Guy is probably dumbfounded by a lot of things that happened since the dark ages. He must be sitting there thinking "what?? I can't kill infidels where I find them??? Since when?"

Iran's leader not happy about "Mash Donalds" knock off in Tehran

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/irans-supreme-leader-not-happy-171700001.html

Some pretty ironic material in there.

The supreme leader of Iran went off about American influence in his country, saying that even with a newly struck nuclear deal, they will "block all attempts of penetration of Iran." The funny thing being that he said this on twitter. So much for blocking American culture.

Next we have general Mohammad Reza Naghdi, a leader of the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps: "We thought that they would bring Boeing technology, but they want to bring McDonald’s". So a General from a country we haven't had diplomatic ties with since the 70's, and are some what hostile towards, thinks that were gonna hand over classified Boeing technology to them.

We found leaders that are actually more delusional than G W Bush


On the bright side, Mash Donalds actually makes fresh hand cut fries. I want to see their menu.

70 years ago Japan quit fighting a war of aggression

In which many atrocities were committed (Nanking, non-Japanese east Asian's used as sex slaves for Japanese soldiers, Bataan death march, etc.) in the name of Japanese nationalism. The current PM of Japan spoke on this topic, and said that Japan has apologized enough, and future generations shouldn't have to keep repeating the same apology. For what its worth, I agree with him. Japanese youth of today had nothing to do with WW2... it happened, and we should be over it 70 years later.

We should also take a moment to thank everyone who helped bring that terrible part of world history to an end

Hillary asks people on twitter to explain how their student debt makes them feel in 3 emojis...

...because people who went to college can't express themselves using words?

Or is there an emoji with a stick figure trying to carry a 40,000 pound rock on their shoulders that I am not aware of?
