It´s not the title so much as the reporting. A bill was indeed set before parliament to grant Snowden citizenship, but because it was put forward on the last day of parliament it didn't get voted on. Instead a vote on a parliament committee was made. The support of almost half of parliament is a little more than minimal.
- fastball 13y agoNope, title is misleading. Using "Iceland" implies a majority consensus among some part of the Icelandic population, whether it be a public poll or a group of politicians. In this case, the title should be more like "Icelandic Politician wants to give Snowden citizenship".
- ownagefool 13y ago38.1% isn't really half, but considered the small amount it feels closer. Still 38.1% voting yes to something probably not in their interests, because they're nice guys, is still a pretty good result. At least it is when you the world we live in.
