Iran: Giant achievements coming soon

Ahmadinejad: On February 11, Islamic Republic's nuclear rights 'will be established'
Yaakov Lappin

"Giant achievements" by Iran will be unveiled by its president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in the coming days, the Iranian Fars news agency reported on Saturday.

The Iranian news agency said an upcoming dramatic announcement on Iran's nuclear "rights" would be made on February 11. The report was accompanied by a series of announcements heralding alleged Iranian technological and medical breakthroughs, including an "AIDS cure."

Ahmadinejad's "administration is going to publicize the country's remarkable progresses and achievements within the coming days," the Fars news agency said.

"The Iranian president also reiterated that February 11 is the day when the Iranian nation's inalienable right to access and use nuclear technology will be established," the agency added.

"The Iranian nation will celebrate stabilization and establishment of its nuclear rights during the Ten-Day Dawn, (sic)" Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying. The "ten-day dawn" in early February marks the date of the Islamic revolution in Iran in 1979.

"When a nation decides to stand on its own feet to climb up the peaks, God helps it and that nation will embrace victory," Ahmadinejad said.

The Iranian government's boasts of "great achievements" included an announcement on Saturday that Iranian scientists have "introduced an AIDS cure".

"After seven long years of arduous work, Iranian scientists here on Saturday introduced a herbal medicine which cures Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome (AIDS)," Fars reported.

"The drug named 'IMOD' is completely effective and safe with no proven side effects," Iran's Minister of Health Kamran Bagheri Lankarani claimed during a ceremony.

"The world should know today that the capable Iranian nation, relying on its own youths and scientists, has now conquered the peaks of knowledge and science," Ahmadinejad declared during his speech.

What? They haven't conquered space and time yet?

I'm sure all the "medical" breakthroughs have been peer reviewed also.

Next we'll hear that Achmadiddlediid... Bob has beaten Pat Robertson's leg press record using an "ancient Persian secret".

Dammit, I thought this thread is talking about someone building an actual Iron Giant. What a waste of time reading this thread.

They might as well could have said: "Giant mushroom clouds popping up over Israel".

Because, in the Iranian govt. heart of hearts, that is what they want. Not to mention, they've always said they want to destroy Israel first, then the US.

Lord Rick · 02-05-07, 10:14 AM

Or they could have said - "No pre-emptive US strike on Iran."

How about Iran work on giving their people cement houses instead of mud so when they have an earthquake 50,000 don't die and we don't have to give them aid? Sounds like a better idea than nukes but that's just me.

They can do both once they start selling their AIDS cure.

Bronkster · 02-05-07, 10:32 AM

Yeah, yeah, Iran has an AIDS cure like Iraq had WMDs.

kvrdave · 02-05-07, 10:50 AM

I am betting that Iran's AIDS cure involves lead.

It's the other way around...

...which is the only possible way for him to complete his goal.

I heard that Iran's top nuclear scientist came down with a case of Mossad over the weekend.

Of course you do.

sjrab16 · 02-06-07, 04:19 PM

I have always wondered if they really do want to see the destruction of Israel? If Israel was finally destroyed like they want, then the people in the countries might actually come to them and ask for some of the social issues dealt with, instead of keeping all of the oil money for themselves.
