Iran sez it doesn't sponsor terrorism
  • Iran rejected U.S. accusations it sponsored terrorist attacks on the West Bank, saying that Palestinian suicide bombers were resisting occupation by Israel.
    "That means they're not terrorists, no matter what terror they may instill in innocent civilians, see?"
    Iranian Foreign Minister Kharrazi Kamal told a news conference in the Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur that it was irrelevant to talk about anyone sponsoring such violence. "This is an incident in Palestine and they are committing suicide to resist occupation. Certainly, we have to see why Palestinians are committing suicide," Kharrazi said.
    Sure. It's because they're terrorists.
    "It's not a question of sponsor or not to sponsor," he said during the three-day meeting of Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC) countries, which is discussing causes of terrorism.
    They just spontaneously explode. Didja ever notice that there's only one place in the world where people spontaneously explode? At least on a regular basis. Even the Paks in Kashmir don't have it down quite right.
