Iran condemns Boston bombing but criticizes US

Share:

ayatollah Ali KhameneiIran’s top leader on Wednesday condemned the twin bombing attacks in Boston, yet chided the U.S. for employing a double standard when it comes to drone attacks that kill innocent civilians.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran, which follows the logic of Islam, is opposed to any bombings and killings of innocent people no matter if it is in Boston, Pakistan, Afghanistan, Iraq or Syria and condemns it,” Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Iranian military leaders he was addressing in Tehran.

Khamenei criticized the U.S. for killing people with drones in Pakistan and Afghanistan and backing forces that kill others in Iraq and Syria.

“What kind of logic is this that if children and women are killed by Americans in Afghanistan and Pakistan and by U.S.-backed terrorists in Iraq and Syria is not a problem, but if a bombing happens in the U.S. or another Western country, the whole world should pay the cost?” he asked in his comments, which were posted on his website.

Iran is the chief regional ally of Syrian President Bashar Assad and is considered close to Iraq’s Shiite Muslim-dominated government.

Khamenei charged that such double standards would lead to the demise of Western civilization.

“Western civilization is on the verge of collapse and downfall because of contradictions, lack of logic, coercions and lack of care for human principles,” he said.

    Is there really any comparison? Situation? Type of weapon? Basic target? Sorry Supremeness … and who is bombing bread-lines in Syria lately? If you’re going to mention a couple, might as well get them ALL in.

    1. So what are you saying that the syrian government fired rockets into one of its universities lately? or beheaded a sheikh dragged his body then cut off his head and stuck it on a mineret at the mosque? is it justified to fire a rocket from a drone to kill a supposed suspect and take out a few innocents women and children along the way? As yourself what sort of weapons are groups like al nusra using? kalashnikovs or ak47’s?
      or killing scientists of another country just because you can?

          thanks to the corrupt leaders of irAngel that had completely ruined the country leb exists.. once irAngel is hit by an youthquake and a desirable (in ALL iraniAngel’s opinion) regime change is accomplished, leb would be South Pole – Aitken Basin time 100000…

            Honestly, are you all there!? How could Lebanon be 100000 times the Basin when you can fit 100000 x Lebanon in the Basin!!!! Even if I look at it from your other retarded angle and you want Lebanon to be the epicentre of that 100000 crater, wouldn’t that engulf at least north western iran, if not all of iran? I think I might agree with you and hope for the best!

        Also move all the wildlife to Lebanon, they have more natural sense than 60% of the Lebanese and nearly all of them have more brains than our leaders!

        Hopefully, most of the people are not as stupid as their ‘fuzzy-faced’ leadership, and have the three choices — leave, change the leadership OR knuckle under and wallow in their current way of life. I would REALLY like to think they’re not ALL stupid.

        Exactly, thanks to iran and syria. Lebanon would rather be a crater than its current situation! Regardless though, whether you like it or not, Lebanon is the most beautiful country in the world and that wasteland you call iran will need more than God’s help to transform it to the beauty of the roots of the mighty Lebanese cedars.

          listen sweety.. as i told you in the other thread the tiny piece of shit you call lebanon, wouldnt exist without the wasteland we call irAngel. Please dont talk up lebanon and try to convince us that leb actually is something! hahaha.. listen buddy… IrAngel is with no competitor the most beautilful country in the world… in fact Iran IS the world!!!! there is a reason why a brit once said: ESFEHAN IS HALF THE WORLD!!! Later the following was added: the other half is tabriz so in reality irAngel is the whole world and MORE, because only TWO place were mentioned! the world would be a really sad place without the iraniAngel beauty, culture, music and scientific contributions just to name a few

            An advice for the people saying that Lebanon or Iran are the best countries in the world, GO see the world! Lebanon will always be my home, and it is a nice country and i’m sure Iran is too(although i’ve never been there) but to say they are the best countries is really laughable.

            irAngel IS the best country in the world with the NASTIEST people inhabitting it.. thats why irAngel is so fucked… i witness it every single day with my own eyes.. iraniAngels constantly complain about the conditions in the country and yet they do nothing to solve the problems.. i will give you an example.. every midnight garbage men in tehrAngel start cleaning the city, water all trees, wash all streets with water and detergent until 5 am, so that every morning when people wake up everywhere is just beautiful. believe me it takes no longer than until noon then everywhere is a mess!!! every citizens has a responsiblity, right?

            ?? Detergent ?? Lemon or Phosphates ??? :-O …. (Nuclear waste soon … 😉

            Paris France washes streets from an 1809 water system, (a 2nd system for ‘drinkable’ water was built in 1857), and doesn’t use detergents … the street floods in the morning, sweepers push the dog-shit into the street grates and everything goes to the Seine. 🙂
            After 1982, people are supposed to pick up their dog’s shit … but where does it go from there??? :-O :-)))))

            We will not mention Lebanon here … of course.

            2il2ird b3ayn 2immo ghazeel. Without our alphabet you would have non of the above you idiot. In regards to the geography, a bit of greenery in the north and a bit along the arabian gulf lies a bit of glamorous sand with some dirty and unwashed beings! Lebanon might be tiny, but it puts that piece of $#it land you call ayran in its back pocket.
            You can mould 5ara into billion shapes, at the end, its still 5ara! Same with that hole ayran.

            if this had been a phone call i had hung up on you by now! as for the 5ara i am glad we send as much as possible your way in form of hizb to ruin your so called country! lebanon is better off with you ‘loving’ it from a distance! just be careful they dont kick u back to your country! i hear that everywhere around the world the lebanese are being deported! i guess the reasons are that you are uneducated (eventhough education is free in most countries you flee to), garlic smelling, lizard eating people, who live in ghettos, sponge off the european welfare, all of you are thugs, drug dealers and you completely terrorize your host countries! i have seen how lebanese are in europe and you cant convince me about your ‘greatness’. lets assume for a moment that the lebanese are superior to the iraniangels, but at least we the iraniangels didnt kill one another in 15 years of civil war despite the iraniangel diversity! we are better than you, just ask your national sucker team… oops i meant soccer team… we crushed you last time: 5-0!! that much for your ‘greatness’! Here is a thing: iran ma fi metla in terms og greatness! what do you know about greatness anyway? you are just a pretty face! (or are you in fact ugly?) lets make a deal to refrain from replying to each other from now on because your garlic smell is overwhelming! good day!

            i wanna apologize to the lebanese people because i insulted them, but when this thing is acting like this i have to get back at it! it is probably not a lebanese but an iraniangel pahlavi-supporter trying to play the lebanese off with the iraniangel regime, which is extremely popular in your wonderful country, waaaay more popular than in irangel itself… on second thought.. this thing isnt honorable enough to be an iraniangel. a grain of the ‘glamorous’ sand in the iranian dessert between the bit of greenery in the north and a bit along the ‘assbian’ gulf is more worth than this thing.

            That is the longest hang up that I have ever seen.

            How are we in Europe, US, Australia you ask, yes we do have scum bags, no one is denying that, but we also have great people who have assimilated and worked harder than anyone else unlike your countrymen who think that spitting on the street is entertainment, bunch of freaking blockheads! Do you also know why we create headlines, because are free thinkers, we take charge and we are not programmed to take orders like the filthy ayranis!

            Wow, you beat us in a soccer match, hehehehehe, yet you get outed in the first round of every major event! Winning a soccer match does not make you great. israel never won a major soccer event, but is a great country. Lebanese have influenced the world with their food, culture and history. For crying out loud, even the continent of Europe is named after a Lebanese Princess!
            On the other hand, look just stick to your soccer matches, maybe it is the only thing that shows the greatness of ayran.

    After the beginning of Taliban Fighting Season in Afganistan: Time Magazine Article

    “There were funerals everywhere — so there is no hope left in the city,” says Naser Royan, a Farah resident in his late 20s. “The day after the explosion, I asked a shopkeeper friend why he wouldn’t open his shop again. His words kept me awake till 3 a.m. that night. He said ‘What good is life if you share memories with a person one day, and the next day his flesh is smeared on your goods.’”
