TEHRAN, Iran — President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Sunday his country would move forward with its disputed nuclear program, comparing its nuclear drive to a train that has no brakes.

The hard-line leader also repeated his call for negotiations, saying the time for "bullying" had expired. International leaders have demanded that Iran halt uranium enrichment.

"The train of the Iranian nation is without brakes and a rear gear,"

A train that running in full speed, then the brakes were intentionally removed.

This is just like suicide bombing.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice responded to Iran's declaration that it had no "reverse gear" on its nuclear program by saying on Sunday that what Iran needed to do was halt weapons-related activities.

Rice said if Tehran did so, the United States was prepared to discussed trade and political issues, and she would be willing to meet her Iranian counterpart.

I don't know about you Gazz but the article is not written in his entirety in the link by fox. . .

"The train of the Iranian nation is without brakes and a rear gear," the radio quoted Ahmadinejad as telling a gathering of Islamic clerics. "We dismantled the rear gear and brakes of the train and threw them away sometime ago."

It looks like nick picking and the rest of the link is nothing but opinions about that particular quote. . .

I look all over the net for the entire speech but all I found were links of the same piece to fox news and Condoleeza Rices answer back.

The answer is simple I ran out of space for characters within the external news source space in the OP Marg.

I am skeptical myself of the importance of this quote from the Iranian leader. While he tends to talk tough to his own people through Iranian media, He seems to try to convey a completely different message to the international community.

If indeed Iran is on a quest for Nuclear weapons, and that equates to a train without breaks, I suppose the message is "Nothing will stop us"

That is worrisome, mainly because there are those within the U.S. Government who are convinced the only option now left for dealing with Iran is a Military option.

It all starts out with a war of words and I have yet to see either side trying to deescalate the situation. In other words, both sides want a showdown at the OK corral.

lets not forget that now Bush has a new intelligence director that will do the next reports on Iran the way Bush and Cheney want them, Negroponte was honest enough to step down and so he didn't have to lie. . .

Honest like a starving jackal.

Negroponte went back to he state department cause prefers it and has more experience in it, plus the Pentagram wanted a officer as Director of National Intelligence as part of the militarization of America plan. I very much doubt honesty had much to do with any of it, since Negroponte has had plenty experience in committing lies, fraud and treachery. Now that the DoD has figured out who they wanted besides Negro as Intelligence czar, it's all good to go.

Condi also needed an Igor for her mad experiments in diplomacy. If Dick resigns, Condi takes the Veep spot, then Negroponte gets his dream job as head of state. It looks to more as a clever plan in getting set up for some changes on the horizon. This could also explain why Cheney is grabbing attention, flying to Asia/Australia, and saying the exact opposite what Bush in regards to plans on attacking Iran, cause he's either about to get the boot or Fitzgerald is going to nail him.

Time for the manure to be spread, a war harvest is coming and:
