My Workplace Exchange Over Ahmadinejad US Visit



...........Some of you know I work in operations for a major carrier and have access to a lot of information when Dignitary's travel in the USA and how their travel will affect the air transportation here.

Anyhow this morning someone mentioned the TFR that is over NYC for the next few days and how they were glad that Ahmadinejad did not get the opportunity to visit Ground Zero WTC and the rambled on about what a nut case Ahmadinejad is that he is a sponsor of terrorist and should not be allowed to speak at the UN...Well!!!!...I just had to speak up and share some insight and truth....I asked him what country most of the 9/11 hijackers were from....he said A-ganstnd and then he said finally said Saudi Arabia....I then asked him if the same should go for them as well...Yes of course....I said..Well Saudi Arabia has spoke at the UN a few times times since 9/11 and since 15 of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia doesn't that make them a terrorist state as well and what has this administration done to punish Saudi Arabia and why was Prince Bander as a rep of the SA government allowed to place a wreath at the WTC site.....

Only the word..... WELL!!!! came out of his mouth.......I say hypocrisy was at its best today...

Speechless.

2. At least people have opinions where you work.
At my call center everyone's a fucking zoo reject and about as sharp as a bag of wet hair. :(

3. So Ahmadinejad is a bad guy, but saying so from a country

that has done what our country has done in Iraq is really the pot calling the kettle black. I think we need to not be such big hypocrites and insist that our government and media don't exercise that hypocrisy in our name.

Also, about the Saudis, all you said and why is Prince Bandar allowed to hold hands with our President after the WTC bombing of 9-11?
