I've Been Thinking:

Iran has just announcement a new arrival - the Iranians have a new satellite.
Like proud parents, the Iranians even supplied footage of their newest production.

This satellite is totally home grown.
The Iranians made every part of this satellite.
Until now Iran was hiring, buying and commissioning the components needed for satellite technology.
Iran has reached a new high in their technological capability.

This new satellite is called OMID which means hope in Persian.
It is a three month satellite, it will orbit and then it will be replaced.
The OMID was launched into orbit by the Safir satellite rocket and the images on Iranian state TV were very impressive.

Anyone who thinks the Iranians are a backward people is seriously mistaken.
This satellite is further proof that Iran is home to great technical minds.

Read my new book THUGS. It's easy. Just click.
