On April 17th 2012, Iran held it's Military Day parade which it showcased different vehicles and equipment. What is peculiar about this is that the
UN was present during the parade. Now according to
UN Peacekeeping mission site and
wikipedia, there are no ongoing peace keeping missions in Iran
involving the UN.
So question being, what are they doing there?
" There is a data analysis discipline used in business settings and other operational applications that classifies inconsistencies, discrepancies and
departures from the operational or situational ideal. Examples of such inconsistencies are things such as undated reports, event descriptions which
alter the sequence of events and reports that distort the importance of one thing relative to others in its context. One of the harder ones to spot is
the omitted datum – information that ought to be there that isn’t. This classification has a corollary: the incorrectly included datum,
information that shouldn’t be there, but nonetheless is."
