The State Department granted this man a special exemption so he could get a visa to appear at the United Nations: Iranian rails against US over nuclear weapons.
Iran’s new hardline president launched a blistering attack on America and its allies at the United Nations last night as he fiercely defended his country’s right to nuclear technology.
“Let me be blunt. State terrorism is being supported by those who claim to fight terrorism,” Mahmood Ahmadinejad said in a thinly-veiled tirade against the West at the UN General Assembly.
In his uncompromising address, he offered only a slight hint of an olive branch over Iran’s nuclear ambitions as talks with Britain, France and Germany, the so-called EU3, remain stalled.
Mr Ahmadinejad proposed that unnamed third-party countries could be allowed to share in Iran’s nuclear programme, an offer that is too vague to satisfy the country’s critics.
Otherwise, he used his first visit to America to turn the tables on the Western powers that are convinced the Islamic republic is secretly seeking to develop nuclear weapons. The recently-elected Iranian leader also issued an implicit threat to abandon co-operation on nuclear matters if his country was threatened with penalties.
Broadening his verbal assault, he also called for “foreign occupation forces” to leave Afghanistan and Iraq and even raised questions about who was behind the September 11 attacks.
He was probably referring to this: Iranian TV: 9/11, Made By Mossad.
