Truly Dumb-ass Story of the Week: London 2012 Olympics Logo Spells...Zion?

This is one of those "LOL--whut?" sort of stories. I just recently came across this news item, and what the, I don't even....oh just look here:

Iran claims London 2012 Olympics logo spells the word 'Zion

'Almost four years after the logo's launch, Tehran threatens to boycott the Games unless the design is changed



Iran has threatened to boycott the London Olympics unless the organisers replace the official logo, which Tehran claims spells out the word "Zion".

The logo, a jagged representation of the year 2012, has been said by its critics to resemble many things, from a swastika to a sexual act, but the Iranian government argues it represents a veiled pro-Israeli conspiracy.

In a formal complaint to the International Olympic Committee, Tehran has called for the graphic to be replaced and its designers "confronted", warning that Iranian athletes might otherwise be ordered to stay away from the London Games.

Well, sure, because: Iran. But seriously--why would London go out of their way to promote Zionism in their Olympics Logo? Because, duh, if there was conspiracy afoot, you wouldn't want to broadcast it in code in a commercial logo. C'mon. You'd keep it on the downlow. But the real surprise is people who saw the logo as depicting a sex act--which I totally didn't see until reading that some people were interpreting it a depicting a sex act.

But now? I can't not see it. Thanks, dirty-minded people.

Anyway, if we're playing "logo-Rorschach", I see it as resembling one of those doodles of a sample band-logo that a tween paints  in White-out on the front of her binder, colored in with highlighter pen. Sort of like this:

So actually--um, no. The UK isn't secretly being run by the Elders of Zion or whatever. It is being run by 13-year old girls from the '80's. So there.
