Tehran, Iran (CNN) -- Iran is so powerful today that no country would dare attack it, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Sunday during an annual army parade.
"Iran's army is so mighty today that no enemy can have a foul thought of invading Iran's territory," the Iranian leader said, according to state media.
"Of course, Iran is a friend and brother of regional and independent nations and it wants peace, progress and security for all countries," Ahmadinejad said.

Iran: too big to fail

Considering what we did to So-damned the Insane, you would think that he wouldn’t make boasts like that. The next President might just put his assertion to the test. We KNOW that Zero won’t.
Dems put a lot of faith in Obama’s personal puisaance. Ahmadinijihad will shatter that faith and expose Obama for what he really is, weak, wanting, and out classed.
Baghdad Bob’s cousin?
Just one, one single US SSBN carries 24 ICBMS. Fully loaded, each ICBM could be MIRV'd with 8 warheads each. Each warhead could be one of the "crowd pleasers" - 475 kT yield. Remeber, the weapons that destroyed Hrioshima and Nagasaki were about 15 kT each.
So, consider the 192 most valuable sites in your Country. Now picture something roughly 30x what hit the Japanese cities landing on it. That's what one SSBN could do to you.
Too powerful to attack? We could turn your entire Country into the proverbial glass-topped self-lighting parking lot in 30 minutes. The reason we don't is we are not psychopaths. We have no desire to kill millions of innocent Iranians who's only crime is being poorly led. Believe me, when it comes to that, we can identify with the Iranian people...
