US root of global terror

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says he has ‘documented evidence’ that Washington and Israel are linked to leading terrorist organizations in the world.

“We have documents that prove [Washington] is the root of world terrorism. It has been aiding and abetting extremist groups over the past years,” said President Ahmadinejad in a Saturday ceremony marking World Labor Day.

He added the commotion caused by the US in some parts of the world shows in fact that US officials are up to no good in that exact location and should be held responsible.

“Washington is the only country to have used the atomic bomb in military conflict. They even admit themselves that they resorted to using [similar weapons] during the war they waged on Iraq,” he added.

Ahmadinejad said despite its seamy past, the United States continues to threaten world nations with its nuclear weapons.

He was referring to the newly-crafted Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), under which the Obama administration promises not to use atomic arms against states that do not possess nuclear warheads, with the exception of Iran.
