If (the West) shows its rigidity by making unjust decisions and putting their threats into practice, the Iranian people will not be the only ones to pay the price.

Passing a tough resolution or threatening Iran will not bring about the desired outcome.

Iran is determined to use peaceful nuclear technology and no intimidation or threat can make us give it up.

The United States is a big country but unfortunately it seems it has the brain of a little bird not befitting the greatness of the country.

The problem is that the Iraqi people are facing atrocities from both sides - Zarqawi and also the American troops at times. The Zarqawi groups uses car bombs, the Americans use other bombs. You also know what they do in the prisons.

This democracy... The elections in Iraq were held despite the American opposition. It was the will of the Iraqi people and the religious authorities. [The elections] were the result of pressure by Ayatollah Sistani, by the Iraqi religious authorities, and by the fighting forces in Iraq on America. They left the US no choice but to allow the elections.

The possibility of a war under the current circumstances is not far-fetched and there is some evidence for that.
