CBC Documentary on Homosexuality in Iran...
In case you haven't heard, the President Ahmadinejad of Iran said, "In Iran we don't have homosexuals like in your country. We don't have that in our country. In Iran we do not have this phenomenon. I don't know who has told you that we have it."
Here's some footage documenting the Homosexual Scene in Iran and the brutal treatment its members receive:

Best Political Music Video Ever?
Check it out here. It's called "Empty Walls", and is by Serj Tankian of System of a Down (he's doing a solo thing). It reenacts 9-11 and the Iraq War with kids using toy weapons. It's very powerful. And the song, is really good, as well.

In Soviet Russia...
"Jewish Autonomous Oblast is a federal subject of Russia (autonomous oblast) situated in the Far Eastern federal district, bordering Khabarovsk Krai and Amur Oblast of Russia and Heilongjiang province of China. The region was created in 1934 as the Jewish National District. It was the result of Joseph Stalin's nationality policy, which allowed for the Jewish population of Russia to receive a territory in which to pursue Yiddish cultural heritage within a socialist framework."
(from Wikipedia)
This was an attempt to counter Zionism in Palestine and secularize the Jews within the U.S.S.R. Thousands of Jews throughout the world emigrated there. Sadly, it was a victim of Stalin's purges After 1991, most of the Jews living there left for Israel. For more info on its sad history, read the Wikipedia page on it.

Looking for new music? Check these guys out...
Slug's Revenge
myspace
One-man folk/punk with a strong bluegrass influence. Unlike most of the shitty acts infesting this genre, this guy can fucking play. Check out "The Jail Song" and "Notes on Military Recruitment". Originally from South Carolina, now residing in Baltimore.
Bodies of Water
myspace
This is what a friend wrote about them on a message board: "I don't know that Bodies of Water is all that original. You can here their influences here pretty clearly (Danielson, Pink Floyd, Arcade Fire, Os Mutantes, Polyphonic Spree), but they somehow manage to completely transcend their influences, sounding more honest and alive than the latter two, braiding gospel harmonies with proggy freakouts and pop purity. They remind me of Danielson in their total disregard for the whole "Christian indie rock/Christians in indie rock" paradigm. Their self-released s/t debut is probably one of the top 5 albums of the year for me (Someone sign these dudes!). Wonderfully life-affirming."
Vorkuta (fka Fjord)
myspace
Hungarian black metal band that said they formed because they wanted to "...[overcome] the many shitty acts that infected the scene today". And in my opinion, they accomplished what they set out to do. Named after a village in Siberia, "close to where a communist lager was located. It is said that during WW II, more people died there than in all the death camps, much more than Auschwitz/Birkenau. Our choice does not have any political meaning," - from an interview in a recent Metal Maniacs. In that interview, when asked about Christianity, they said, "I believe churches cannot be perfect, as they were all established by human beings. Like Nietzsche once wrote, 'there are no eternal facts, as there are no absolute truths, only interpretations.'" Regarding their lyrics, they "...mainly depict dark things. They're about the agony of souls, about our inner fears, which are usually expressed allegorically. Besides all of these, nature especially our homeland Gocsej, is also highly inspiring...". They have a number of splits out and a full-length on Paragon Records.
