well I read it as "Why are Iranians always touching themselves." so it wasnt just the torch I misread.

I, for one, was not aware of it and thank Slowww for posting the article.

Give man Fire, keep him warm for a day. Set Man on fire, keep him warm for rest of life.

Damm, I've been shocked at the responses of some around here. Off-color comments about Russian sailors drowning in a submarine got people banned, but with multiple self-immolations it's chuckle time.

I don't care what their political stripes are, when numbers of people take their life in such a horrific manner purely to make a political statement it's alarming.

Oh brother, will someone loan these boys a sense of humor?

Russian sailors didn't exactly choose to drown themselves. People setting fire to themselves on the other hand...

As the old saying goes, self inflicted = no pity.
