5 hours agoIranian plant that produces American and Israeli flags to burn
Periskopi(6 years ago)
(6 years ago)Near the birthplace of the late Iranian leader, Ajetolah Ruholah Khomenini, workers in a small Iranian factory diligently add 50 stars and 13 red-to-white lines to what are supposed to be American flags. They also carefully design Israelite flags. But these flags are not produced to stay [...]
But these flags are not produced to stand in spears. American and Israeli flags produced in this factory are used to burn at various Iranian gatherings.
The dyba Parcham Khomen company serves as a major producer of American and Israeli flags that are constantly burning in pro-government rallies in the Islamic Republic.
Another group of flags is preparing for the 41st anniversary of Tuesday's Iranian revolution. The festivities will take on special symbolic significance amid escalating tensions with Washington following the US attack on Baghdad, where Iran's General, Qassem Solejmani, was killed last month.
However, the owner of the factory, like many high-class Iranians, hopes for better relations between Tehran and the US.
“I hope one day the flags we produce come as a gift,” the owner of the factory, Abolfazl Khanyan, said for the Associated Press.
However, that day has not yet come to Khomein, a city known as the birthplace of the founder of the Islamic Republic. The factory is in the nearby suburb of Heshmatieh. Once painted, the flags then hang to dry in the factory.
