OMG this is rich coming from Ahmadinejad – ain’t the one who opened fire on the protesters in Iran?

They do have a rich sense of humor in sticking it to Brits now. Both Ahmadinejad and Gaddafi. Two things come to mind to me right now. Enoch Powell, and the super-duper high moral standards of Gordon Brown. Powell is redeemed on all accounts, he proved a prophet. Brown proved what he looked like: miserable idiot. He can easily dismiss thousands of white girls forced into prostitution by Liberal Party voting base Moslems.
And for that Norse psychopath, why does his horrible crime classify as islamophobe?
George Soros is being sued for beating, choking, and defrauding his Brazilian ex-girlfriend…who is five decades his junior.
I am waiting to see how this story develops. I don’t claim to know whether these charges against George Soros are true, but whether they are or not, this lawsuit could scarcely have happened to a more deserving individual. He has committed far more evil deeds than what he is accused of here.

I agree, this is simply priceless. One of the world’s most hateful tyrants criticizing a historical beacon of freedom for its “savage crackdown” on rioters, looters and general malefactors. Go figure.
It’s almost as if the Mad Dwarf knows damn well that much of the ongoing violence in Britain stems from Muslim “youth” and their habitual criminality.
Needless to say (then why say it?), Ahmadinejad should pull the log out of his own … er, eye (yes, that was the word I was searching for!), before pointing towards the mote in another person’s ocular-like object.
