just cause you were born in Iran doesn't mean that your family is really from there.
the cretinclass of special people find out where it is easiest to say you are from, and then they make their spy-kids seem to be from there.
It doesn't matter where they are really from. They might be from here. But it benefits them more to be from somewhere else. Apparently there must have been some special go-to-the-head-of-the-class programes reserved for Iranian expats, prob inserted in some budget long ago and working for a long time. And so a lot of people are 'from' there.
where are they really from?
they all seem to be spies, so who knows.
