Iran Propaganda Special: The Green Sedition Festival (Pedestrian)

Pedestrian writes about an event whipped up by the regime for Qods (Palestine) Day:



Fars News today features photos from the “Green Sedition Festival” which is being held for Qods Day. What is worth noting is the strong emphasis on the Rajavis (the husband and wife who lead the "terrorist" group Mujahedin-e-Khalq). I’ve seen these sorts of festivals before, and there is always stronger emphasis on the West. In these posters however, opposition figures Mir Hossein Mousavi and his wife Zahra Rahnavard are literally born into the bodies of the MEK leaders.

I wonder: how many people pass by these posters and laugh? How many take them seriously?
