Irony-Packed

From The WSJ, a little laugh:
The Saudi embassy in Washington issued a brief statement condemning the alleged plot as "a despicable violation of international norms, standards and conventions." Saudi officials believe the plot targeted the ambassador, Adel A. Al-Jubeir, because of his close ties to the king and his influential role in shaping Saudi policy.
Does not apply to the international norms, standards & conventions of democracy, women voting, women being allowed to drive, freedom of & from religion (OK, may be pushing "international norms, standards and conventions" a little w/ religious freedom.) & so on.

Shouldn't the United Snakes have invaded Saudi Arabia post-11 September 2011 to punish them for providing the majority of the 11 Sept. attackers, free the Saudi people from their tyrannical rulers, & get our oil back?

Oh, never mind.

"What the hell?" is, I think, the appropriate response to this story so far. It's too nutty to take in, let alone believe.

Crikey, you rotter, don't make us read the whole thing!

Another excuse/reason for a nuclear attack on Iran, we suppose, possibly instigated by U.S. law enforcement.

Those apocalyptic Iranians are pretty damn nutty though.

You must be careful when packing irony so that the first layers do not get damaged during shipment.
