The following captions spring to mind...

or..
"Revulitionary Home Guard come up wit revolutionary solution to risin' sea levels".
or...
"Top brass confident that public concern surrounding the rumour of an inbound tsunami has been dispelled..."
or....
"Is there a display case to go with it, Abdul?"
and finally...
"Tehran defence scientists come up with solution to next-generation high speed patrol boat non-waterproof camel glue design flaw. Sorted..."

When a country has to do that in public and make its media post it around the world, I really do feel safe in my bed at night what a bunch of pathetic low life stone age people, get on with making a living and enjoying life.

frankly , and i'm not one for PC crap and whatever else but, calling them low life stone age people, because they are doing exactly what british and american and other people do is frankly pathetic. Do we not show pictures of an incredibly long winded pulling down of a Sadam statue when we do something. DO we not show pictures of all the destruction and damage we do on TV to show how powerful we are. Do we not make a ceremony out of everything, stick it on camera and brag to the world about how great we are? but if they do it, you call them low life stone age people?
Why do some people simply not get that, 100 years ago the world wasn't far off equal in technology terms. Maybe people don't learn history in school well anymore, as our schools are crap. Do you not know that the industrial revolution took us from a poor state of affairs to world leaders. Had Iran had the industrial revolution, they would be the people invading other countries for whatever natural resources they had and mocking people on the internet about how "stone age" they appeared.
fairly sure wars will continue untill we stop looking down at other people.
That's not gonna happen. tbh it shows the intelligence and gullability of people hasen't changed in the last 50 years, still haven't learnt anything. Millions dead because seen as "sub species" and the same crap is happening again (hatred of another race)
Surely the pic is to scare the Yanks, I mean look closely at it, am I the only one that sees a giant guy balancing a boat full of people on his head? If they've got more giant blokes who can also balance boats full of people on their heads like him then G W Bush and Co. have severely underestimated them!

yup, though in this case its not hatred of Iraq's or Iranians, we invaded so we can take control of the oil purely because we see them as "less than" and so its morally ok. Would we bomb the crap out of New york and go and take their, i dunno, what does new york have, good pizza, errm, Godzilla(sometimes) whatever, we wouldn't We see american's as well, the same as us. Its would be the same as bombing northern England, its just wrong. If Iraq had exactly the same level of tech and same cities as america and the uk had, they had the same ideals and religion, they looked and spoke the same as us then we wouldn't have invaded them. Its only because in general people think less of "other" people and other cultures(that are seen as in a lesser state) that we think its completely fine to do what we did.
I mean, ask anyone in the UK, whats someone from Iraq ever done to you? answer, nothing, nothing at all. so it can't be about hate. Sure, tbh i do feel some people are worth less than me, but not based on location, race, colour, religion(well if you believe in one i think less of you than if you don't believe in god, but i treat all people that believe in religion the same, i'm good like that
). but i don't use thinking someone is worth less than me to be a reason to pick on, mock, speak ill of, or kill for personal gain.EDIT:- or amusement

Why aren't the south american tribesman advanced in technology?
probably because there was no need for it. They lived perfectly well without, but we needed to compete.
And the same could be said for areas that aren't as technologcally advanced. Doesn't make them "inferior" to us though.
I never sad it did, but the middle-east was fairly advanced.
and the middle-east certainly would have had competition unlike random nomadic rain forest tribes.

Many reasons;
a) Larger countries, harder to co-ordinate, took many many years longer for continental europe to industrialise (bar the Netherlands)
b) Revolution and political system; England had seen change unlike never before politically
c) Competition with Europe, competing against France for example and other economies, particularly that of the Netherlands.
d) Middle east had been crippled for centuries by war etc.
