The General Assembly of Interpol yesterday upheld its Executive Committee’s decision to publish Red Notices against five Iranians and one Lebanese wanted by the Argentine authorities in connection with the AMIA massacre. 76 countries voted in favour, 14 against and there were 26 abstentions.
The reaction of the Iranian Foreign Ministry was what we have come to expect from the Iranian regime. According to this report in La Nación its spokesman has condemned the decision, described it as unscrupulous and criticised Interpol for having given in to the “Zionist regime”.
It can’t be much of an intellectual challenge working for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Iran. I mean, whenever anything happens in the world that is unfavourable to your country’s interests you don’t have to work up a sweat thinking about what really happened and what ought to be done about it; all you have to do is blame the Jews.
