I've Been Thinking:

Now hear this: "Iran is ready to transfer nuclear know how to the Islamic countries to due their need."
Those are the words of the new president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

The statement was made Thursday, at the United Nations, following a meeting with the Turkish prime minister.
The quote ran on the official Iranian news wire, IRNA, the Islamic Republic News Agency. It is the official statement of the government of Iran and it is out there for all of us to read and remember.
The president wanted his statement to be broadcast around the world. He was right to do so. He has demonstrated to the world just how dangerous and irresponsible his leadership is.

The day before this statement was made Ahmadinejad stood before the General Assembly and proclaimed that the purpose of the United Nations was to promote "global peace and tranquility."
Pity the poor man, he just doesn't understand why the United States and the United Nations are trying to curtail the nuclear activities of Iran.

Iran may be a member of the United Nations, but Iran is certainly not a disciple of the UN agenda.
