US seeking to terrorise the world: Rafsanjani Updated on 3/11/2002 1:41:09 PM TEHRAN (NNI): The US intends to create an atmosphere of terror in the world and achieve its goals by causing trouble for world governments under various pretexts, former Iranian President Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani said here Sunday."Given the widespread presence of US troops and those of its allies in every targeted point of the world, the American policy is definitely to cause terror," he told a meeting of police commanders. "American efforts are directed at instigating opposition groups in other countries and creating trouble for their governments under the pretexts of democracy, human rights and freedom for masses," Rafsanjani added. Security for citizens will be threatened in such an atmosphere and 'violent and adventurous gangs' will be encouraged, said Rafsanjani, who is the head of the arbitrative Expediency Council. Rafsanjani pointed to a report published in the daily Los Angeles Times that 'the US Administration has ordered its Defense Department to prepare plans to use nuclear weapons against at least seven countries' including Iran, reports IRNA. "This shows that America is taking its threats against the world seriously," Rafsanjani said. Los Angeles Times has cited classified Pentagon reports as saying that the US Administration had singled out Russia, China, Iran, Iraq, North Korea, Syria and Libya for nuclear attacks. "America thinks that if a military threat looms large over the head of these seven countries, they will give up their logical demands," Rafsanjani said. The Iranian official further criticized US performance in Afghanistan in the course of its military blitz to smoke out suspected terrorists. "It was expected that poppy cultivation and production of heroin as well as drug trafficking will end with the ouster of Taliban. But, no effort has been made by the US in this respect," Rafsanjani said. "America has always supported drug trafficking mafia and operations relating to immoral acts as well as the establishment of shadowy intelligence networks. "The White House as well has been home to cartels involved in the sale of oil and weapons and has never been after upholding human objectives," Rafsanjani said. Tehran has strongly condemned US President George W. Bush's lumping of Iran as part of an 'axis of evil' along with Iraq and North Korea. Tehran and Washington have had no diplomatic relations after the 1979 Islamic Revolution, when the Students Following the Line of Imam took over the American embassy, known as the 'den of spies', in Tehran. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
