Iraqi Minister Backs Iran on Nuclear Research
Iraqi Minister Backs Iran on Nuclear Research

By JOHN O'NEIL
Published: May 26, 2006
Iraq supports Iran's right to pursue nuclear research, its new foreign minister said today, taking a position at odds with that of the Bush administration.

According to news service accounts, Mr. Zebari said that Iraq does not want "any of our neighbors to have weapons of mass destruction."

But he also confirmed "the right of the republic of Iran and the right of any other state to have scientific and technological abilities to research in the field of nuclear energy for peaceful purposes."

1. This is too funny
Once again the Iraq war has come back to bite Bush in the ass.

Saddam would have never backed Iran.

3. Better get that resume ready Mr. Zebari
Your overlords in DC don't want any sympathy expressed about their next target in their march to ME hegemony.
