Irony in Action

I just read this.

Hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has banned Western music from Iran's radio and TV stations, reviving one of the harshest cultural decrees from the early days of 1979 Islamic Revolution.

Wait, there's more...

But the official IRAN Persian daily reported Monday that Ahmadinejad, as head of Iran's Supreme Cultural Revolutionary Council, ordered the enactment of an October ruling by the council to ban Western music.

"Blocking indecent and Western music from the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting is required," according to a statement on the council's official Web site.

Wait for it...

The council has also issued a ban on foreign movies that promote "arrogant powers," an apparent reference to the United States.

'Cause you definitely don't want "arrogant powers" in your country -- you know, like banning music.
