This summer, I'll be heading to Iran for about 3 weeks. I'd like to be prepared before I go so I get the best out of the trip; any suggestions? Anything I should look into/ask? I'll be sure to tell you all how biased their TV's are. Apparently, they're blaming America for everything Saddam has done, and said that we killed Saddam to cover it up. Bunch of crap.
Are you Persian?
50% Iranian. I think the Native American stands out more in me than anything else.
Becareful.
Sounds like a good opportunity. Good luck in there...
We didn't kill Saddam, did we? We captured him, but I thought we let him have trial in another country. Hanging is only legal in, what, two states in the US?

Iraq tried and executed Saddam.
Learn a little bit of...arabic?. Speaking even just a few phrases will probably help you. Make sure to look into cultural differences (like what to wear, eat, not say/ask)

I don't know how to spell it, but it's like Farsi or something. I do know a few words from when my grandma came over, I'll just have to learn more from the environment when I get there.
Just make sure you don't become a hostage while you're there. Dumb radical islamists.
Iran is actually very westernized and welcoming of Americans and American culture. Within reason, obviously.
