Nice to see that at least one country isn’t going to put up with the garbage Mahmoud pushes
Germany will walk out of the U.N. General Assembly if Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad denies the Holocaust in a speech he will give Wednesday, and it wants other European Union countries to do the same, the foreign ministry said.
“We will leave the hall if President Ahmadinejad denies the Holocaust or makes anti-Semitic statements … we are making efforts toward a unified European position,” a spokesman said Tuesday.
Ahmadinejad has, as recently as last week, called the Holocaust a lie, repeating his position just as world powers try to decide how to deal with Iran’s nuclear ambitions.
Good for them. Great if the other EU countries follow. Best if they and other countries simply walked out and refused to deal with Obama’s newest man crush before Mahmoud even started speaking, or right as he started speaking. Even better would be if we heard the same sort of pledge from the United States government, but, seeing as how quite a few on the left hate Israel, Obama has been dictating to the Israeli’s, has yet to meet with the Israeli PM, but has been pushing hard for conditionless conversations with Mahmoud, I doubt the US will do anything. Shame.
