Reason for Dismantling the U.N. Number #4,592...

Yesterday, in a 30-minute speech to the U.N. General Assembly in New York City, Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad demonstrated the full meaning of the word "irony." Not to mention "hypocrisy."

During his speech, Ahmadinejad called the Islamic Republic of Iran "a symbol of true democracy." Interesting. I didn't know that in a true democracy, you get suppressed free speech and gross gender inequality as well as a less-than-sparkling human rights violations record.

My personal favorite morsel from his tirade: "Today, more than ever, nations need constructive, positive, and honest cooperation and interaction in order to enjoy a dignified, tranquil and peaceful life based on justice and spirituality."

THIS from the man who has publicly called for Israel to be "wiped off the map," declared the Holocaust "a myth," and remarked that, perhaps one day, we will enjoy a world "without the United States."

Well, he's got the HONEST interaction part down, I guess.
