Oh Crap -- here is the making for something really awful again.
When will these "useful idiots" ever learn.
From the Louisville, Kentucky Courier-Journal:
Group headed to Iran to help spread message of peace, unityAnd in the understated "no shit" department are these two gems:
Seven from Louisville will make the journey
Gray Henry-Blakemore isn't sure what she will learn on a fact-finding and friendship mission to Iran this week. But she has a hunch:
"People all over the world basically lead normative moderate lives of service and devotion -- while putting dinner on the table and getting children to school," she said. "What a pity we end up fearing one another."
Henry-Blakemore and her husband, Neville Blakemore Jr., are among seven Louisville residents joining 18 others from across the country and Great Britain who paid $3,500 each to travel to Iran. It's being organized by the Fellowship of Reconciliation, an interfaith peace and justice organization that is part of an international group with affiliates in more than 40 countries.
For decades the Fellowship of Reconciliation has been sending delegations to nations considered "enemies" of the United States, said Ethan Vesely-Flad, editor of the organization's Fellowship magazine.
Noel Clay, a spokesman for the U.S. Department of State, would not comment on how the government feels about trips like the one planned by the Fellowship, but she noted that there is a travel warning for Americans venturing to Iran.The absolute selfish spiritual onanism of these people is beyond belief.
Henry-Blakemore said that while she is somewhat concerned that there is no American embassy in Iran, it isn't enough to stop her from going.
