talk about strange bedfellow

to think that the united states is in the company of the likes of cuba, sudan and zimbabwe, makes my skin crawl.

The NYT is alone in revealing there is at least one issue where Iran and the United States can be allies: They both don't want two gay rights groups to have a voice at the United Nations. The United States supported Iran in recommending the denial of a request by two gay rights groups to be given consultative status at the U.N.'s Economic and Social Council. The status would have allowed the groups to join almost 3,000 organizations that are allowed to distribute materials at meetings. Other countries that agreed with Iran and the United States included Cuba, Sudan, and Zimbabwe.
