Why should Mahmoud Ahmadinejad be labeled as a perfidious hypocrite?

he's only doing the photo-op two-step just like george bush and tony blair... the difference is, he did it with a positive, non-lethal outcome...

The 15 British hostages in Iran were released more quickly than was feared. They were the pawns of higher powers -- and of a president who staged their release as a perfidious performance. Nevertheless, progress in the Middle East is now at least a possibility.

It was an act of humanism in the spirit of Islam that prompted the Iranian president to grant the British hostages their freedom. Blame for the incident could be assigned to the British government, which he said had "behaved badly."

It's that easy, said Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

One has to pay close attention to what he says. It's well worth the effort because it reveals such rare depths of hypocrisy.

aw, c'mon... this axis of evil crap is so goddam old and so is the term "hostages..." give it a rest... and from a german publication, no less...
