Today NutJob rules out any talk of Nukes with anybody but IAEA
2009-05-25
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Monday ruled out any talks with world powers on Tehran's nuclear drive, but said he was open to a debate with US President Barack Obama.

"We have said this before and we are saying it right now, that we will not talk about the nuclear issue with those outside the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency)," he told journalistsom international news organisations.

"The Iranian nation will not allow anyone outside the IAEA to discuss our nuclear issue," said Ahmadinejad, who is running for a second term in office in next month's presidential election.

"The nuclear issue is over for us. The talks outside the IAEA will only be about participation in the management of the world and bringing peace to the world," he said.

However, he said he was ready to have a debate at the United Nations with Obama on global issues, adding that he welcomed the change in policy from the new US leader who has said he was open to dialogue with Iran.

#1  Most of what Iran's leader says is not newsworthy. Coming from a place of hate tends to cloud one's logic.
