Given the BP mess all over the News, and about 70,000 Iranian Americans living and working around DC area, I figured you find this clip interesting.
As an Iranian American myself, even I didn’t know BP used to be called Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. Frankly, not sure it’s a good thing these days 
Did you?
