David Cameron's Porn Filter Problem Has Already Been Solved
By Tim Worstall, Contributor I must admit that this rather surprised me with the speed that it came about. Non-British readers might not be aware that David Cameron, our Prime Minister, has been adamant that search engine companies must make certain that no pornography can be found on the internet. This is, as you will imagine, something of a taxing technical task. But in that great British tradition of bodging and innovation we seem to already have the solution to this problem. And it’s being offered for free too: So taking inspiration from other great Internet filtering nations such as North Korea, China, Syria, Iran, Cuba, Bahrain, Belarus, Burma, Uzbekistan, Saudia Arabia and Vietnam I decided to help out the UK government and build an Internet filter that only allows pornographic material through. …read more

Another Christian Convert Tried in Iran
By Joseph DeCaro, Worthy News Correspondent
TEHRAN, IRAN (Worthy News)– A Christian convert was tried in July by Branch 2 of the Revolutionary Court in Robat Karim.
Ebrahim Firouz was tried for attempting to launch a Christian website, contacting suspicious foreigners, running online church services and promoting Christian Zionism, according to Mohabat News.
Firouz was apprehended by four security officers in plainclothes who raided his workplace in March; they also confiscated his personal property that included books about Christianity.
After spending 53 days in custody, Firouzi was temporarily released from Evin Prison after posting $15,000 (USD) bail; he was later transferred back to Evin where he was subjected to ten days of intense interrogation.
In its annual report, the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom revealed that Iran was one of the worst violators of religious freedom in the world; the report accused Iran frequently arresting and harassing religious minorities, thereby creating an atmosphere of terror amongst them.
Although the Iranian Constitution recognizes religious freedom and the rights of non-Islamic faiths, the Islamic Republic of Iran doesn't even observe its own laws, much less the international convention it signed to provide religious freedom to its own citizens.

Was Israel’s Latest ‘Air’ Attack on Syria from a Submarine? | The Weekly Standard
By Dave Robbins
An attack two weeks ago that destroyed an advanced Russian missile shipment delivered to Syria’s Assad regime should also serve as a warning to Iran – and to those complacent Western diplomats who have (dangerously in my view) reconciled themselves to the idea of allowing Iran to go nuclear and then trying to contain it.

Harris Tweed was Cold War ‘uniform’ for CIA
By hnn
WHILE British secret agents of the 1970s were portrayed on TV in tight blue jeans, shirts with huge collars, ludicrous wide ties and brown cardigans – a la The Professionals – their real-life equivalents on the other side of the Atlantic opted for … Harris Tweed.
The American hero behind the Iran hostage rescue featured in the film Argo has revealed the fashion style of CIA agents during the Cold War as he was honoured for services to the famous Scots cloth.
Tony Mendez was played in the Best Picture of the Year Oscar-winner by Ben Affleck, whose Harris Tweed jacket is giving the fabric its highest-profile Hollywood exposure in years.
Former agent Mendez, speaking in New York, confirmed that the movie reflected reality and that Harris Tweed had been “part of what every agent wore” during his time in the service…..
