DUBAI (Al Arabiya)

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said he has documented evidence that the United States is doing what it can to prevent the coming of the Mahdi, the Imam that Muslims believe will be ultimate savior of mankind, press reports said Monday.

"We have documented proof that they [U.S.] believe that a descendant of the prophet of Islam will raise in these parts [Middle East] and he will dry the roots of all injustice in the world," the hard-line president said, addressing an audience of families of those killed during the 1980's war against Iraq.

"They have devised all these plans to prevent the coming of the Hidden Imam because they know that the Iranian nation is the one that will prepare the grounds for his coming and will be the supporters of his rule."

Iranian news website Tabnak said Ahmadinejad further revealed plots by both the East and the West to wipe out the Islamic Republic.

"They have planned to annihilate Iran. This is why all policymakers and analysts believe Iran is the true winner in the Middle East," he went on to proclaim, adding that they were after Iranian oil and other natural resources.

"In Afghanistan, they are caught like an animal in a quagmire. But instead of pulling their troops out to save themselves, they are deploying more soldiers. Even if they stay in Afghanistan for another 50 years they will be forced to leave with disgrace -- because this is a historical experience."

The president said on his last visit to New York he asked officials "Is there not one sane person in your country to tell you these things?"

"They know themselves that they need Iran in the Middle East, but because of their arrogance they do not want to accept this reality. They are nothing without the Iranian nation and all their rhetoric is because they don't want to appear weak," he added.

Hee hee!  That's just as funny as our messianic tards.

this part, however, is fairy accurate.

Dead on the nuts, I'd say.

Yep.  US Middle East policy since '79 has been looking for someone to play the role of the Shah.  Iraq and Saudi Arabia have been considered for the role, and failed miserably.

What's really strange is that Israel, Iran and the US cooperate with each other a hell of a lot more than they let on.  Oh sure, it started with Iran-Contra, but its only really been the last couple of years this triangle has really broken down.
