Perhaps that's where the current leader of Iran got his idea? Or perhaps he just pulled up the old one from Iran back in the Khomeinis time. This isn't the first baby boom that a whacked Iranian leader has called for.

FF do you yourself blindly follow a whacky leader, or you use your own brain?
Wait, don't answer that.

The leadership in Iran is now calling for Iranians to have many, many babies and BREED the world into an Islamic state.
Interesting concept isn't it. It appears to have worked for Chrisianity. That is not only because of the the stance on birth control but also marrage as a tool in general. Tell two people that it is immoral to have sex out of wedlock, get them to marry, then let them form their childrens beliefs to that of their own *cough-the church's beliefs-cough*.
Don't be fooled, everyone has an angle.

This is the very reason the Catholic church forbids birth control, so its members will breed more Catholics. The more catholics they have, the more power and money they have.
I don't believe this is an Iranian conspiricy, I think its called planning for the future.
So the Catholics are merely evil, whilst the Iranians are wisely planning for the future?
The level of double standards on this site is outrageous.
The double standards you are seeing were invented in your head. That is NOT the context he posted it in at all. Like he said, planning for the future. Theres nothing "about evil in that sentence. Its called self-preservation. The Israelis constantly attempt to raise their populations through any means possible (and Im not talking about Arab-Israelis, their concern is Jewish-Iraeli population) wether its through birth or immigration. Canada also pays people to relocate to the less populated areas of Canada. Nothing here is evil with the exception that a few of you here don't like the idea of Muslim children or Muslim adults.
"I am against saying two children are enough. Our country has a lot of capacity. It has the capacity for many children to grow in it. It even has the capacity for 120 million people. Westerners have got problems. Because their population growth is negative they are worried and fear that if our population increases, we will triumph over them."

You have to analyze exactly wht he says. When he says that he is against accepting the belief that families should be capped at two per. It is likely he simply believes many would love a larger family, and they should not accept Western standards to limit yourself to two. there is no command or dictate to breed larger families, only the reassurance that larger families are more than welcome
He goes on to say "their population growth is negative they are worried and fear that if our population increases, we will triumph over them."

He is encouraging them to breed because he wants bodies. He wants bodies in order to "triumph over" the West.
I did. So did many, many others. I gave some of the links. Credible people all around the world, including many Iranians, believe exactly the same thing I do about his statement. If you choose not to, that's fine. Many of us are looking at the ENTIRE PICTURE - his words and his actions coupled with this statement. You can be Pollyanna if you wish. I choose to be vigilant. That's not paranoia. It's being smart.

Everything else which was added in with anti-Islam opinions is paranoid speculation and conjecture.

WHOA!!! Where did you get that out of what I posted?
I never said the Catholics were evil, I said they planned for the future. It is not evil to plan for the future, even if it means forbidding birth control.
I never even implied Catholicism was evil. Jeesh.

Flyers, I would like to ask, would you support a Pre-Emptive battle against Iran as a result of everything you believe this man says, and believe may do?
When mighty war rains down upon Iran, I shall be there to laugh alongside the rest of you on the front lines at the war you desired so hard to happen.

Why, then, does Iran not invite some of the millions of starving muslims around the world to come live in Iran?
