Iranian president criticized for ruling out possible US attack
2007-09-04
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad attracted criticism Monday when local media quoted him as saying his technical education and belief in God helped him rule out the possibility of a US attack.

Ahmadinejad has said previously he doubted Washington would bomb Iran over the country's controversial nuclear program, but his latest comments drew fire because of his justification. "I am an engineer. For hours, I write down various hypotheses, reject them, provide reasons and make plans based on calculations," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying by several newspapers Monday, including the reformist daily Kargozaran. "They (the US) are not able to create troubles for Iran."

US President George W. Bush has refused to take military action off the table as an option in stopping Iranian nuclear development that Washington alleges is cover for a weapons program - a charge Teheran denies.

#4  I doubt Saddam Hussein believe W. meant it until he found himself scuttling into a spider hole. I read recently the President has often confused his enemies by doing exactly what he said he would do.

#3  For me, personally I can believe Moud. Moud is also reportedly quoted as saying Iran can install one new centrifuge every week - IOW, Moud is indirectly hinting that Iran one day will dev large quantities of its own highly enriched uranium + ultimately PLUTONIUM. It comes down to the USA,WEurope, and Russia-China accepting a Radical Iran wid Nuke weapons, and hence by extens Radical Islamist Terror and aligned; or NOT. Amers have to decide whether absolutist "Peace at Any Price" is worth the LT risk from Nuclear-WMD Terror agz the USA, inside the USA.

#2  Does twirling one's index finger next to one's aural input organ constitute "criticism"?
