Good news! Iran opens the first ice rink in three decades: http://globalnews.ca/video/1018434/r...-three-decades
Looks like they may be paying some much-needed attention to winter sports, even aim for a medal in Sochi 2014.

Only to see if the Saudi prince will indeed send Chechen terrorists to F up the event. And if so, i hope Putin will do what he promised to do.IRI's politics is no different than handling a pressure cooker ..... As the pressure builds up, you slowly let the steam out just a tad bit so that you don't see overflow, and once the pressure from below is less, you put the lid down again and raise the temperature.

In Iran only 3 Winter Sports exist (Alpine, Cross Country and Snowboard) among 15 Olympic Sports, and these few ones are in a prehistoric state in comparison of Western Countries and even East Asian ones.
Even if Iran has a lot of potential in Winter Sports, a lot of capacities but as long as no one cares about we will never have success in, if they start working for tomorrow we can aim for medals in 20/30 years.
You know Iran won his first medals in Asian Winter Games only in 2011, the only light at the moment is a young US-Iranian boy of 18 years which compete in Freestyle Skiing Moguls (doesn't exist in Iran) for Iran and has some chances to qualify in Sochi.

Why do you call it Olympics? Olympics is for sports that are played by all the countries of the world, ot at least most of them. Summer olympics deserved to be named Olympics as most countries of the world participate significantly.
Winter sports are 99% for white rich countries : south and central america + africa + most of asia + south or Europe aren't really concerned

Some pictures of Sochi from The National Geographic: http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/20...i-olympics.jpg - Looks like the 2014 Winter Olympic city has a dark history.
