Meet Iran's female ninja assassins
Meet Iran's female ninja assassins: 3,000 women training to defend the Muslim state

Ha! Those are not ninja...no levitating, no walking through walls, or across tree tops. And someone spent a little time raking those leaves into a nice pile.
And ninja does not literally mean the art of being invisible.
Anyone here remember ninja popularity of the 1980's in the US? And just exactly how many proficient ninja did that produce?
I'm with cat in the hat. South Korea takes all in that match up.
