TEHRAN, Iran — An Iranian Foreign Ministry official warned Sunday that Tehran would not remain passive if the West imposes sanctions on over Iran's disputed nuclear program, but did not say how it would respond.
Mohammed Ali Hosseini, spokesman for the ministry, made the comments days before a draft resolution is expected to be submitted to the United Nations Security Council calling for limited sanctions against Tehran.
"Sanctions will have an impact on both sides and will have regional and international repercussions. If they choose sanctions we will decide accordingly," Hosseini told journalists in a weekly briefing.
He did not elaborate on actions that Iran might choose in response to sanctions, however when he was asked if they could have an impact on the movement of oil through the Strait of Hormuz, through which some 20 percent of the world's supply passes every day, he replied, that "depends on the kind of sanctions."
On Friday, Iranian President* Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called the U.N. Security Council and its decisions "illegitimate," saying the world body was being used as a political tool by Iran's enemies -- the United States and Britain." Who said the Cold War was over? Remember the block party's the left was throwing when the USSR went belly-up? We could at long last dismantle our military because there'd be no one to fight. Why, out nuclear subs could be finally put to GOOD use by monitoring the whales and dolphins. Ah, but Russia has an ace in the hole with the U.N., and those two august...three if you count Iran...gatherings of lunatics. continue to make life difficult for free people the world over. Fuck Russia, plain and simple. And fuck Iran, AND the United Nitwits. Let the price of gasoline shoot to $4 a gallon, come on, we can all afford it, but the hue and cry from soccer mom's will force even the democrats into pledging payback to the moslem sand fleas who'd rule the earth because THEY happen to have most of the world's dinosaur droppings. *Pictured: Iranian President Ahmadimmerbulb inspects the troops on a recent visit to Syria.
