Why can't I choose Iran as a country on the iGoogle weather gadget?

Iran is no longer in the list of countries available on the iGoogle weather gadget. I can still see the weather in another instance of the same gadget that i'd set up previously (under a different email address ) so the weather servers would seem to be working.
I can get the weather for Tehran by entering an address directly: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&client=ig&q=weather+Tehran,+Iran, then "add to iGoogle". Has Iran been removed from the country list as a misguided interpretation of US sanctions?

Answer
Embargo!

Why do some gadgets just not work in gmail that work in igoogle?

Josh

For example: I wanted to only use gmail rather than also using igoogle. So I tried to put the same weather gadget I used in igoogle in gmail. But it didn't work.

Is there any way to get past that, by changing the code in the gadget?

Answer
You can't drag any gadgets into gmail. If you want to view a weather gadget then install google desktop. Don't know about Mac, but Ubuntu and Windows Vista and 7 all have built in gadgets.
