Ahmadinejad: Even Hell cannot stop us now

March 16, 2007

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad heaped scorn on the international community on Thursday over its feeble attempts to halt Iran's nuclear program.

The five permanent members of the UN Security Council plus Germany finally agreed on Thursday on a package of additional sanctions to impose on the Islamic Republic in light of its continued defiance.

Those measures will reportedly include a ban on Iranian military exports and freezing the assets of additional individuals and companies tied to Iran's nuclear program.

Speaking to his own state-run media, Ahmadinejad scoffed at the agreement and the Security Council resolution it will form the basis of, noting that Iran is already capable of maintaining its nuclear cycle without outside assistance.

What are you seeking to prevent [Iran] from achieving? Today, the Iranian nation fully possesses the nuclear fuel cycle. If all of you gather and also invite your ancestors from hell, you will not be able to stop the Iranian nation.

Israeli leaders have sharply criticized the international community for failing to take strong enough measures to stop Iran before it was too late.

Many now expect that Iran will obtain nuclear weapons barring military intervention by either Israel or the US.
