#1 Not the revolution starting, more like Baluchis making mischief like their coethnics(?) on the other side of the border. Still, a sign of the troubles in keeping the lid on.

#5 You can't use a pencil on scorecards - it's not cricket.

#7 Obviously, one must question whether this happend at all.

I just got back from a year in Afghanistan and although the Afghan Army has some very tough fighters, they would never go into Iran.

More likely it is drug runners like the article said happend in the past. Some Iranian border guards actually try to stop the drug flow and lots have died. Others are just on the payroll.

#11 The RAB has a swell patch...but reworking the 'civil and well reasoned discourse' logo would work just fine. Certainly need something stronger than 'Remands R Us' :)~

#12 Surely the design needs a pair of fallen lips in it, too?

#13 Very astute, TW! We need some photo shopping guru to put it together! And a cup of tea and plate of cookies in the corner, would set the tone...knives, bombs, hangmans noose, to set the rest of the tone. :)
