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?'"

This letter was obviously written by someone at the DNC or the MSM.
A diplomatic solution that prevents the Iranian mullahs from getting nuclear weapons has been rendered impossible, or nearly impossible, by the American media and Democrats, who have filled our enemies heads with false justification for their treachery.
Another foreign enemy citing 'Rat talking points.
Millions of Jews were exterminated during an effort to reshape the world in which the local Arab population was complicit. Arab / Islamic government officials continue their thinly veiled calls for mass extermination to this very day. They did indeed reshape the world. They just didn't get the structure they wanted. Now they negotiate and posture as if history started on the day Israel was created.
If he's still alive in '08, Ahmadinejad will be a keynote speaker at the DNC Convention.
He should be assisinated by his own. What is wrong with the Iranian people why don't they just dispose of him and NOW!
He'' probably get Michael Moores seat next to Carter in the presidential box.
Is Ahmedinejad a Friends fan? From season four....
Rachel: I wrote you a letter.
Ross: Ohh! Thank you! I like mail. (He goes to kiss her again, but she turns away.)
Rachel: (handing him the letter) It’s just some things I’ve been thinking about. Some things about us, and before we can even think about the two of us getting back together, I just need to know how you feel about this stuff.
Ross: Okay. (He leans in to kiss her again, but she leans back preventing him from making contact.) Wow, it’s-it’s 5:30 in the morning. (Rachel laughs) So, I’d better get cracking on this baby.
Rachel: Well, I’ll be waiting for you, just come up when you’re done.
Ross: Okay, I’ll be up in, (looks at the letter) 18 pages. Front and back. Very exciting.
What religious principles would that be? Beheadings? Threatening nuclear annihilation? Antisemitism?
Ahmadinejad reminds me of a 1960s era hippy war protester without the tie-dyed tee shirt. Maybe he should write to JF'nK, they both seem to have the same grasp of reality.
The goat claims he was tricked into the rendezvous with Ahmadinejad's mother as part of a Fraternity prank.
And that concerns me....why they in such a worry...what are we not seeing.
Sheesh more coffee...
That bothers me too.
At least I know I'm not alone...
Gee, I guess it was not really a "private" letter then? What kind of national leader writes an 18 page rant in long hand? A crazy one, that's who. This guy may be nuts, but he is also very dangerous.
