10 Countries That Have No Room To Talk Trash
5. Iran
Iran has been in the habit of chanting “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” ever since the Islamic Revolution in 1979. The theocratic regime is especially loathing the “Zionist occupation of Palestine,” as the ongoing conflict between Israel and the Palestinian territories is known over there. Iran is also highly critical of the US foreign policy and Western democracy, often accusing “the Great Satan” of racism and harboring anti-Muslim sentiments.
The truth is, Iran is one of the most oppressive countries on earth and has absolutely no right to call the kettle black. The Iranian government’s horrible treatment of its ethnic and religious minorities, as well as its oppression of women, presents a very dark picture of the human rights situation in the country.
Iran is also a dangerous destabilizing force in the region. The ayatollahs sponsor terrorism and Shia violence in Iraq, Yemen, Syria, and Lebanon; they keep trying to obtain nuclear weapons, and they threaten to wipe Israel off the face of the earth.
