| Very true Xandax. Only problem is that in Iran diplomats are provided regular access to alochol if and when they want it. The "diplomatic stores" as they are called cater to the desires of diplomats. Cheapest place to buy alcohol in any country as they are tax free. In Saudi Arabia they have access to beaches while saudi's are not. In Pakistan american diplomats have access to special goods imported directly from the US.
To be extremely honest there are no double standards as there is not a single muslim country in the world where diplomats are restricted from drinking alcohol.
Secondly when people have the inability to drink or eat something does that mean you cancel the entire dinner. Next time a bunch of vegans go to beligium does that mean they cancel the entire dinner because they were planning on serving steak?
