I love this. God Bless him.
The Iranian foreign minister said the U.S. troop presence in Iraq had touched off an endless cycle of violence.
“The terrorist group in Iraq says, because of the continuation of
the occupation of this country, we are fighting,” he said. “The
American says, because of terrorist groups, we continue our staying in
Iraq.”
Iraqi Ambassador Siamand Banaa rose to contradict him, and said that Iran itself had benefited from the war in Iraq.
“It would strengthen your case and give it much more depth if you
tried to avoid cynicism and hypocrisy,” Banaa said. “The removal of the
worst enemy of the Iraqi people and the Iranian people, Saddam Hussein,
who caused the death and destruction of hundreds of thousands and
almost the bankruptcy of your country, has been, I think, a great
advance for you.”
I hope we will stay long enough to help these people and failing that, I hope we at least protect Kurdistan.
