Euros walk out on Iranian Missile Parade
IHT EFLEU diplomats on Thursday walked away from a march in Tehran when ballistic missiles with anti-American and Israeli banners rolled past, Agence France-Presse reported. The event was held to mark the anniversary of the beginning of Iran's war with Iraq in 1980. Diplomats from the embassies of France, Italy, Greece and Poland walked out of the parade when banners carrying slogans "Death to America," "We will crush America with our feet" and "Israel must be whipped off the face of earth" appeared. One diplomat said that they had decided before the parade that they would leave if any of their allies were attacked. Posted by: Mrs. Davis 2005-09-23 |
