Last week, Reza Kahlili, a former Revolutionary Guard member wrote that Iran had reached a deal with the Obama Administration to preserve portions of its nuclear program.
Hossain Ebrahimi told reporters yesterday that Obama sent the regime a secret message.
On Saturday, the Iranian regime confirmed this report. The Iranian regime revealed on Saturday that the Obama Administration sent them a secret message through the Swiss Embassy recognizing their nuclear rights. The Swiss government, acting through its Embassy in Tehran, serves as protecting power for U.S. interests in Iran. Fars News reported, via Weasel Zippers:
Senior Iranian parliamentary sources revealed on Saturday that the Swiss envoy to Tehran has quoted US President Barack Obama as acknowledging Irans nuclear rights.
Swiss Ambassador to Tehran Livia Leu Agosti attended a meeting with senior Iranian foreign ministry officials a few days ago to submit a letter from the US president to Tehran leaders.
Vice-Chairman of the Iranian Parliaments National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Hossein Ebrahimi told FNA that during the meeting, Agosti had told the Iranian officials that President Barack Obama recognizes Irans right of access and use of the nuclear technology.
There are a couple of points with regard to this (US) message (to Iran), Ebrahimi said and added, Firstly, during the session to submit the message, the Swiss ambassador to Tehran quoted the US president as saying that we (the US) recognize your nuclear rights.
As regards the second issue, the lawmaker said that the Swiss diplomat had also quoted Obama as saying that I didnt want to impose sanctions on your central bank but I had no options but to approve it since a Congress majority had approved the decision.
Irans Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehman-Parast said on Sunday that Iran has received a US message regarding the Strait of Hormoz via three different channels.
The US Ambassador to the UN Susan Rice had handed a letter to Irans Ambassador to the UN Mohammad Khazayee; the Swiss Ambassador to Tehran (Livia Leu Agosti) also conveyed the same thing; and Iraqi President Jalal Talabani delivered the same message to Iranian officials, he said last Sunday.
The US letter follows threats by Iran last month to shut off the Strait of Hormoz the worlds most important oil shipping lane if new US and EU sanctions over its nuclear program halted Iranian oil exports.
Iran these are your “nuclear rights”— none. Get it?
President Obama’s “friends” in Iran are not doing him any favors, two weeks before the election, on the day of the foreign policy debate!
I HOPE ROMNEY MAKES A STATEMENT TONIGHT (rather than a charge)
“I WILL NOT SEND SECRET LETTER’S TO IRAN, APPROVING OF THEIR NUCLEAR WEAPONS PROGRAM!”
I saw this all over the message boards back during the Bush years.
Leftists, mostly in expressing their anti-American views, declared that we had no right to prevent another country from attaining nuclear weapons when we had them ourselves.
Of course, this is simply humanism (no culture is better than another) taken to its natural expression in liberalism.
If this is true it makes Neville Chamberlain to be a sharpened talloned hawk.
