Ayatollah Khamenei: The Hamadan Doctrine

Photo: www.ikna.ir

On Monday, July 5th 2004 Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has laid out a new doctrine in Hamadan Iran. For years the US maintained a relationship with the Soviet Union that came to be called MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction). In simple terms if you attack us we will Nuke you. To break the peace meant risking nuclear annihilation. Now the Supreme Leader of Iran Ayatollah Khamenei has laid down a new doctrine. Attack us and face total war. Khamenei said, "the Iranian people will cut off its hand without hesitation and endanger the interests of the aggressor everywhere in the world" Instead of a nuclear exchange the US or any aggressor country will face thousands of bee stings. Israel desires that the US wage war on Iran. Not for our security but for theirs. Now Iran has clearly stated that if the US allows it's self to be used as a "cats paw" then it must face attacks on American interests anywhere in the world. We saw what airliners can do in New York City. What if those airliners were packed with the product of those Iranian centrifuges. Iran has Uranium and some level of technology. We can not risk war unless there is a compelling interest. Likud paranoia is not a compelling interest unless you are Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Perle, Feith, Ledeen, etc...

Doctrine reaffirmed Gulf Daily News - Iran to strike back if nuclear sites hit
