Iran anniversary punch will stun the west according to Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. He claims that Iran is set to deliver a “punch” that will stun world powers during this week’s 31st anniversary of the Islamic revolution. Not exactly new news to followers of this site. We first reported Iran’s President Ahmadinejad making the same threat a week ago, here
According to today’s reports:
“The Iranian nation, with its unity and God’s grace, will punch the arrogance (Western powers) on the 22nd of Bahman (February 11) in a way that will leave them stunned,” Khamenei, who is also Iran’s commander-in-chief, told a gathering of air force personnel.
The country's top cleric was marking the occasion when Iran's air force gave its support to revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, a key event which led to the toppling of the US-backed shah on February 11, 1979.
His comments came as Iran said it would begin to produce higher enriched uranium from Tuesday, in defiance of Western powers trying to ensure the country’s nuclear drive is peaceful.
This year’s anniversary is expected to become a flashpoint between security forces and supporters of opposition leaders Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mehdi Karroubi, who charge that the June re-election of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was rigged.

President Ahmadinejad threats against the United States and other Western powers will be his undoing. Ahmadinejad doesn’t appreciate the military force Western Powers will invoke against his regime once they believe they are dangerously threatened. The more Ahmadinejad threatens, the sooner the world will support and justify his forced removal.
Well said, Wolf!
My comment is not on any of the above, but on the proposal that we buy a national park in the Virgin Island for millions of dollars. This is outrageously spent tax dollars when other existing national park services are being cut and neglected. Are our leaders really this stupid? Who are the owners of this land to be purchased? Could it be a relative or a supporter of the Obama campaign fund? Or?????
Put him in the care of his 72 virgins!
I don’t see anything nuke related, but I do see them taking hostages from western embassies in Tehran.
I believe the time has come for a new Vacation Destination, Lake Iran. I am sure Dubai would be happy to build a few resorts on the clean and newly sterilized sand. Airfares each way only $ 49, Book Now !
The Ayatollah Khamemei and Admadinejad need to be neutralized. Our government should have taken care of this problem years ago. It is a problem that will not go away with sanctions, sanctions will only aggravate the problem. They will eventually start a war with the west through Israel. God help us all.
