Can't wait for the BBC to start talking about possible war between the US/UK and Iran. That will boost Iran's tourism with flocks of human rights protestors flooding that country to protest the abuses of the US/UK, show their solidarity with the Imams, and offer themselves as human shields against the Western Imperialists.
Alas, one of my coworkers was born in Iran, and he visited his family there this past fall. He says it still is a wonderful place to visit. His family is Christians and thus avoid Tehran and keep their politics close. But then again, most tourist are not interested in discussing politics while on "holiday".
