    Op-Ed: Ahmadinejad declares Iran is already a nuclear power

    The Middle East crisis continues as Ahmadinejad lands in Cairo a few months before Iran reaches nuclear weaponization. He declares that Iran is nuclear, but will not harm Israel. Analysts believe that Tehran has no nuclear weapons capability yet.

    Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made his offer for a pact with Egypt to “solve the Palestinian problem, which really means wiping Israel off the map, according to Debka Files. Both Egypt and Iran dream of Israel’s destruction; therefore, they probably discussed their future attack on Israel.
    President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared that Iran now possesses nuclear technology, something the international community has worked hard to prevent. Despite fears to the contrary, Tehran says it has no interest in attacking Israel. Iran has consistently maintained its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes, a claim that is treated with suspicion in the West, according to News Max. Ahmadinejad’s word has become the joke for this year because every analyst believes that he wants to destroy Israel. Many Analysts do not believe that Tehran has any nuclear weapons capability otherwise Israel would have attacked Iran.

    Analysis

    During his visit to Egypt, Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared that Iran is “already a nuclear state.” He vowed that Iran would resist those who want them to regress technologically. Additionally, he spewed out anti-Semitic remarks claiming that the Zionists are taking over wealthy places, the economy, and the political propaganda for deceiving the global.

    On the visit, Ahmadinejad offered economic support to the Egyptian government. Both Iran and Egypt have struggling economies on the brink of economic collapse, but Egyptian economy is much worse than Iran. Things have gotten so bad in Egypt that the government’s official advice to the people is to “avoid overeating” and they announced they are cutting the food subsidy by a significant number of calories per person per day. The tourism decline and foreign aid since the radical Muslim Brotherhood took power has taken a serious toll on the Egyptian economy.

    And on Israel’s northern border, the Syrian civil war fighting this month has been heaviest in recent months. The capital of city of Damascus, which has been heavily defended by government forces, has come under intense attack. The ongoing struggle places the fate of Syria’s chemical and biological weapons in doubt. The Israelis Air Force have struck a few military targets in Syria and neighboring Lebanon, including what is believed to have been a chemical weapons research facility. It appears that the Mideast war involving Israel against Iran, Syria, and Egypt have already commenced without any official declaration.

    Deterrence against aggression: Iran is a nuclear power, says Larijani

    ISLAMABAD: Iran is a nuclear power and any attack on the Islamic republic will cost the aggressor a heavy price, said the country’s parliament’s speaker Dr Ali Ardashir Larijani.
    “We are not depending on nuclear weapons. We are also strong in other defence sectors,” Larijani said on ExpressNews’ talk show “Kal Tak”. The show will be aired today at 10pm.

    Asked if Iran had the capability to defend itself against aggression from Israel, Larijani said the Jewish state would not dare do that because Iran was a much larger and stronger country than Israel.

    “If America ever attacked Iran, the government and people of Pakistan will support Iran because Tehran has historic relations with Pakistan and Pakistanis,” said Larijani, adding that America would never commit such a mistake.

    He proposed that Iran, Pakistan and Afghanistan should jointly devise a solution to the Afghan imbroglio since the region would be left with major issues after the withdrawal of foreign forces from Afghanistan.

    Asked about the multi-billion-dollar Iran-Pakistan gas pipeline, Larijani said that despite US opposition the two countries should make decisions based on their own interests. He also offered to open up Iran’s borders with Pakistan, if the project was approved.

    Larijani belongs to a prominent family of Iran with one of his brothers serving as the chief justice while another is an influential religious leader. He is also a strong candidate for president in the upcoming elections.

    The Islamic republic is under various rounds of international sanctions over its disputed nuclear programme which the West fears is aimed at developing weapons. Iran insists its atomic work is peaceful.

    On Sunday, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that Tehran would “not retreat an iota” from “its nuclear rights”.

    In an interview published on February 6 in Egyptian media, Ahmadinejad also claimed that Tehran had achieved nuclear capability. However, he said Iran was uninterested in attacking the “Zionist entity”, while referring to Israel.

    Decisions on Tehran’s nuclear programme rests with supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, whose representative Saeed Jalili leads the negotiating team in talks with world powers. An earlier proposal by Washington to directly discuss the Iranian programme at Almaty with the Iranian team was shot down by Khamenei last week.
    Iran is also being pressured by the UN’s atomic watchdog agency to grant broader access to its facilities, scientists and documents to resolve outstanding concerns over its past atomic activities. translated by Arshad Shaheen

        The author of this op-ed is an idiot. The Saudis and the Iranians would attack each other before they even think about attacking Israel. Iran going nuclear is not a threat to Israel but more to the Saudis.

          Why should Israel be allowed to have nuclear and not Iran? doesnt make sense, specially given the fact the Israel has full backing from USA which has a huge military and will take on anyone posing a threat to Israel anyway. besides, who the hell has the right to decide who should and should not have nuclear arms.

            It was decided by the 5 imperial powers that won WW2. These imperial powers have the right to invade and interfere anywhere they want. The UN was set up so the 5 imperial powers don't come into conflict with each other.

                      Yes very right. This is why the Wahabi Saudis have made Shia Muslims as monsters in the eyes of Sunnis and the fact is that Shias never reverted to terrorism as they are more spiritual, sufistic and peace loving people while wahabis are the worst on the earth by being extremists, terrorists and violent and the worse is to use the name of Islam to commit all these evils.

                        I agree with all, that if anybody has something , how can he command others not to have it too. But one should act out of responsability for life, while humanity is doing oposite. One idiot got atomic bomb, all others followed. Before only one idiot could destroy life on earth, now many idiots can do so.

                              What do you think of the concept of deterrence? The example is US and former USSR or India-Pakistan.The same way if Israel is atomic power and Iran too, the balance will avert war.
