Robert Worth on Iranian hypocrisy

The point of the article by Robert Worth is a point that Jeffrey Feltman makes in every appearance he makes in the Arab media.  So Iran is indeed hypocritical and inconsistent for supporting all Arab uprisings except the uprising in Syria.  But: is the US less hypocritical and less inconsistent when it supports the uprising in Syria and Iran but opposes them in Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Morocco, Tunisia (until Bin Ali fled) and Egypt (until Mubarak stepped down), and Algeria? I mean, Worth did not notice that Iran is not alone in this hypocrisy?
