Out of interest and off topic, if the members of the scumbag 'nasty party' were all on a ship and the ship began to sink, would you feel any compassion?

I doubt it, it would probably be him who caused it to sink in the first place.

Re: Iranian Floods

Of course people feel compassion for the poor people caught up in this disaster .

However how welcome would help be for Iran ?

Their leaders are hardly likely to welcome a US or Isreali disaster team .I don't know about the UK

France who has always been close to Iran is going to send water pumps etc as soon as it can get them organised. .

How exactly do sanctions on Iran cause a natural disaster ?
The trouble as said in your clip is largely cause by mismanagement of land houses built on flood plains and too near rivers .
Flash floods are long known in thes areas.
Blaming the USA is just rediculous .
