    • egthareal, on 07/12/2008, -5/+3Sucks to be the guy who photoshopped the original picture. Because you know they were like we need the best photoshopper in the country and he does it. Then he gets exposed. Then they kill him.

      Note to self: do not show off your photoshop skills in iran.... or you will die.
    • spankaccount, on 07/12/2008, -0/+2Thanks go to litlegreenfootballs.com for discovering the original photoshoped image. I was glad to see the NY TImes finally got around today to crediting them.
    • thdsn17, on 07/14/2008, -0/+1nah, then it would be too obvious. best to keep it subtle.
    • MissMyZDtv, on 07/21/2008, -0/+1corkscrewing refers to how modified scuds evaded patriot missiles after they were lightened to increase range from 300 to 600 miles and lost their balance in the process. The patriots didn't like that though.
  • wrathchilde, on 07/11/2008, -2/+378Missle Command?

    • BossKey, on 07/12/2008, -0/+9Iran's isolation from Western culture turned out to be its fatal flaw, when its entire missile fleet was destroyed in three minutes by a 12-year old American boy with a trackball.
  • kazimierczuk, on 07/11/2008, -4/+275Lets fire in all directions and see if we hit anyone.

    • nigh7dagger, on 07/11/2008, -5/+18This is a shop. I can tell because of the patterns, and because I've seen a few in my time.
    • Dabellah, on 07/11/2008, -10/+2Because of the patterns? How about the two missles heading directly towards each other from both sides of the screen? Thought that was a dead giveaway...
  • tropican8, on 07/11/2008, -1/+496This is from the BoingBoing Photoshop contest. Here are some other good ones:
