Ahmadinejad sees nuclear Iran as “unrivalled” power

Iran’s radical President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Sunday that the Islamic Republic could fast become an “unrivalled world power” by obtaining nuclear capabilities.

“The Iranian nation has the potential to quickly become an unrivalled world power by obtaining modern technology”, Ahmadinejad told commanders of Iran’s paramilitary Bassij force in Tehran. His comments were reported by the official news agency. “With only a short time having passed since the announcement that Iran had obtained nuclear technology, regional and global order have quickly changed”, he said, adding that the “enemies” feared a resurgence of “Islamic identity in the Islamic world”.

The Iranian president reiterated his previous comments that Iran would not heed demands by the United Nations Security Council to suspend its uranium enrichment activities. “They must know that if they want to make unlawful decisions against Iran and issue statements or resolutions, the Iranian nation will thumb its nose at their unjust resolution”, he said, adding that if any limitations were placed on Iran then the countries that had taken such action would suffer “a hundred times worse”.

Ahmadinejad accused international organisations of being pawns in the hands of “several bullying big powers” and hinted that Tehran might withdraw from the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty if the treaty became “discredited”. He rejected the threat of sanctions on Iran as “meaningless”.

In threatening language, Ahmadinejad warned Iran’s enemies, “Do not make yourselves so hated among nations and do not do things that would bellow up the fire of hatred that the nations of the world harbour against you”.

#6  Mullahs and MadMoud > Iran gets Nukes and Empire or its death to everybody. Radical-controlled Iran wants to be the SOLE SOURCE/CENTRE of world Muslim thought, power, and governance, the Unipolar America of the Muslim universe. Mainstream America = defective Clintonian SOCIALIST Amerika only two choices is to submit to the Motherly Secular Socialists-Commies; or the our fellow Male Brutes, and future Commie anti-US cannon fodder to be destroyed later the God-based Socialists/Marxists/Bolsheviks/Commies.

#5  So much for their peaceful purposes claims. How will the Euros, Russians and China try to pooh pooh this as nothing?

Speech like this is "honey lets install a bomb shelter" invoking.

#4  What amazes me is that there are still people in this country that are arguing that Iran is only interested in nuclear energy for power generation.
How is a nuclear power plant going to make them an "unrivalled power"?
