This is what Siggy calls "Living in a Salvador Dali Painting." In Iran today, its Holocaust denying president, Mahmud Ahmadinejad, kicked off something called the "Islamic World, a Victim of Terrorism" conference.
But first, let's revisit this 2004 comment made by Abdel Rahman al-Rashed, the general manager of Al-Arabiya news channel:
It is a certain fact that not all Muslims are terrorists, but it is equally certain, and exceptionally painful, that almost all terrorists are Muslims.
And yes, Muslims are victims of terror, but that terror almost always comes from a familiar source: fellow Muslims.
From the Tehran Times, the world's greatest newspaper:
Differences over terrorism have blocked efforts by the UN General Assembly to formulate a comprehensive definition of terrorism, Manuchehr Mohammadi (My note: Never heard of the guy) told the conference participants.
He called for a new definition of terrorism in which the use of force by certain countries (My note: That means Israel and the US), which is called state terrorism, would be considered terrorism, and liberation struggles (My note: That would mean Hezbollah and Hamas) would not be labeled as terrorism. He said, "Today, Iran is more sensitive toward terrorism than others and strongly condemns it because it has suffered from it more than others."
The West has divided terrorism into good and bad terrorism, he added.
Nuts, just nuts.
