I wonder if they'd have any sense of irony. My guess is not. They don't seem to be big on putting yourself in the other fellow's shoes. It's OK when they do it because that's advancing Allah's cause but for anyone else, especially Jews...well, I'd like to see it.

Not that the UN would condone that, of course...they're probably on Iran's side anyway.
