Tehran, Iran, Nov. 12 An ultra-Islamist ally of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad in Irans parliament told a conference of the radical Ansar-e Hezbollah group on Saturday that the issue of Irans nuclear program has become the frontline between Islam and the Heathens, referring to non-Muslims.
Nuclear capability is our religious right. We must stand up and fight for it, the Majlis deputy, Rashid Jalali, said.
Even if our [nuclear”> file is taken to the [United Nations”> Security Council we will come through it. We want nuclear energy and we must pay the price, Jalali said.
Defending the recent threatening remarks against Israel and Arab leaders by President Ahmadinejad, the Majlis deputy from Karaj said, These comments show our unambiguous position against the occupying regime in Qods (Jerusalem). We had to announce this position.
Ansar-e Hezbollah, an ultra-Islamist group, is a quasi-official organ of the clerical establishment and fiercely loyal to Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.
