Iran Frees 11 ‘Students’ Held for Attack on British Embassy
1st December 2011
I find it curious that the government of Iran spends so much effort on the charade that these students aren’t doing what the government of Iran wants done. Certainly nobody in the ‘developing world’ buys that story.
There may be some dimwitted people in the West — in fact, there almost certainly are a great number of such people — who are fooled by this pretense, but none of them are of any importance.
“How long must we endure the presence of the British in Iran … when they interfere in affairs that relate to the country’s national interests … and commit treachery against the Iranian people?” Larijani asked, as he denounced Britain’s “excessive” reaction.
I’m curious as to what relationship this Larijani fellow thinks exists between the British and the ‘Iranian people’ that would make the term ‘treachery’ anything other than a random mouth-fart.
Is puzzle.
