No. If my country executed homosexuals, I wouldn't recognize it as a crime against humanity. My country haven't recognized Hezbollah as a terrorist organization, but how am I supposed to look at it if Israel has? But if this isn't a cultural difference, and just the evil side of the world, I don't know how to explain my stance on this issue to you.
The reasons why I'm highlighting the failures and double standards of the U.S. should become apparent if you want to look into human rights, Israel has been a poster child of such good behaviour. Just look at it, these are the good guys.
I'm not sure how "irrelevant" it might be to throw the U.S. into the discussion on Iran's currency, like I said in my first post: ...As a direct result of sanctions.

This thread isn't to discuss whether or not killing homosexuals simply for being homosexuals is a crime against humanity (it is, by the way), nor is it to discuss nations' comparative moralities. Please get back on topic, everyone.

Wow Iran's economy is taking a nosedive! Even migrant workers are leaving the country, that's when you know it's bad. I wonder if this will largely effect the rest of the worlds economy.

Nah, probaby not very much. Iran's a pretty secluded country.

It won't. The entire reason Iran's economy is collapsing is because the world has cut them off - so if they go belly-up, the results of an Iran-less world economy will be exactly what you see today.
