Boycott Iran, Not Indiana
Investor's Business Daily ^ | April 7, 2015 | IBD EDITORIALS

Hypocrisy: Those boycotting Indiana over gay wedding pizzas have no problem doing business with an Iran that hangs gays, stones women and wants to wipe Jews off the face of the Earth. And the Hoosier State doesn't even want nukes.

Righteous, if somewhat selective, indignation is a hallmark of liberals, whether ensconced in Congress or corporate America, currently up in arms over the version of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) enacted in Indiana and allegedly giving business owners a license to discriminate against gays.

Former Hewlett-Packard CEO and potential presidential contender Carly Fiorina punctured Apple CEO Tim Cook's balloon last week in a Wall Street Journal interview in which she pointed out Cook's "hypocrisy" in condemning Indiana and his saying Apple "will never tolerate discrimination."

Time for Timmy to take a trip to Saudi Arabia and give a speech or two on The Joys of Gayhood and the evils of Pizza Prejudice.

How about a trip to Tehran where he and his partner, whoever he is, would be swinging from the gallows? Did not know about the 10 Apple stores in Tehran. How is that even possible with the supposed economic sanctions in place?

Apple’s “hypocrisy” in this matter points out the true leftist agenda.

More people need to start pointing out this agenda instead of demanding consistency.

Point out where they are consistent - in their hatred for Christians.

More likely than anything, the stores were there before the sanctions, plus it’s also questionable if there are other countries that ship products into Iran, I doubt that every nation on Earth actually goes along with the U.S. in terms of not trading with Iran. Plus, AFAIK, people bootleg computers and computer parts in much of Asia, I would be surprised if a similar bootlegging of computer parts was going on in Iran.
