Peace in the Middle East!

Checking the stats of this web site, I found the following picture: the Israeli and Iranian flags happily next to each other. How often have you seen that?

And is there a better way to celebrate this new found peace than by showing some relevant pictures of berets? Well, both countries have a pretty poor beret-rating actually, unless you look at the over-representation of berets in their armies.
