TEHRAN, Iran – Iran has test launched a rocket it plans to use to carry a research satellite into orbit, state television reported Sunday.
Saturday’s test of the two-stage rocket, called the Safir-e Omid, or Ambassador of Peace, was successful, state TV said, broadcasting images of the nighttime launch.
And now for some definitions from The Sniper’s Farsi to English dictionary.
Rocket=Missile
Research satellite=nuclear payload
Orbit=Israel
Ambassador of Peace=I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.
This has been your language lesson for the day. Although it may not bring you enough comprehension to read Farsi as it is written in its normal script, it will arm you with the ability to read between the lines of their press releases.
