Well, the Iranians are insisting that they do (and that the film is an obvious propaganda piece against their nation), and I suppose they ought to know. Come to think of it, an Iranian kid I went to school with insisted that he was 'Persian', so that fits. OTOH, the Iranians are also insisting that the film is an 'insult to Islam', which is a bit harder to figure...

Anyway, back to our regular discussions ;)
