TEHRAN (FNA)- Senior Iranian parliamentary sources revealed on Saturday that the Swiss envoy to Tehran has quoted US President Barack Obama as acknowledging Iran's 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 Parliament's 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 Iran's 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 didn't 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."
Iran's 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 Iran's 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.

Oh goody a nuclear arms race in the middle east.
Nice.
I’m afraid that this is very likely true, since I don’t think the Iranians would venture to lie about what the Swiss envoy told them.
Also, I wouldn’t be inclined to believe what our enemies tell us, but Fars is probably a much more accurate source than the NY Times.
Don’t look for the media to report this story any time soon. No one but Drudge, and maybe Rush.
After January, Obama won’t be approving anything.
He will be vacationing on his own money.
I know he will be safe in Hawaii an will not need more than 3 Secret service Agents. At least that is how many I would give him.
I bet the Saudis are beginning to think their little investment backfired.
IMHO...That's what the Crowley Obama "terror" love fest was about.
He acknowledges Iran’s rights to nuclear technology. But not the American people’s rights to nuclear technology.
On the other hand, with the Iranian Mullahs, we've got a bunch of sociopath rulers who have NO PROBLEM with driving children before their troops to "detect" land mines, and have said that in order to destroy Israel, they have no problem with losing hundreds of millions of muslims. According to them, it would be a fair trade-off.

Hopefully this is the last experiment in a black muslim president of America with all the fine qualities.. bitter black, anti colonial, anti western ... all the fine things that should embody and personify the ideal anti president of America!
No doubt 0' found this right in the Constitution, so felt justified in doing this.
Not exactly sure where, probably on one of the paper edges next to abortion and contraception.
I suppose we will be afforded the opportunity to see how well Ron Paul’s approach to foreign policy works.
I hope to see the day that we vote in our first black Republican president, Condi, or Allen West. I would have loved to have Herman Cain as our president but I doubt he would ever run again. But then maybe it could be someone like Mia Love someday.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
We must keep talking to ANY person we know of who is going to vote for Obama. Send them these three videos and ask them to watch and reply.
I don't know how ANY American could listen to these interviews and then STILL vote for Obama!
