US and Iran escalate war of words


Iran's president has compared his US counterpart, Barack Obama, to predecessor George Bush
in an escalation of the war of words between Tehran and Washington.
"Why do you speak so impolitely with this great nation?" Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said at a
petrochemical complex's inauguration ceremony in south Iran on Thursday.
He said in the speech broadcast on Iranian state television: "I hope you will avoid interfering in
Iran's affairs.
"This is our friendly advice; we don't want to see the big disgraces of the Bush era to be repeated
in the new US era."
