Not unless they first obtain some nukes to help them enforce their particular notions of IP law.
It's not their IP law that Jimbo was referring to, but the enforcement of their standards of official decency. I can't say that I pay much attention to it when I send packages of romance books to a friend of mine in Teheran, but still I have to wonder about the foreign-ness of a culture where Mills&Boon/Harlequin type romances are on the blacklist.
