Irans supreme leader has blasted the Wests publication of cartoons
TEHERAN - The Wests publication of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) cartoons was an Israeli conspiracy motivated by anger over Hamas win in the Palestinian elections, Irans supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, said on Tuesday. Wow, so the Jews had Danish cartoonists draw those pictures and publish them months ago knowing Hamas was going to win? How devious | Speaking to Iranian air force personnel, Khamenei also praised the governments sharply curbing the access of UN inspectors to Irans nuclear facilities in response to the decision to report the country to the UN Security Council. The restricted access corresponds to the Iranian peoples dignity and honor, Khamenei said.
He also criticized the Saturday decision of the International Atomic Energy Agency to report Irans nuclear activities to the Security Council, saying the move discredited the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty. Unfortunately, international bodies have lost their identity under the influence of the arrogant powers, he said, referring to the United States and European Union.
