Kennedy 0 #1 June 9, 2010 Maybe Iran should clean up it's own act before talking about escorting ships to (through) the Israeli blockade. NY Times Article Then again, since smuggling weapons, ignoring UN sanctions, and generally feeling that the rule of law can go perform some NSFW acts on itself, maybe jumping in bed with IHH to support Hamas is right up their alley. I mean afterall, since when does Iran care about cleaning up its act? Some general news on Iranwitty subliminal message Guard your honor, let your reputation fall where it will, and outlast the bastards. 1* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy9o8 2 #2 June 9, 2010 I agree; but having said that, just about all nations are hypocrites. I find a lot about which to condemn Iran; but wasting breath on "hypocrisy" just dilutes the rest of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well, to be fair, that could describe Israel as well. They've ignored dozens of UN sanctions. If countries had to 'clean up their own acts' before doing anything then no one (including the USA) could do anything, ever. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At times, that seems like an good idea.Most of the things worth doing in the world had been declared impossilbe before they were done.

The US generally vetoes any sanctions against Israel. But resolutions, passed by the mob of Arab nations, not so much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
