If those are the only states against which Ahmadinejad plans to seek revenge, Obama can breathe easy. "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad warns of revenge on pro-democracy states," by Damien McElroy for the [1] Telegraph, June 30 (thanks to James):
Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has warned the regime would seek revenge against states it has accused of fanning pro-democracy demonstrations in the wake of its disputed election.Mr Ahmadinejad used the attack on Western powers send a defiant message in his first public comments since his controversial re-election was upheld by the electoral authorities on Monday. He said: "We must use all the capacities to break the monopoly of the global powers."
But the British Foreign Secretary was anxious to play the dhimmi anyway:
Despite the ominous tone from Tehran, David Miliband, the Foreign Secretary, raised hopes that the two sides could bring a crisis over the arrest of Iranian employees of the British Embassy. After two conversations with Manouchehr Mottaki, his Iranian counterpart, Mr Miliband said he was hopeful of a swift resolution. He said: "I have discussed this issue with Iranian Foreign Minister Mottaki and we both agreed in our second telephone conversation yesterday that a swift resolution was in both of our interests."..."Those who asked for the annulment of 10th presidential election are anti-revolutionary and against the regime," hardline cleric Ahmad Khatami told the official news agency IRNA. "If anyone said there was fraud in the election, he has lied and committed a sin," [sic}
Committed a sin.
