Mahmoud Amsterdinejad mewls and moans about his treatment in the court of American public opinion:
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Saturday blamed some circles within the United States of putting him in the same boat as the head of the terrorist network al-Qaeda Osama bin Laden.
…
Ahmadinejad also blamed the US government and New York City officials for rejecting his request to visit the site of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
“All I wanted to do was pay my respect and tribute at the site to the victims but this simple request was rejected,” he said.
…
Ahmadinejad compared the status of September 11 to the Holocaust, saying that both issues were used against the Islamic world.
You’ve got to hand it to Morey. He took a long, steaming leak all over everything America holds dear—from 9/11 victims to homosexuals—and still managed to make himself out as the victim of bad manners. At least Osama has the grace to kvetch about America from either a cave in Afghanistan or the studios of Wayne’s World.
I would have let Ahmadamsterdam visit Ground Zero, but I would have given him the perspective of a victim by pinning him under eight tons of granite.
The connection between 9/11 and the Islamic world hardly needs amplification, but if Morey needs to be reminded about Islam’s role in the Holocaust, Alan Dershowitz can tell him all about it.
