Boosting the Morale with Old Pictures

By Kamangir • Jul 10th, 2008 • Category: Features, Islamic Republic, Lead Story, Picture of the Day

If you thought the Islamic Republic had only once made the “mistake” of using old images for propaganda (see: Iranian Missile Drill: Pictures do not Lie!), well, they seem to have plans to go ahead with it for some more time (on top of using Photoshop of course).

In today’s pictorial report of the state-run television, form Sepah’s drill, there is a picture we had seen before.

Supposedly taken recently

    So if this is a lie why there is so much fuss about it and also do you think they need to put the updated pictures of their new weapons if keeping them as a secret make it more powerful. Like Israel which never accept or deny having nuclear weapons. This is a better strategy isn’t it?
