Ahmadinejad Lies Like A (Persian) Rug To UN
Iranian president and whack-job-in-chief Stood up in front of the entire UN today and flat out lied his butt off to the assembly. Even the UN cannot possibly be this freaking stupid. The IAEA has reported that Iran is most definitely not cooperating with inspections.
Iran's nuclear activities are "transparent, peaceful and under the watchful eye" of United Nations inspectors, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday.
Taking the world stage at the U.N. General Assembly hours after President Bush, he also some permanent members of the Security Council _ an apparent reference to the United States _ of using the powerful body as a tool of "threat and coercion."
He reiterated his nation's commitment to the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty as it faces accusations that it is seeking to develop atomic weapons.
His speech was sharply critical of the United States and Britain, and focused in large part on what he said was their abuse of the Security Council, on which they are both permanent members with veto power.
"The question needs to be asked: if the governments of the United States or the United Kingdom, who are permanent members of the Security Council, commit aggression, occupation and violation of international law, which of the U.N. organs can take them into account," he said.
"If they have differences with a nation or state, they drag it to the Security Council and as claimants, arrogate to themselves simultaneously the roes of prosecutor, judge and executioner," he added said. "Is this a just order?"
This is such a bald-faced lie, it's stunning. He is literally urinating on the UN in their own hall and daring them to do anything about it.

I’ve seen worse lies spoken at the UN…say, by Bush leading up to the invasion of Iraq because of the “unmistakable weapons of mass destruction,” or the possibility of a “mushroom cloud.”
Or there was Colin Powell, who ruined his career by explaining to the Security Council the same lies about Iraq.
Careful of who you call a liar…the current US administration’s lies have cost tens of thousands of lives.

You seem to be making some point that the UN lied to the world when it issued 17 UN resolutions against Iraq.
Have you ever heard Ahmadinejad’s speeches made to his constituents?
By the way the lie you believe was the one made by Joe Wilson.
