Surprised that Iran let them get away with it.

THing should've read

TEHRAN, Iran, (AP) - Some 200 masked young men and women gathered at a Tehran cemetery Thursday to pledge their willingness to carry out suicide bomb attacks against Americans in Iraq and Israelis, thus draggin' their country of origin into a war-situation with the most militarily powerful nation on the face of the earth. Shortly thereafter...Iran militia came along and told them to STFU...using bullets.

Idiots!

That's not proper AP style. This is what it REALLY should have read:

TEHRAN, Iran, (AP) - Some 200 masked young men and women who gathered at a Tehran cemetery Thursday to pledge their willignness to carry out suicide bumb attacks against Americans in Iraq and Israelis were gunned down by Iranian forces.

Iranian officials said the move was a pre-emptive strike on certain doom at the hands of the American military.

You guys havern't learned a thing have you? This is how that story should have looked:

Murder in Tehran
Some 200 devout Muslims gathered in a cemetary on the city's north side last night. pledging to carry out vigils of peace & love when the American dictator GW Bush & his imperialistc military ambushed & murdered them in cold blood. Our Muslim brothers & sisters were wearing masks, in homage to the lost Hamas Muslims at the hands of the American guard dog, Israel. The last thing heard was, "Allah, peace be upon him, has seen way to speed our entry to heaven tonight....please avenge our death by any means necessary & join us", by one of the peace loving Muslims.
