Dear Iran (@khamenei_ir): @theonion is not a reliable source for US opinion. See Gallup: gallup.com/poll/116236/ir… twitter.com/IsraelinUSA/st…

The embassy of Israel in the USA took Iran to the woodshed over their epic fail. They reported The Onion as fact, believing a satirical article that claimed a Gallup poll showed that rural whites in America prefer Ahmadinejad over Obama.
And they changed the dateline to Tehran! RT: @israelinusa Dear Iran: @theonion not a reliable source for US opinion twitter.com/IsraelinUSA/st…
