| Iran also wants US out of Iraq as well as UK out of Basra |
| 2006-02-18 |
| Iranian Foreign Minister Manushehr Mottaki demanded on Friday the immediate withdrawal of US forces from Iraq and British troops from Basra, accusing the British soldiers of destabilizing Iraq's second largest city. Wrapping up a three-day visit to Lebanon, Mottaki said Iran supported the "current political process in Iraq," but he urged the incoming government to control the "escalating terrorism" targeting Iraqi civilians and to push for an immediate end to what he called the US occupation. "We believe that the presence of the British forces in Basra has destabilized security in this city and has had some negative effects in the form of threats against southern Iran recently," Mottaki said. |

| #7 I'm sure they do. An US ground force on my border would make me nervous too if I was a terrorist state. :D |

| #6 I hope that when we go for the mad mullahs, we don't attempt to nation build. I like Iran so much, I like a lot of little ones. We need to start arming whoever will target the mullahs, Basij, and IRG. The argument will be "we armed bin Laden..." Yes, but the situation in Iran is different. The asshats ARE the terrorists. They have now, or will have nukes soon. Terrorists with nukes - how can any thinking person in the West believe that this is acceptable? |
