Tehran, Iran, Jun. 02 – A senior Iranian cleric accused the United States on Friday of being the greatest threat to the world’s security.

“If the world wants to identify the government which is the most important threat to world security, that government in the U.S.”, Ahmad Khatami told worshippers during Friday prayers in Tehran. His remarks were aired live on state television.

Khatami accused the United States of having launched or indirectly taken part in military attacks on 25 states over the past 50 years. “If this is not insecurity, then what is?” he said.

He said that drunk American drivers were responsible for the deaths of the “people of Afghanistan” and that protests by Afghans had been violently suppressed.

U.S. President George W. Bush’s popularity rating had dropped to 29 percent, he added.
