Iranian Leader Questions U.S. Disclosure of Nuclear Arsenal

And day two of the big U.N. NPT Get down in New York , and Iranian Pres, Ahmadinejad , Is still talking his B.S. and really trying to make a point !

Well at least he heard one of our points !

We have at LEAST 5,113 More Nukes than Iran does !


Foxnews
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Tuesday questioned the veracity of Pentagon's disclosure on Monday that the U.S. has 5,113 nuclear warheads in its stockpile and "several thousand" more retired warheads awaiting the junkpile.

"Perhaps there should be an independent body to verify what the U.S. government declares," he said at a news conference.

"If the U.S. government expects everyone to trust what it says, it is unfair for the U.S. to not trust what others say," he said.

Ahmadinejad, who is in New York for the state of a monthlong conference reviewing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, again denied accusations that Iran is trying to build a nuclear bomb -- a denial aimed at undermining growing momentum for a new round of Security Council sanctions.

Ahmadinejad said Iran can withstand another round of sanctions and the pressure from the U.S. and its allies. He also said Iran would not withdraw from the Non-Proliferation Treaty like North Korea has done.

Presstv

The United States has finally issued visas for Iranian delegates scheduled to attend next week's United Nations nuclear disarmament conference in New York.

The last-minute issuance came on Saturday, after officials in Tehran condemned Washington's delay in conferring visas to several members of Iran's delegation.

Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki had warned the US administration against taking the Unites Nations hostage.

"Issuing visas for officials from different countries to participate in UN assemblies is an obligation for US authorities not a prerogative,” he said earlier on Saturday.

Explaining the possible reasons behind the delay in the US decision, Iran's Foreign Ministry Spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said Washington preferred the Iranian team not to take part in the conference.

UH , You Think!

Q+A: Debates surrounding U.N. anti-nuclear arms pact


Analysts do not expect a major overhaul of the treaty at the meeting but hope for better results than in 2005 when procedural wrangling by the United States, Egypt and Iran led to failure.


My Prediction ... Another Failure !

With Iran And Egypt already joining forces against the U.S. and Israel , And The man from Iran Mahmoud Ahmadinejad , Coming (Maybe) to New York , to speak out about whatever he Wants !
and that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton , Speaking in opposition to him , I doubt they will get anything but more Hatred accomplished


(Reuters) - A month-long meeting of 189 countries to assess a 40-year-old global treaty against nuclear arms starts in New York on Monday.

Here are some of the main issues surrounding the Non-Proliferation Treaty, which calls on nuclear weapon states to reduce their arsenals and for countries without atomic arms to eschew developing them.

WHAT IS THE AIM OF THE CONFERENCE?

Members of the NPT, forged during the Cold War, review the pact every five years to assess progress toward its goals and look at ways to improve it. Ideally a final declaration, agreed by consensus, should lay out steps for the next five years.

For the West, the atomic programs of Iran and North Korea have shaken the foundations of the treaty, while some countries argue that the failure of big powers to disarm has dented its credibility.

Analysts do not expect a major overhaul of the treaty at the meeting but hope for better results than in 2005 when procedural wrangling by the United States, Egypt and Iran led to failure.
