UN Secretary General urges Tehran to convince "international community" on its nuclear drive, while ignoring US declared nuclear threat against Iran.
Ban Ki-moon accused Tehran of not satisfying international concerns over the peaceful nature of its nuclear program, as he welcomed the planned participation of Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad at the upcoming UN meeting to review the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) next Monday in New York, according to a Wednesday report in the major US daily The New York Times.
While expressing optimism for President Ahmadinejad to offer constructive proposals in resolving Iran's nuclear issue at the meeting, Ban commended recent US-Russia agreement to reduce a small part of their vast nuclear arsenals describing it as a model for the rest of the world.
[Mr. Ban is a naive fool. A moral idiot. How can Iran demonstrate it's peaceful desires? One way I can think of - change governments, expel Amindinejad and the mullahs. Short of that, every other statement made by a government official in Iran is about bombing someone, blowing Israel up or wiping it out. Hard to think peace when they are so ... not peaceful. You are a bloody fool Mr. Ban, and the UN fits you very well.]
The Obama administration recently crafted the Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), under which the US commits to not using nuclear weapons against any NPT member states that do not possess nuclear warheads, with the exception of Iran and North Korea.
The NPR was met with instant condemnation in Iran, which has been a signatory of the NPT since 1968 and has repeatedly insisted on the need for global elimination of all nuclear weapons.
Nevertheless, the US nuclear threat against two UN members, on the backdrop of using the mass-destructive weapon against two Japanese cities, did not grab the attention of the UN Secretary General.
Non-nuclear states believe nuclear capable world powers use the treaty to keep their club exclusive, while the peaceful use of nuclear technology is the right of all nations.
Iran says its nuclear program is totally peaceful and subjected to unlimited extraordinary inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency, which has found no deviation in Iran's civilian nuclear program.
