Iran's Mehrs News Agency has been caught red-lasso-tool'd faking images of its missile program before. However this image featuring universally-loathed Star Wars character Jar Jar Binks accidentally(?) made the front page of the same news organization today. This is notable not only because of the obvious hilarity, but because this image was created to mock their previous Photoshop scandals.
Can't tell if really stupid of just really big Star Wars fans.

Foreign Policy Online has a fun game where people can guess whether quotes belong to Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei or GOP Presidential hopeful Rick Santorum.
It's... frighteningly difficult.

The video above is a trailer for the "documentary game" in which "you play the cat of Dr. Mohammed Mossadegh, the first democratically elected Prime Minister of Iran." In 1953, the CIA engineered a coup to bring him down, and that's how it relates back to politics (because we are all about relevance here).
I'm all on board because it's learning + history + politics + gaming + cats. Also the trailer has Nine Inch Nails. A+!
