Like a Latter Day Wannsee Conference

Whassup with that "international" "anti-terrorism" blab-fest in Iran? Well, first off, as the remarks of the Grand Ayatollah show, the point of the thing is to refine/redifine the notion of "terrorism" such that those who attack the Great and Little Satans aren't "terrorists" since they're getting rid of "hegemonic" Americans and Zionists and instituting "justice" (i.e. sharia).  Second, it's an "in your face, kafir" demonstration of how the UN is morally bankrupt and in the hands of the bad guys:

TEHRAN – High-ranking officials from 60 countries, including the main victims of terrorism, gathered in Tehran to attend the International Conference on Global Fight against Terrorism, which opened at the Summit Conference Hall yesterday and closes today.

Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari, Afghan President Hamid Karzai, Iraqi President Jalal Talebani Tajik President Emomali Rahmon, and Sudanese President Omar Hassan al-Bashir attended the first day of the conference.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad delivered a speech at the conference, in which he proposed that a secretariat should be established in an effort to coordinate counter-terrorism activities.

He said that the secretariat would make efforts to offer a single definition of terrorism, explore it roots, propose practical ways to campaign against terrorism, mobilize global support for counter-terrorism campaign, and reform colonialist and discriminatory mechanisms prevailing in the world so they incline toward justice.

Ban thanks Iran for hosting counter-terror conference

In addition, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon sent a message to the conference, which was read out by UN representative Muhammad Rafiuddin Shah.

In his message, Ban thanked the Islamic Republic of Iran for organizing the conference and said that all countries in the world shoulder a responsibility for campaigning against terrorism.

He also expressed hope that the conference would achieve its objectives...

Mission accomplished.

Update: G'head, guess which little Ayatollah-ridden land has been elected vice-president of the next session of the UN General Assembly.
