Whiners

An adviser to Iran's president on Sunday demanded an apology from a team of visiting Hollywood actors and movie industry officials, including Annette Bening, saying films such as "300" and "The Wrestler" were "insulting" to Iranians.

Oh, my.

The film "300," portrays the battle of Thermopylae in 480 B.C., in which a force of 300 Spartans held off a massive Persian army at a mountain pass in Greece for three days. It angered many Iranians for the way Persians are depicted as decadent, sexually flamboyant and evil in contrast to the noble Greeks.

Well, that and the fact that a bunch of half-neeeekid Greeks whomped you and that was the highpoint of your "civilization". It's been downhill ever since for y'all.

I'll tell you what. Apologize for holding US citizen hostage, apologize for funding various terrorist groups, apologize for funneling material into Iraq, apologize for...

Addendum: Of course. It's all a plot.
