Iran Seeking Compensation from the U.S.

I should create a comedy category for stories like this:

Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki said, “Legal department of the foreign ministry is trying to find a mechanism to receive compensation from the US government.” In a meeting with the families of Iranian kidnapped diplomats in Erbil, Iraq, in presence of foreign and domestic reporters, Mottaki said all spiritual and material damage caused by the attack of the US forces to Iran’s general consulate in Erbil are being considered.

Now if they hold that request until the Democrats claim another branch of our government (and that’s entirely possible given what passes for a Republican politician these days) they might actually see a check.
