Well, my plan to move there and open a BBQ joint just fell through the floor. Who wants pork ribs in Iran with no pool to go with it?

Now I can't tell my kids "Just wait till we move to Iran, you'll get a good wipping then!" Now they'll be lawless again, running amuck in the house!

Erm, in a muslim country, you'd better not try to sell pork - no matter whether they allow pool or not. :o

Pork Burgers are off but there's a free suicide jacket with every upsized Happy Hostage Meal. You are never closer to Allah than when gnawing on a piece of gristley congealed goats ears fried in batter.

JAM.......you leave pool to the superior sex and just concentrate on getting Keith's dinner ready on time and keeping the house clean and you'll fit right in when you move there:)

You are aware of the large differences between Iran and Iraq? ;)
 
Here's how it sounds and a translation to the bottom sentence:

Hoshdar bay massooleen: Billiard heram ast. Fooran laneh hayeh fesad bayad basteh shavand.

Translation: " A warning to owners. Billiards is prohibited. These nests of corruption must immediately close."

I can't make out the rest of the poster, but it has all the makings of a fatva on it. It's just another attempt to repress the 70% of the Iranian population who weren't alive or were too young to remember the Islamic Revolution, (i.e. Khomeini coming to power by overthrowing the Shah), and keep them from being proactive and westernizing the country.

BTW, that is Persian Farsi, NOT Arabic.

No mate, not a clue:rolleyes:

During 4 years living in Saudi Arabia including 45 days in prison, followed by 4 years living in Yemen, followed by 4 years living in Egypt, followed by 19 years living in UAE to date (including 23 days in prison) and having travelled extensively elsewhere throughout the region during those 31 years for additional short duration assignments which the nature of my work demands, including Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon, Qatar, Oman, Iraq (where I still go every second month), Iran (where I have a representative office and where I go approximately once every 3 months on average), Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan, plus having spent quite some time dealing with some of the maritime collateral consequences of the Iraq/Iran war.....during all that time I have kept my eyes and ears completely shut and have never experienced anything of either country nor ever met a single Iraqi or Iranian (except for the two in our pool team and the one in one of our four balls, all of whose brains I intended to pick on the poster had others not beat me to it, as it happens, so I haven't bothered).

What on earth in a clearly non-serious post about Mcdonalds which you quoted could possibly have prompted your strange question?

Sorry, I did not realize that you posted repeatedly in this thread. Reading the quoted sentence isolated from the rest, the impression comes fairly easily. Again, my apologies :cool:
