Ahmadinejad says US behind 9/11 attack
Fri, Sep 24 12:55 PM
In a remark that sparked outrage in the US, Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad has said that some segments within the US government orchestrated
the 9/11 attack to reverse the declining American economy.
The Iranian President told a UN meeting that most people believe the US
government staged the 9/11 attacks.
There was a theory that "some segments within the US government orchestrated
the
attack to reverse the declining American economy and its grips on the Middle
East, in order also to save the Zionist regime," Ahmadinejad said, sparking a
US
delegation led Western walkout in the UN General Assembly.
"The majority of the American people as well as other nations and politicians
agree with this view," he added.
Ahmadinejad then urged the UN to carry out an investigation that would
determine
what happened on 9/11.
"It is proposed that the United Nations set up an independent fact-finding
group
for the event of September 11 so that in the future expressing views about it
is
not forbidden," he said yesterday.
He also accused the US for using 9/11 to start wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, as
well as bullying Iran about its nuclear programme while maintaining it own
nuclear weapons.
The Iranian President, however, indicated that Tehran would be ready for talks
on its nuclear programme if they were premised on "justice and respect."
He also touched on the recent controversy involving a Florida pastor who wanted
to burn the Quran on the ninth anniversary of 9/11 but eventually didn't carry
out the plan.
"Very recently the world witnessed the ugly and inhumane act of burning the
holy
Quran," Ahmadinejad said.
Holding the Quran and Bible in his hands, he said, "On behalf of the Iranian
nation I pay respect to all Divine books and their followers."
"This is the Quran and this is the Bible. I pay respect to both of them," he
said.
In a statement, US Mission spokesman Mark Kornblau said, "Rather than
representing the aspirations and goodwill of the Iranian people Mr. Ahmadinejad
has yet again chosen to spout vile conspiracy theories and anti-Semitic slurs
that are as abhorrent and delusional as they are predictable."
