Iran vows to remove world's 'corrupt leadership'
2008-04-11
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Thursday set Iran its latest mission of wiping out the "corrupt world leadership," and said sanctions and threats were nothing but scraps of paper. "The Iranian nation will not give up until the corrupt leadership in the world has been obliterated," Ahmadinejad said in the Shiite holy city of Mashhad, northeast Iran, quoted by the Fars news agency. "Our foes should know that threats, sanctions, and political and economic pressures can not force our nation to back down," he added.

Ahmadinejad outlined two goals for the Islamic republic and its people. "We have two missions, to build Islamic Iran and to exert an effort to change the leadership in the world. We have to carry out both (missions) as well as we can," he said.

#6  More detail and a slightly less diplomatic, but more accurate translation:
Iran: President wants to 'annihilate corrupt powers'
Mashhad, 10 April(AKI) - Iran's hardline president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday his country's objective was to destroy what he called corrupt western powers.

"Our objective is to annihilate all corrupt powers that dominate our planet today," said Ahmadinejad.
Paying attention Sen. Pelosi (D: Ghey Mecca)?

He was speaking in the holy Shia city of Mashhad, located 850 kilometres east of the Iranian capital Tehran at an event where he met Senegalese president Abdoulaye Wade.

Ahmadinejad also "advised" western powers to repent or, "otherwise Iranians will hoist their flag on the roof of their buildings."
Sounds like a declaration of war. Too bad our puss leadership will avert their eyes to the Iranians until all our cities erupt in nuclear fire.

"Our enemies do not fear the technological, economical and industrial aspects of our nuclear programme, but tremble at the thought of the Islamic republic sitting as equals with them at the same table," he said.
That's what muslims want: equality.
Koran 98:6 - The unbelievers among the People of the Book and the pagans shall burn for ever in the fire of Hell. They are the vilest of all creatures.

#1  ALso on FREEREPUBLIC + LUCIANNE.

FREEREPUBLIC has it as "CORRUPT WESTERN POWERS" = "CORRUPT WORLD POWERS"???

*IRAN > IRAN: CERTAIN WORLD ANTI-ISLAMIC ACTS ARE INTOLERABLE.

*"To build an ISLAMIC IRAN" > for me, is another indic that OSAMA BIN LADEN + RADICAL ISLAM ARE INTENT ON EMPOWERING AND EXPANDING NUCLEAR IRAN + ACQUIRING ISLAMIST-SPECIFIC NUKES-WMDS ASAP AMAP, BOTH BY 2010 or 2012 [FBI Officio - AQ, etc. facing defeat in 3-3.5 years]. *2008 + 3/3.5 Years = April 2011/April 2011 + Six Mos [OCTOBER 2011]???
