TEHRAN/WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Thursday Iran was close to enriching uranium nearly pure enough for atomic bombs but the United States was dismissive, saying he spoke to rally government supporters on the Islamic revolution's 31st anniversary.

The Iranians do have the right to Nuclear power, but we all have to remember; with great power, comes great responsibility. Yeah, so far we haven't destroyed each other with Nuclear annihilation, but who's to say that wont be tomorrow, or even a week from now?

Israel, China, North Korea, United States, France, UK, Pakistan, India all of the have Nuclear Weapons
Why can't Iran?

"The Iranian nation is brave enough that if one day we wanted to build nuclear bombs we would announce it publicly without being afraid of you," Ahmadinejad said, addressing Iran's Western enemies.
He told the crowd, "When we say that we don't build nuclear bombs, it means that we won't do that because we don't believe in having it." The United States does not believe Iran is capable of enriching uranium to that degree, White House spokesman Robert Gibbs said in response.
"Iran has made a series of statements that are ... based on politics, not on physics," he told reporters.
