This Car Is A Sham


The first model of the "Sham" car, designed in Iran and built in Syria, has vroomed out of its Damascus factory.


The picture above shows the President of Syria, Bashar al Assad driving this lovely car. I wonder how many of these will show up in Beirut.

Next step? A Homsi made "Saeba" car, which will also be designed in Iran. Now that one, I can assure you, will not be driven in Lebanon.
