Nothing drives an oppressive regime down into apathy more than people "playing by the rules" and yet becoming triumphant! No need for "regime change" just keep on winning!

Embarrassing

What sane society dresses up it;s athletes with these ridiculous out fits. Are girls suppose to cover themselves up from other girls now too. Really sad what Iran has become under mullah's rule…

Australia is a very strong team. No wonder the mollahs are keeping them under the wrap! The persian blood runs deep inside of them despite the Arab's influence on the surface! You go girls! You show them how brave our iranian women are!

But, I prefer the opponents better for socializing. Sorry, boys wanna have fun!
