Attack Will Be a Nightmare for US: Kharrazi
Iran's foreign minister has told a Bosnian newspaper that if Washington decides to attack Iran it will be a nightmare for the United States. "If America decides to attack Iran, they will make a big mistake. It will be a nightmare for them," Kamal Kharrazi was quoted as saying in an interview published yesterday in the Nezavisne Novine newspaper. Kharrazi is part of an Iranian delegation led by President Mohammad Khatami which concluded a three-day visit to Bosnia yesterday.

Disputes between Iran and the US "have a long history," Kharrazi was quoted as telling the Banja Luka-based daily. "During our conflict with Iraq, the US took the side of our enemies. There are also many other problems," Kharrazi was quoted as saying. He said talk of American military intervention in Iran was "political pressure... The United States does not want to understand that Iran is an important player in global relations. Iran is democratic and has a positive role in promoting peace and security in the world." At the end of the interview Kharrazi said that unlike Iraq, Iran is "a united nation and a strong government." "If they (the United States) attack us, I think, it will above all be a nightmare for them," Kharrazi was quoted as saying.
A classic case of delusions of adequacy.
