US walks out on Ahmadinejad's UN speech

UNITED NATIONS – The U.S. delegation walked out of the U.N. speech of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday after he said some in the world have speculated that Americans were behind the Sept. 11 terror attacks, staged in an attempt to assure Israel's survival. He did not explain the logic of that statement that was made as he attacked the U.S. wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. Source: Yahoo.News

Delegates from the US walked out of the UN during a speech by the Iranian President, after he suggested 9/11 was the work of America to save Israel. Diplomacy doesn't appear to be on Ahmadinejad's agenda, does it? I'm not sure he even knows diplomatic speech and behavior exist. Anybody knows not to go into a foreign land and be so harsh with unsubstantiated claims and accusations. He's an asshole, but what do you expect from someone who denies the holocaust happened? Not surprising, really. Some would say he speaks the truth unfettered by the hand of the elite. Others that he is just pushing his luck! Either way this can’t lead to anything good, given the current climate, I am sure this will lead to further diplomatic wrangling and saber rattling. I feel this is just a further escalation in the charade that is global geo-politics.
