| 'Iran the only chance for Obama' |
| 2010-04-15 |
| Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that he has sent a letter to US President Barack Obama, the contents of which will be made public in the near future. Ahmadinejad made the announcement in an interview televised live on Channel One of Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting on Tuesday night. He said that Iran is the "only chance" for Obama to realize his change motto. "What formula can he propose to make any development in Palestine that could be considered a victory for him and could strengthen his position in the US?" Ahmadinejad asked. "He can't do anything in Iraq or Afghanistan either because the situation is so complicated there that he can't create a tangible change there that could be considered a victory," IRNA quoted the Iranian president as saying. Ahmadinejad also noted that Obama will not be able to improve the US economy through a miracle. "Obama only has one way to tell the world that he has created change, and that is Iran," he stated. Ahmadinejad urged Obama to seize the opportunity and to desist from threatening Iran, saying, "The era that they assumed that they could damage Iran is over." "Thank God, no one can damage the Iranian nation any longer," he added. Ahmadinejad went on to say that Iran does not want confrontation and is seeking cooperation and negotiation with others. |

| #5 I share your concerns, JM. He's cocky, taunting us, but it is no less than nuclear blackmail. Sanctions will no longer work as even Brazil and Turkey will not comply, China is still supplying them with gasoline and maybe more, plus Kimmy is quite desperate and needs the moola from somewhere. Missiles and technology are NK's only products. I'm betting we are already too late and need to put Israel in our prayers. |

| #4 It could be interpreted as an invitation to bomb the hell out of their nuclear facilities. BO might get a slight nudge in the polls. |

| #2 "Obama only has one way to tell the world that he has created change, and that is Iran," So Obama should tell the world that he created Iran? |
