We Will Not Allow US to Dominate Iran: Imam Khamenei

Imam Khamenei: We Will Not Allow US to Dominate Iran

Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei said on Wednesday that Tehran will not allow the United States to dominate the Islamic republic, taking another swipe at US President Barack Obama's "nuclear threat."

"Nobody should dare to threaten humanity this way. We will not allow the US to impose its infernal domination on Iran again with these threats," Imam Khamenei said, quoted by Fars news agency. His eminence said the international community should react on Obama, referring to a new US nuclear policy which bars the use of nuclear weapons but singles out Iran and North Korea as "exceptions."

Obama's "nuclear threat marked a black spot in that government's record," said Iran's leader, whose country has interpreted the US policy as tantamount to a threat of nuclear attack.
