"Thumbs-up" has a very different meaning to Persians than it does to Westerners...

The text reads “authorities to the journalists who visited the nuclear facilities, as you see, Iran is not implementing the resolution”. Remembering that showing the thumb in Persian is the equivalent to the finger gesture, the picture has a very explicit meaning, which terrifies me.
