The pro-Syrian newspaper Ad-Diyar is reporting (on the first page no less) that a Syrian (state) company is producing jointly with an Iranian (state) company a new luxury car. The new car will subject the driver to an unending stream of Ba`thist speeches along with Shi`ite religious sermons. When the driver exceeds the speed limit, he/she will be subjected to merciless torture from a mechanical hand installed above the head of the driver. The car will come equipped with irremovable pictures of Iranian and Syrian leaders. Buyers will pay extra for CDs of Ba`thist propaganda. The car is not equipped to run on the territory of the Golan heights.
