WTF!  One of our enemies.
The United Nations on Tuesday lowered the organization's flag outside its New York headquarters as a sign of respect for Ebrahim Raisi, the deceased Iranian president, sparking criticism from some on social media.Raisi, who had been widely touted as a potential successor to Ali Khamenei as Iran's supreme leader, died in a helicopter crash on Sunday along with the Iranian foreign minister and other officials.Iranian opposition activists dubbed Raisi the "Butcher of Tehran" because of his presence on a four-man committee that, in 1988, allegedly ordered the execution of thousands of political opponents. Amnesty International said the Iranian regime is believed to have killed between 4,500 and 5,000 prisoners between August 1988 and February 1989.Yaari Cohen, an employee of the Political Director's Office at the Israeli Foreign Ministry, posted a video on X of the U.N.'s flag being lowered to half-mast outside the body's headquarters in New York. The post, which has received more than 55,000 views, was then widely reposted. As the footage racked up millions of views across the platform, many users weighed in on the U.N.'s decision to lower its flag.

It's all theater.

Politicians glad-handing each other is sickening.
Like the Oscars. Movie makers telling each other how great they are.

I don't give a **** at all about either club.

That'll change once they figure out the Jews had their hands in his demise...
