TEHRAN--In the vast deserts of eastern Iran, where life is tied to the harsh climate, a long-standing art still breathes; an art that not only creates shelter, but also narrates the history, identity, and sustainability of a culture. Siah-Chador weaving (weaving the black tents) by the nomads of South Khorasan province is on verge of a new development today; a development that can link this indigenous heritage from nomadic habitats to national and even global markets.

Toronto's 'bomb Iran' rally sparks shock, fear, and outrage​

TEHRAN - “I can't believe this is real,” wrote one Canadian citizen reacting to protests that took place in Toronto on Saturday.

Instead, it was a gathering organized by Iranian-born individuals, or second-generation Iranian immigrants, who held placards and chanted slogans calling for U.S. President Donald Trump to bomb their home country and make it "free" and “prosperous.”
