I'm kind of enjoying this whole America As Not Great Satan thing.  Any way we could blame the Brits for Honduras, too?

Perhaps not blame the British, but blame the Italians for giving birth to the new President of Honduras, which, by the way, violates that country's constitution.

Classic.

But, no, it's gotta be the Brits.  Have to keep it consistent, so that attention is gradually trained to look at one country first.

And, anyway, nobody would believe it if you told them the Italians were behind it. ;)

No, but fortunately the diversion tactic worked and you didn't notice how we were actually responsible for Brazil's victory.

I refuse to believe that.  It was executed far too competently to have been designed by y'all.

I dont believe you fell for the understated incompetence ploy.

Please, be our guests. ;-)

One thing I am wondering...

What's the level of desperation in this ploy? If things are going to get worse (for the government) will their propaganda outlets start ramping up the aggro on Americans? Or has it already got passed that? Is the Iranian "hatered" of America a bit to, well, nouveau? Is hatred of the British Empire all that will save them?

Well, I dunno.  What are they going to say to us?  "Tell the President to stop posting videos on YouTube that make our kids think he's not a total asshat"?

Plus, as I understand it, the ayatollahs are pretty paranoid about the Brits.  It's sort of like Cuban exiles with Castro.  If a car breaks down in Little Havana, it is undoubtedly -- somehow -- the work of Castro.

So they're both the easier and more natural target.
