World: So much for avoiding a diplomatic crisis with the UK, Iran

  • They’re going to try those British embassy staffers. WTF? Ayatollah Ahmad Jannati (who, for a frame of reference, is this guy) announced the news today during prayer services. “And then some people in the UK embassy,” he said, “who had a hand in the disturbances, were arrested and will surely be put on trial.” The UK is pissed; the European Union plans to show solidarity in getting Iran to let go of those diplomats. And everyone else in the world is trying to tell Iran that they can’t shift the blame this time. source
