It seems the Logo for the London Olympics
in 2012 is offensive to The Mad Mullahs of Iran.
The London logo shows the numbers “2012” in four jagged figures and until now has only been criticised for its design.
Now we are being told that, looked at in a certain light, at a certain angle, and with certain eye defects, it is the word “Zion”.
Zion is a term that can refer to the city of Jerusalem or Israel as the national home of the Jewish people. Iran does not recognise Israel.
Iran does not even recognise that the Holocaust is an historical event.
“Certainly other countries, including Islamic nations, will react to this racist logo and this would jeopardise the goals of the Olympic games in the world,” said Bahram Afsharzadeh, the general secretary of Iran National Olympic Committee.
He warned the International Olympic Committee that “negligence of the issue from your side might affect the presence of some countries, especially Iran.”
Obviously some members of the ruling class in Iran have been forgetting to wear their Tinfoil Hats.
Hi,
Things just seem to be getting more and more ridiculous by the day. Really if you look hard enough at anything, you can see whatever you want to see.

It’s too fiddly and it’s pink, but anything else is in the fevered imagination of the beholder.’
I never knew tin foil hats were so popular.

And they definitely have fevered imaginations! I wear my tinfoil hat most days. It stops the Faux News radiations from infecting my brains.

To me, it looks like it spells, “Zar,” as in, “Zardoz.”

To me it looks like a slightly abstract feminine Swastika. How odd …

I knew there was something Swastika-like it looked like, don’t remember any critics mentioning it when it was first shown, but it is so rubbish that I guess we all just forgot about it.

The swastika was my first thought when it was unveiled!
