You just can't make this stuff up, folks.
To start the thread:
IRAN: SADDAM'S EXECUTION SHOWS TRUE NATURE OF U.S. SAYS AHMADINEJAD
Tehran, 2 Jan. (AKI) – The execution on Saturday of ousted Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein shows the true nature of the United States, said Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Tuesday. "The execution of Saddam has proven that trusting the United States is not convenient," said the president, referring to the Iran-Iraq war in 1980-88 during which, he alleged, Washington encouraged Saddam in going to war with Tehran but then ousted him from power in 2003 "when he wasn't useful anymore."
"Countries in the region should learn the lesson and, like Iran, should only trust the will of their people and not corrupt powers," Ahmadinejad added.
On to the comments
- No one but idiots & morans would disagree with him on this. Trust the US and sooner or later you'll get fucked. It's The American Way.
- Sad but True. The U.S. is viewed by other Countries as a violent Country. I have heard this myself. Can't argue with that.
- Sad but very true n/t
- Damn, I hate it when I find myself agreeing with religious nut cases about anything.
- He might be a theocratic mad man, but this makes a lot of sense. the whole thing was pathetic. Even one of the Canadian papers I saw (perhaps owned by right-wing tool Conrad Black?) had an obituary headline that read "Sadaam Hussein, Despot 1937-2006" They might as well have said "martyr" in place of "despot"
- He is right USA should not trusted due to the working nature of its political system – lack of consistency.
- even crazy people are right once in a while.
- You know its bad When a nutjob like this has a valid point.
Um, yeah, like, Ok. Welcome to Liberal World.
