Iran: Stick it to the man
According to a new AP report: "Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on Western nations Tuesday to stop their own enrichment programs if they wanted his country to stop its own and return to negotiations."
As much as I dislike Ahmadinejad, and as much as he is an enemy of the working class, he is spot on here.
The U.S. has some nerve, being the country with the most nuclear weapons, and the only country to have ever used nuclear weapons, demanding another country stop its nuclear enrichment program.
It isn't Iran that is running around the world invading countries and killing hundreds of thousands of people in the name of some unending war (but really in the name of profit). It isn't North Korea either.
It's also funny that the U.S. had no problems with Iran developing nuclear power, when it was the one helping them do it, and when there was a pro-U.S. puppet in power.
The hypocrisy never ends; and the mainstream media never mentions it.

Labels: Iran, nuclear, nuclear weapons, U.S., war
I think there are two principled positions:
1) A nation has a right to defend itself against imperialism. If Israel can be armed, so can Iran.
2) total nuclear disarmament.
I agree with your post.
