Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has accepted an invitation to visit Cuba from President Fidel Castro, in gratitude for Cuba's support of Iran's nuclear program, the official Granma newspaper said on Tuesday.
Ahmadinejad accepted the invitation in Tehran from Cuban Ambassador Felipe Perez Roque. During his visit, the Iranian leader will attend the September 11-16 Non-Aligned Summit in Havana, the daily said.
On Saturday in Vienna, Cuba, Venezuela and Syria voted against a resolution of the International Atomic Energy Agency to refer Iran to the UN Security Council over a nuclear program the West suspects is weapons-oriented.
The Iranian President recently publicly thanked Cuba for its "dignified and principled" position during the IAEA's special meeting, which ended in a 27-3 vote in favour of reporting Iran to the UN council.
Separately, Granma announced that Iranian Parliament President Ghulam Ali Haddad Adel has accepted an invitation to visit Cuba from Cuba's National Assembly.
Ya know, I think we need a clip from "Family Guy", when Peter secedes from US and invites all the "wild and crazy guys" to Petoria.
"Cooking with Mustard Gas"... "Allllaaaaahu Akbar"... "o o do that thing you do before you slay an infidel"
I bet Jimmy Carter, Hugo Chavez, Harry MALofonte and Cindy Sheehan will all be there too. Good time for an "accident"
Boy a well placed bomb could kill 2 birds with one stone...
LOL! If that's the date then Castro will be greeting a corpse.
Looks like a target-rich environment to me.
Do you suppose they will talk about giving nuke technology to Castro? Or maybe vice versa.
Castro is so old, it probably doesn't matter too much to him if he starts a nuclear war.
Boy, it would be such a shame if his plane crashed.
Castro....getting old aren't you? 'Timmeee...isn't on your side, yes it isn't.' A free cuba would be nice thing.
Wow, what an opportunity. Do you think anyone would notice if we just sunk the entire island?
Wow how perfect ... We can hit Iran's president at the same time taking out fidel .. then we can take the janet jackson route and say it was a trigger malfunction... its almost too perfect.
has Jack Bauer been informed?
Target Rich Environment.
Mr. President no nation building this time. Heres a chance at a quick solution.
here's the perfect time to 'rectify' this little problem with the president of Iran.....while flying to Cuba , or better yet at the airport landing reception. 2 birds with one stone.
It's time to play hardball.
"Do you suppose they will talk about giving nuke technology to Castro? Or maybe vice versa."
Iran is one of Cuba's sugar daddies. Venezuela is the other.
Remember Adm. Yamamoto?
