IRANIAN EXILES ARE vandalizing Iranian consulates. What? Iranians violate diplomatic sanctity?
Of course, I guess it’s not really a violation of diplomatic immunity when it’s your own consulate. . . .
(Via Zach Barbera — who is also deeply, and I think rightly, suspicious of the French for choosing this particular moment to crack down on Iranian exiles they’ve tolerated for 20 years. I don’t think this particular group is especially savory, but as Barbera points out, France didn’t mind them before, and doesn’t mind Hamas now. And didn’t mind sheltering Khomeini, back in the day. Why, it’s almost as if they’re waging a proxy war to undermine Anglo-Saxon influence in the mideast. . . .)
