Bill Clinton opposed to assault on Iran

Press TV: Former US President Bill Clinton says he believes military action against Iran over its nuclear energy program is not the right course of action to take.
In an interview with CNN on Monday, Clinton said he thinks Iranians will all become alienated and oppose the West if military action is taken against the country.
He also raised the possibility that the decision to impose sanctions on Iran may not lead to any concrete results.
He went on to say that Iran was the only country in the world where the people voted six times during his presidency, adding that Iranians elected the most progressive president twice.
Clinton's comments contradict earlier statements by US officials that Iranians are not given the right to freely elect their president.
While the US possesses and has used nuclear weapons in the past, Washington, in a politically-motivated move, has imposed unilateral sanctions on Iran, which does not possess nuclear weapons and does not seek to produce such weapons.
In addition, the International Atomic Energy Agency has conducted numerous inspections of Iran's nuclear facilities and has never discovered evidence of diversion.

There are huge numbers of people in the west who would oppose the idea of any attack on Iran. That does not we agree with everything that Iran is doing, just that building trust between countries cannot be done by bombs
