The Iranian nation has never been intimidated by such a language of threat and it would bring these intoxicated and arrogant powers to their knees through wisdom and prudence, the Leader added.‏

Ayatollah Khamenei termed the stance adopted by the US and its allies on Iran`s nuclear issue as a clear example of their bullying policies. "Those countries tell us you should not have nuclear technology because we don`t trust you. Those who tell us these words waged two world wars and resorted to military force wherever they could. Their atrocities in Hiroshima, Iraq, Afghanistan, Palestine and Kosovo exemplify their manner and performance. "‏

Ayatollah Khamenei reiterated that Iran has never started a military aggression since the Islamic Revolution.‏

The Leader said Iran should become a scientific pole in the world, reiterating that the Iranian nation would use its scientific achievements to serve humanity.‏

Ayatollah Khamenei described science as an integral part of power adding, "The US and some Western countries use their scientific capabilities as a means to exert pressure on other countries. Therefore, we should also resist them using science. "‏

"That`s why I have emphasized the importance of a scientific movement in recent years," the Leader concluded.‏
