EU and UK sanction Iran for selling drones to Russia — while they simultaneously ignore American terrorism — which even blew up part of Germany's former energy supply

The logic of terminally belligerent airheads

 

The West — drowning itself in a mix of ineradicable stupidity and molasses-vat hypocrisy — did this:

 

 

The European Union and the United Kingdom Thursday sanctioned three Iranian military commanders and a defense company over allegedly supplying drones to Russia.

 

The decisions introduce travel bans and asset freezes on Major-General Mohammad Hossein Bagheri, chief of staff of Iran’s armed forces, General Seyed Hojjatollah Qureishi, a senior defense official, and Brigadier-General Saeed Aghajani, the head of “UAV command” (unmanned aerial vehicle) in the Revolutionary Guards Aerospace Force.

 

The sanctioned company Shahed Aviation Industries makes Shahed-136 drones.

 

An EU statement said Bagheri supervised Iran’s drone program, played a “fundamental role in Iran’s defence cooperation” with Russia, including supplying Mohajer-6 drones “for their use in the war of aggression against Ukraine.”

 

Qureishi, the statement said, headed logistics at the Ministry of Defense and had negotiated with Russia over drone supply, while Aghajani headed “the backbone” of Iran’s drone program.

 

A statement from British foreign secretary James Cleverly said the UK was acting against “those who have supplied the drones used by Russia to target Ukrainian civilians and that there was “clear evidence of Iran’s destabilising role in global security.”

The fact that NATO literally started the Ukraine War . . .

 

. . . and keeps it going — via its unconstrained expansion, even unto weaponizing Ukraine against Russia — measures the abyssal depths of Western hypocrisy.

 

 

Similarly

 

The fact that American HIMARS and artillery are regularly being used to blast Russian-heritage civilians in the Donbas, adds to this impressive display of the West-sponsored Devil's work.

 

'Look who's talking' becomes a reasonable rejoinder, when the West chides Russia and Iran for their actions.

 

And let's not forget who blew up the Nord Stream pipelines, much to Germany's existential harm. See here and here.

 

Obviously, the UK and EU are just as demented as the United States' dementia-burdened Deep State-controlled puppet president.

 

 

The moral? — By their words and their conflicting actions . . .

 

. . . shall ye know their crooked tongues and lightless hearts.

 

The West has so little that is civilizationally meritorious left — that, when it vanishes from its currently fading super-hegemonic influence — sane populations will be relieved.
