Iran to send man into space by 2019

[Roybot]

On a more serious note, if Iran can pull this off, they get my respect.

It's more likely they give more importance giving the illusion of greatness. Making grandiose claims and whatever else it takes to keep Iran in the headlines to make themselves seem relevant (Baghdad Bob would be proud). They crave to be the main regional power.

They could make claims tomorrow to have reverse engineered a flying saucer. And some here would believe every word they said and herald how great they are for having done it.

Well you guys sure helped them along the path to being the regional power by knocking off Saddam and bring in a Shia government riddled with Iranian agents.

Good luck to Iran
They can achieve it with Russian or Chinese help
But the Islamic regime could fall before that
Middle east is changing fast and Khamenei could the the next Mubarak
