The Iran Crisis Shows How Disingenuous Arab Countries Are Towards America

How stupid has the world become that a foreign country can kidnap citizens of another country and then accuse the other country of causing issues with the safety and consideration of the hostages. Let’s call it what it is in Iran, the British soldiers being held are kidnap victims, they are hostages. I cannot understand how a sovereign country can kidnap 15 citizens of another country and get away with it without and recourse. Furthermore, Iran changed their official story in regards to where the soldiers where kidnapped and still the world does nothing, this is ridiculous. All while Iran is kidnapping and threatening they are reaping the rewards of the higher oil prices caused by their actions, this is so diabolical and contrived it is almost genius. While America and her allies waste billion Iran is sitting their violating humanitarian rights while gaining support of Arab nations and profits based on oil prices jacked up because of Iran’s’ inhumane and illegal actions. What is going on here? Why also are all of the Arab nations now calling Americas’ military in Iraq occupiers? Has the whole world lost its mind or am I missing something?

In strong violation of the Geneva Convention for treatment of military the Iranian Arabic language network Al Alam on Friday aired video showing of the kidnapped 15 British soldiers apologizing to Iranians for entering their waters without permission. How absurd is this and also how inhumane is this? Where is the world justice? Is this what outsourcing and globalization has created? As we industrialize the world are we empowering these types of idiotic leaders? As we create business in the Middle East and Far east will we have to deal with Caveman mentality? Are your civil rights vulnerable today or tomorrow because of globalization and the empowerment of idiots like those running Iran?

One British kidnapped soldier is being aired stating, “I’d like to apologize for entering your waters without any permission. I know it happened back in 2004 and I know our government promised that it wouldn’t happen again. Again I do apologize for entering your waters.” This is ridiculous and unacceptable. EU foreign ministers on Friday demanded Iran release the 15 Britons but also reiterated that they will guard against escalating the situation and reiterated that their diplomatic ties with Tehran would not be immediately affected.

And then you have King Abdullah’s harsh — and unexpected — attack on the U.S. military presence in Iraq. King Abby basically stated that America has failed it’s obligation to Iraq and should quit occupying the country. Many say he was grandstanding in a cowardly pledge for credibility among fellow Arabs. King Abby stated, “In beloved Iraq, blood is flowing between brothers, in the shadow of an illegitimate foreign occupation, and abhorrent sectarianism threatens a civil war.” Let’s see how King Abdullah feels when America is called in to save Saudi Arabia’s ass when Iran decides to impose its Shiite will on the Sunni led country.

What we say America pulls back and takes car of the domestic United States for a few years and lets see how disrespectful and disingenuous these Arab leaders are then.
