| Khamenei: Threats to attack Iran increased people''s determination to fight |
| 2007-09-23 |
| (KUNA) -- Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran Ali Khamenei Saturday said that "the threats launched against the country increased the determination of the people and officials to fight back. "The aggressors will see severe consequences of their attack," Khamenei warned in a speech to officials of the three Iranian authorities. Repeating threats against Iran was aimed at intimidating the Iranian people and officials, he said, stressing that such threats were not feared of. Khamenei said that "this performance increases our resolve to lift preparedness before the enemies". The French Foreign Bernar kouchner last week called on Iran to prepare for the worst war for its nuclear program ambitions. |

| #5 Propaganda on the part of the Mullahs Zens I'm well aware of that. It still beggars the question of just how pissed off the Iranian people are getting over their mullahs insistence that they all be thrown under the wheels when whatever festivities begin. There remains a perception of residual Persian nationalism that deeply resents the Shi'ite interlopers who have commandeered Iranian religion, culture and wealth. Recent insurgencies among Iran's outlying provinces indicate that only the urban centers hold any concentration of those who really support the regime. It seems as though Iran's police state is required in order to contain the general population's growing restiveness. Still—as with so much of the Muslim world—no one exhibits any strong inclination to begin stringing up the local morals police and other sundry government thugs that prey upon them. The 'Iranian street' are quietly preparing for the worst by stockpiling groceries and supplies in their cellars and back rooms to the extent of a years worth! You keep posting this but never respond to requests for a corroborating link. Please do so. |

| #4 Propaganda on the part of the Mullahs Zens; The 'Iranian street' are quietly preparing for the worst by stockpiling groceries and supplies in their cellars and back rooms to the extent of a years worth! I would say that should a nuclear retaliatory strike by Israel began to spread from their city centers, the thought of radiation sickness and death related diseases would cause a nation wide panic abandoning the entrenched military, no matter how mobile the remaining 'troops' are. I see a scenario 1000 fold of what occured after the first Gulf War. You can order someone to fight; but you can't make that person walk into a frightening unknown and drop dead where you stand. |
