World powers won't thwart Iran nuclear drive - Ahmadinejad
NATANZ (Thomson Financial) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Monday vowed that world powers would not be able to stop Iran's nuclear drive, saying the atomic programme was on its way to the 'summit.'
'The great Iranian nation, which for past centuries has been a pioneer of science, will not allow some bullying powers to put obstacles in its path of progress by influencing the international community,' he said in a speech.
'We will go on to reach the summits,' he added in a keynote speech at Iran's ultra-sensitive uranium enrichment plant in Natanz.
'Today... this country has joined the countries that produce nuclear fuel on an industrial scale,'
said Ahmadinejad, confirming an earlier announcement by Iran's atomic energy chief.
The president did not disclose how many centrifuges Iran had now installed at the Natanz plant.
Ahmadinejad also warned that Iran would 'reconsider its behaviour' if it was provoked by world powers. He did not go into further detail.
'Our nation has until this day moved on a peaceful path, observing laws created by the world powers, and it is interested in continuing along this path.
'But they should take care not to do something that makes Iran reconsider its behaviour, as the Iranian nation is capable of doing so,' he said.
'We recommend to them that they had better respect nations' rights.'

Let's never forget that Iran is not worst than many countries who do have the nuclear weapon. Israel is a criminal state, Pakistan is a dictatorial state, even in USA we are not sure who won in 2000. We have no lessons to give.
Israel is a criminal state because?!?
Iran has stated openly that it wants Israel wiped off the face of the earth, exactly which other nation in the world has said it would do that, that wants or has nuclear weapons?!?
