Follow God or vanish, Ahmadinejad tells West

Dec 06 5:14 AM US/Eastern

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has warned Western leaders to
follow the path of God or "vanish from the face of the earth".
"These oppressive countries are angry with us ... a nation that on the
other side of the globe has risen up and proved the shallowness of
their power," Ahmadinejad said in a speech in the northern town of
Ramsar, the semi-official news agency Mehr reported Wednesday.



"They are angry with our nation. But we tell them 'so be it and die
from this anger'. Rest assured that if you do not respond to the divine
call, you will die soon and vanish from the face of the earth," he
said.

The outspoken president also maintained Iran's defiance over its
controversial nuclear program, saying it was on course to fully master
nuclear technology.

"Thank to God's help, we have gone all the way and are only one step
away from the zenith.

"We hope to have the big nuclear celebration by the end of the year
(March 2007)," Ahmadinejad said, echoing comments he has made on
numerous occasions in recent months.

A defiant Iran has refused to suspend its uranium enrichment work, a
process that the West fears could be extended to make nuclear weapons.

Iran however insists its nuclear program is solely aimed at generating
energy.

France's Foreign Minister Philippe Douste-Blazy said Wednesday after a
Paris meeting on Tehran's nuclear programme that the UN Security
Council is agreed "there will be sanctions" on Iran, though their
extent is yet to be decided.
