US will one day 'beg' Iran for ties: Ahmadinejad
2010-10-19
[Dawn] Iran's president claims the United States will one day apologize and "beg" Tehran that the two countries resume diplomatic relations.

Mahmoud Short Round Ahmadinejad also says the US administration has allegedly become so weakened that it can't harm Iran in any way.

US-Iran relations broke off after the US Embassy hostage-taking that followed the 1979 Islamic theocracy, which brought Islamic holy men to power in Iran and ousted the pro-US shah.

The Iranian leader's rhetoric often includes comments seeking to portray Iran as somehow superior to America. Ahmadinejad has made a slew of different statements, at times urging US-Iranian friendship while at other times predicting America's demise. His latest remarks were reported Monday by the official IRNA news agency.

#4  I thought they didn't wear ties in Iran, much less corner the market on them.

#2  Obama probably told him that. He'll be begging for some of that counterfeit currency to make his budgets work, at least until 2012.

#1  Unless the Tea Party movement succeeds, I'm afraid he's right. The current American elites (both parties) are just as worthless and clueless as their Euro counterparts.
