Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Wednesday that
U.S. President George W. Bush's era "has come to an end" and he has
failed in his goals to attack Iran and stop its nuclear program.
Ahmadinejad, addressing thousands of people in this central Iranian
city, also described the U.S.
president as "wicked."
"This wicked man desires to harm the Iranian nation.
(Bush) made plans, moved into Afghanistan and then Iraq, and announced
that Iran was the third target," he said.
"I tell him (Bush) ... your era has come to an end.
With the grace of God, you won't be able to harm even one centimeter
of the sacred land of Iran," he said.
Bush on Wednesday repeated his stance that no options were ruled
out in trying to get Iran to drop its nuclear ambitions. At a joint
news conference with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, he said "my
first choice is to solve this diplomatically, but all options are on
the table."
Bush, who has just seven months left in office before stepping down
as president, attended his final U.S.-European Union summit of his
presidency Tuesday.
He said he won European promises to tighten pressure on Tehran with
U.N. sanctions and possibly other new penalties.
Ahmadinejad said pressures and sanctions won't succeed in forcing
Iran to halt its uranium enrichment program.
"In the past two-three years, they employed all their might, resorted
to propaganda ... and sanctions. If the enemy thinks they can break
the Iranian nation with pressure, they are wrong ... With God's help,
today we have achieved victory and the enemies cannot do a damned
thing," he said, the AP reports.
The U.S. and some of its allies accuse Iran of seeking a nuclear
bomb. Iran has rejected the charges saying its nuclear program is
aimed at generating electricity not a weapon.
The U.N. Security Council has imposed three sets of limited sanctions
against Iran for refusing to halt uranium enrichment, a technology
that can be used to produce nuclear fuel or materials for bomb.
Iran has not only continued enriching uranium but has expanded its
uranium enrichment program, installing more centrifuges used to
enrich uranium.
