Ahmadinejad letter attacks Bush (says he caused 911 and brings up WMDs)
BBC News ^ | May 9 2006

Posted on 05/09/2006 5:18:02 AM PDT by jmc1969

Details have emerged of the surprise letter written by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to US President George W Bush.

In it, Mr Ahmadinejad criticises the US invasion of Iraq and urges Mr Bush to return to religious principles.

The letter was issued as foreign ministers met in New York for talks on the Iranian nuclear crisis.

Iraq 'lies'

Mr Ahmadinejad spoke of the invasion of Iraq, a US cover-up over the 11 September 2001 attacks, the issue of Israel's right to exist and the role of religion in the world.

"On the pretext of the existence of WMDs, his great tragedy [the US invasion of Iraq] came to engulf both the peoples of the occupied and the occupying country.

"Lies were told in the Iraqi matter," Reuters news agency quoted the letter as saying. "What was the result? I have no doubt that telling lies is reprehensible in any culture, and you do not like to be lied to," Mr Ahmadinejad is quoted as saying.

The president also questioned the creation of Israel, asking "how can this phenomenon be rationalised or explained?", Reuters reported.

In another part of the letter, Mr Ahmadinejad suggests Washington has concealed elements of the truth about the 11 September 2001 attacks on New York and Washington, Reuters reports.

"Why have the various aspects of the attacks been kept secret? Why are we not told who botched their responsibilities?" he asks.

The president ends the letter by appealing to Mr Bush to return to religion.

"We increasingly see that people around the world are flocking towards a main focal point - that is the Almighty God.

"My question for you is, 'Do you not want to join them?'"

The 18-page document has not yet been made public....

I hope it's made public soon. I can't imagine what nebulous rants it must contain. It likely has all of the substance of a stalker's letter to a celebrity.

The Holocaust?

This guy's paddling up the wrong tree with no lights on.
