Iran Nuclear Watch: Ayatollah Ali Khamenei – Iran Will Continue Nuclear Program

AP: Iran says it won’t stop nuclear program

Iran’s supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Monday that Tehran will continue to pursue nuclear technology, despite aU.N. Security Council deadline to suspend uranium enrichment by the end of the month or face the threat of economic and diplomatic sanctions.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran has made its own decision and in the nuclear case, God willing, with patience and power, will continue its path,” Khamenei was quoted as saying by state television.

You have to say that President Ahmadinejad and Supreme Cleric Khamenei have been consistent. Flap wonders if Foggey bottom and the Europeans have received the message through their thick fog of denial.

He accused the United States of putting pressure on Iran despite Tehran’s assertions that it was not seeking nuclear weapons. “Arrogant powers and the U.S. are putting their utmost pressure on Iran while knowing Iran is not pursuing nuclear weapons,” he said.

Iran does NOT wish to negotiate – they don’t want to DANCE.

The West can pursue sanctions or await Iran going nuclear. The latter seems the direction of the West to their detriment.

Stay tuned for the formal announcement on the P-5-Plus-1 proposal.
