Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said here Thursday that his letter to President George W. Bush did not concern the nuclear dossier, but rather was an invitation to Islam and the prophets culture.
He made the above remarks in reply to a reporter while attending press conference on his letter to President Bush in Jakarta in the afternoon of the third day of his stay in Jakarta.
Stressing that the letter was beyond the nuclear issue, the chief executive said that in principle, the country's nuclear case is not so significant to make him write a letter about it.

Ahmadinejad's comments seem to confirm the take on the letter discussed here:

Where was the part about hosing the virgins? I thought that was central to Islamic doctrine. I wouldn't respond if he didn't describe the hosing of the virgins.
More from the article:
"We act according to laws and our activities are quite clear. We are rather intent on solving more fundamental global matters.
"The letter was an invitation to monotheism and justice, which are common to all divine prophets. If the call is responded positively, there will be no more problems to be solved," added the president.
The president said that the letter actually contained a clear message of invitation to human beliefs, adding that its response will determine the future.
A standard move by muslims. Offer a chance to convert and be spared before carrying out a planned attack.
The President's Secret Service needs to be very concerned.
This guy is a ticking time bomb.
move to Breaking News?
Our open borders speak otherwise. How on god's green earth our elected leaders can take this so lightly, given our enemies choice of tactics I simply cannot understand.
Supposedly there are 40,000 Iranians who have volunteered for suicide attacks in Europe and America. Iran has contacts in Central and South America, adjacent to our open border with corrupt Mexico.
If I were an elected official, I would be sweating blood to make our border secure. Why aren't they?
Religion is personal and should stay that way. Religious superiority complexes seem to be the root of much evil.

Here's another article about it replete with ongoing comments.
I'm glad I'm not the President right now.
President Dirt Face would be in the process of eating his taunting words.
NY Sun has a piece on this.

Yep!! I can just see it now. My President aiming his behind away from Mecca and bumping his head on the ground. Yes indeed! It all makes sense.
I'm not a suicidal person, but I must say that before I would accept this nutty religion I would put a .357 to my head and pull the trigger. No deal, no way!!!!!!!!!
Ahmadinejad doesn't know how to play the lefties. They were biting his obscurity, now he clarifies what he meant for Western offices.
Now how can the lefties claim Bush rejected a compromise?

Consider the WOT a rejection of your offer.

Lovely imagery, really. But that's probably mild compared to what the towelheads would do, given the chance.
Not as much an invitation as an ultimatum.
...and if Bush has any balls at all he'd answer that goat**ck with a nuclear attack!
Agreed. He's just running thru Allah's checklist for a "just" war before he gets busy.
OK.
