Whatever you do, don't offend the visiting Iranian with your culture

It seems that there is no limit to the pit of the servility and blind political correctness of modern liberalism.
I notice that Weigel fails to take much notice of the influence the Italian businessmen must surely have had on their PM's decision to bow to the Iranian demands. A more insightful author might have mentioned how billions of dollars can make anything for sale.
Liberalism? I think this is more about good old fashioned money. Namely, 16 billion dollars in trade agreements with Iran.
I'll wager Prime Minister Matteo Renzi is far, far more concerned with the profits of his rich, conservative Italian businessmen than with Iranian sensibilities. That's the way these things work.
Pbbbbttttt!
That's just wimpy Italy.
Here in Americastan, we offend my Iranian in-laws every time they visit.
We have abominable art & stuff all over the place.
The problem it that they don't appear to take offense at all.

Then again the French, a pit of liberal carnality if ever there was one, told him to **** off when he didn't want wine served.

I've never been too keen on the French, but I have to admire how they stand up for their culture. In Britain it would be all about pleasing business interests.
