Iran.

Photo from Free Me Now.

This is probably a photoshop, I doubt that this lady would get anywhere near as close to Ahmadinejad as this without being jumped on by security and I feel that the photo is somewhat familiar but without her. Much as this photo appeals, I hope it is a fake, as if it isn’t she would be at this stage getting a very bad time in Evian prison.

Regardless of the authenticity I love it as even if not genuine it is almost an artistic rendition of what would appear to be the relationship between the Iranian State and its people. It is a little reminiscent of “Tankman:”

The only problem I have with it is that it distracts from the brutal reality of daily life in Iran such as Neda:

And the brutal murder of protestors as witnessed here.
