Iran

We come in peace

We're glad to hear that a new long-distance weapon carries a message of peace and friendship:

Iran has unveiled an unmanned, long-distance bomber drone described by the country's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, as "an ambassador of death" to Tehran's enemies.

At a ceremony today, Ahmadinejad said the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) – named Karrar, meaning "striker" in Persian – had "a main message of peace and friendship" but was intended to deter aggression "and keep the enemy paralysed in his bases".

I admit, upon first hearing of the new weapon, I was worried. Now I think we can all relax and go back to our daily lives.
