hopefully, other nations will follow suit

cool reception for dick 'the dick' cheney in azerbaijan

apparently, dickles was miffed and refused his dinner- and went to pout in his room. wah!

"Neither President Ilkham Aliyev nor the Prime Minister, Artur Rasizade, were there to greet Cheney at Baku airport. Instead, he was met by the country’s First Deputy PM and the Foreign Minister.

The Kommersant newspaper reports that Cheney was very annoyed by the results of the meeting with President Aliyev and even refused to attend a ceremonial supper in his own honour."

I'd have preferred they have someone waiting and ready to slap him in irons. The international community has to sooner or later take the Nuremberg principle seriously and present these war criminals to the Hague.

Bonjour Betmo,

Your vice president's reception in Az. is normal considering his position in the US.

As far as I know your VP has no political power and thus it would be inadequate to receive him otherwise.

The deputy PM must have been his counterpart in oily Az.

I wonder what he got as a welcome present. May be a gallon of the finest.

bonjour georg, perhaps in reality- but media and people here believe he is the president- and he does too :)
