What sort of Kangaroo court are you running over there. Iran was not complicit in 9/11. The attacks were carried out by Al Qaeda, a sunni muslim organisation

I'm certian a rebellious country half a world away is going to be influenced by the rulings of a New York Judge. It will require a nuclear war to to enforce his decision.
