to make it easy for the zionists
to demonize Iran?

Well, for example recently he made it point to say that Iran had 3000 spinning centrifuges when the IAEA had just released a report saying that the centrifuges were fewer. (and also were not working that well?)

Also a little while back he said something like "the countdown to Israel's destruction has begun."

Why can't he keep quiet and get the bomb done first?

and why anyone in his right mind would need devastating weapons like nuclear and biological. Sick and unjust people promote military solution to injustice that plaques this world. We don't need bombs we need truth and morals that will show Divine light and hope for mankind.
Haven't too many died already with "bomb" solutions to our problems. Even if he got one on the plate how can he ever use it in his neighboring Palestine. One bomb can irradiate Europe, ME and half of Asia so how can this horrible weapon be a solution to anything. More weapons and military buildup just increases mutual distrust between goyim nations. We should be talking about disarmament and not proliferation of WMDs. WMDs are evil and utterly immoral weapons as they kill indiscriminately and they should be banned and dismantled everywhere. Nobody is afraid of Iranian "bomb" they are afraid and disgusted with his antizionist supremacy stance. This is the bomb they fear most. Revolution of thought and intellectual uprising is what we need not another bloodshed.

Traveller, your attitude about the immorality of nuclear weapons is valid. But others do rationally regard them as instruments of deterrence. Just like gun ownership, but on a larger scale.

I would view an Iranian desire for nuclear weapons as understandable.

To give another example of Ahmadinejad's provocative statements: While there may be lots of reasons to believe that the official holocaust story is a zionist fraud, it is the best time for him to be bringing it up?

Ahjamadinejad never said he wanted a nuclear bomb. He said it was against Iranian Islamic faith, Khameni made a fatwah.
The centrifuges are working in low enrichment mode, they cannot produce bomb material.And he never said they could.

The countdown comment was in a speech where he was talking about the destruction of Zionism from within, from it´s own corruption.

He as said many times that Iran was not going to attack Israel unless attacked by Israel or the US first.

He also said that Iran does not need an atomic weapon for deterrence. Iran could defend itself in other ways.

Whoa, I didn't say Ahmadinejad said he wanted a bomb. I just said it would be understandable if the Iranians did want a bomb. The Zionists are not about to give up their bombs any time soon.

Traveler: "and why anyone in his right mind would need devastating weapons like nuclear and biological. Sick and unjust people promote military solution to injustice that plaques this world. We don't need bombs we need truth and morals that will show Divine light and hope for mankind.

Yes they have.

And everything else you said, I agree.

KK:"To give another example of Ahmadinejad's provocative statements: While there may be lots of reasons to believe that the official holocaust story is a zionist fraud, it is the best time for him to be bringing it up?"

I understand your point about provocative remarks but lets look at that from the other angle. Iran is enemy to Zionists even if they don't have nuclear program at all and plans for attacking Iran and the rest of Muslim countries is drawn long time ago by the Zionist devils. Now if you know that you will be executed wouldn't you prefer to scream to public who and why your enemies are set on destroying you and your nation. He is saying things that very few in a world dare to say openly while many agree with him regarding Zionist conspiracy to blame everybody for holocaust in order for them to have freedom to perpetrate 60 year long holocaust of Palestinians. You think that Brush, Bliar or other pawn in the west would ever dare to say why so many western and eastern human beings have been sacrificed?! Don't think so. Yes he is bold enough to touch on taboo topic out of contempt for Zionist global oppression because he has nothing to lose. He and his nation are condemned long time ago and he speaks in protest while he still can before his media apparatus is bombed to ashes. He is exposing world corruption and its main perpetrators not much different that we and other on net are doing but his word has much more publicity in mainstream media than ours collectively will ever have. I hope its clear to you now what he does is necessary and why he has to do it before bombs start raining over his country.
