Ahmadinejad: U.S. Ties Hurting Britain
 | Ahmadinnerplate babbles again. |
LONDON (AP) - Britain's close alliance with the United States is damaging its standing in the Muslim world, Iran's president said in an interview published Saturday. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad urged Britons to evict Prime Minister Tony Blair's government from office, saying Blair's support for Washington's foreign policy could force Britain into future Mideast conflicts, The Guardian newspaper reported.
"The British people should stop supporting governments that are waging war in the Middle East, such as their own government, the United States government and Israel," Ahmadinejad reportedly said.
| Because none of the Moose-limb nations have anything against the Brits otherwise -- well, other than that they're infidels and crusaders. |
Ahmadinejad said that the era in which America and a handful of other nations dominated world affairs was drawing to a close, and vowed that those trying to stop Iran from developing its nuclear capability would not succeed. "They are trying to deny our right to develop nuclear power," he said. "But no one can impose anything on the Iranian people. They will not succeed. This arrogance will not last forever. Soon you will see the great powers kicked out of their throne."
