The U.S Has Never Entered A Real War: Ahmadinejad

By ETHAN Markoff

In a fresh bluster, Iran's firebrand President Mahamoud Ahmadinejad warned United States not to dare touch Iran's soil, else it would enter a real war that makes previous conflicts pale. Talking with journalists in his annual gathering Tuesday, rejecting the effects of economic sanctions and affirmed that the nuclear program was peaceful.

In a conference table, surrounded by world's leading news editors and television producers, Iran's leader warned U.S not to attack on the country otherwise U.S would see a real war with no limits.

“The United States has never entered a real war, not in Vietnam, nor in Afghanistan, nor even World War II,” Mr. Ahmadinejad said during the meeting at a hotel in Midtown Manhattan.

However, he denied the crossing of threshold limit, rejecting the threat of attack as a mere psychological warfare. He also said the Iran was always ready for talks.

In June, the United Nations Security Council passed a fourth round of sanctions that made the relationships between two countries more bitter. There were several penalties imposed by United States, Asian countries and European nations. The United Nations nuclear watchdog said the penalties were the consequence in refusing Iran to inspect and access information about its nuclear program.

The U.S officials have believed the country is moving closer toward nuclear weapons capabilities in spite Iran's affirmation that its nuclear program was peaceful.

In his statement President Ahmadinejad accused politics for the foul play. He said the international inspectors had access to Iranian nuclear sites and his country was developing in line with International nuclear treaties.

“Iran’s nuclear case is a political case,” he said. “Otherwise, why would it be essential for the details of our nuclear program to be made available to the media?”

Mr. Ahmadinejad, asked for his reaction to Iran's judiciary, which has recently assaulted by global criticism over the arrest of about 500 journalists, activists and government officials. Answering questions, Mr. Ahmadinejad explained the nation's judicial system was misinterpreted by Western world. He said the Nation was not imprisoning anyone for political reasons - a statement harshly contradicts the evaluations of human rights groups.

At home, the political rivals in Iran's conservative hierarchy appear to exploiting Ahmadinejad's absence. They blamed him for an autocratic behavior and disregarded for mismanagement in government sectors.
