”) and then savagely invaded and occupied Iran (“Operation Countenance”) on 17 Sep 1941 -- at which point the British installed their puppet dictator Mohammad Reza Pahlavi (aka the Shah).<br /><br />The shah’s brutality made him so unpopular that by 1953 he was obliged to flee to Rome, where he spent most of his time drinking in nightclubs. <br /><br />Meanwhile Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh nationalized Iran’s oil. Therefore the CIA got rid of Mosaddegh in a coup ("Operation Ajax") and reinstalled the shah as puppet dictator for the USA. <br /><br />And yet some people call Iran a “Soviet agent.”<br /><br />Incidentally, I notice how U.S. liberals today believe all the lies about Russia and Syria, but they are skeptical concerning the lies about Iran. Conservatives, meanwhile, believe all the lies about Iran, but are skeptical concerning the lies about Russia and Syria.<br /><br />Both sides (liberals and conservatives) call you a “traitor” and a “conspiracy theorist” and a "Russian agent" if you question war and imperialism.Konradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739209449391854796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2761684730989137546.post-41997907171199179152018-05-03T09:31:09.808-04:002018-05-03T09:31:09.808-04:00Matt,
