In fairness to them, this isn't really hypocritical since Iran only officially supports non-state terrorism. Still, Tehran's condemnation seems to lack something in the way of introspection, no?

Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Mohammad Ali Hosseini expressed Iran's "strong condemnation" of the killing. "This action is a clear result and example of organized state terrorism by the Zionist regime," he said, according to the state news agency IRNA. He called on the world to "prevent the Zionist regime from taking these actions that are a clear violation of international law." Hosseini praised Mugniyah, 45, who was believed to have masterminded a string of attacks in the 1980s and 1990s that killed hundreds of Americans and targeted US, Israeli and Jewish interests in Lebanon and elsewhere. He was also on an FBI wanted list with a $25 million bounty on his head, equal to that the US has put for al-Qaeda leader Osama bin-Laden. Hosseini called Mugniyah "a golden page in the history of mankind's fight against the aggressive and occupying Zionists."

Iran's position appears to be that terrorism is good when it kills hundreds of people but bad when it's aimed at terrorists who are good because they kill hundreds of people. Or something. With sophisticated nuance like that, they could probably score a CFR fellowship or a WaPo editorial or something. And we'd have a punchline about that, except it's probably true.

PS - do you think they'll let Israel use the $25 million to pay off some of their US debt?
