Now that Iran is claiming that it is capable of industrial-scale uranium enrichment, which defies two U.N. resolutions, the West is claiming that Iran's claim has more to do with political posturing than technical progress. In the speech yesterday by Ahmadinejad where he made this declaration, the Iranian President also warned the West to end its pressure against Iran regarding the production of uranium, or else Iran would reconsider its policy of cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency.
Sounds like a threat to me.
It is possible that Ahmadinejad's statement was a threat to withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, as North Korea did four years ago.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad resembles a child pushing the limits, seeing how far he can push the envelope before it's too far. His actions are unacceptable, and are nothing less than the next step towards a clandestine weapons program.
Give a petulant child a big firecracker, and he's liable to blow his hand off, or he may throw it at you.
Most everything Ahmadinejad says is a carefully worded threat. If you listen to him, it is quite clear what he is saying.
ReplyDeleteHe's not cooperating with the AIEA now - but, he uses words to make people think that he is.
He is clever and dangerous.
Momo believes it is his job to pave the way for the 12th Imam. He is thumbing his nose and tempting an attack so he can get the destruction he desires to bring back this imam. I'm all for giving it to him.
