A foreign reporter goes to Iran and visits a mosque. He sees people lined up for food. He asks somebody, isn't this a mosque? Shouldn't people be praying? The person responds, no, if you want praying, go to one of our universities. The reporter then asks, Why do they pray at the universities? What about the academic work there? What about the intellectuals there? The person answers, if you want to see our intellectuals and professors, go to the the main prison in North of Tehran (it is called Evin Prison). The reporter then asks, what about the criminals? Where are they? The person answers: They're those damned Muslims running the country!
