Iran Threatens U.S. With ‘Harm and Pain’
Tehran ratchets up the war of words with the U.S. over American-led action to bring Iran before the U.N. Security Council for possible sanctions against its nuclear program. We're being threatened by the country Bush didn't invade and whose surrogates we put in power in Iraq.Washington Post
:
Iran warned today that the United States could suffer “harm and pain” if the United Nations Security Council imposes sanctions over Iran’s nuclear program.
Iran delivered the warning at a meeting in Vienna of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s governing board. The 35-member board convened to consider an IAEA report that concluded, after three years of inspections, that the existence of “undeclared nuclear materials or activities in Iran” could not be ruled out.
