Iran's army chief says by accusing the Islamic Republic of
pursuing a military nuclear program the US government is
seeking to escalate its military spending budget.

Speaking on Friday, Iran's chief of Joint Armed Forces Major
General Hassan Firouzabadi linked the economic downturn in
the United States to the government's high military
spending.

"While the financial crisis caused by high military spending
and flawed domineering decisions has broken the back of a
major group of people in the US, certain advisers and
members of Congress are busy propagandizing about Iran's
nuclear program," Maj. Gen. Firouzabadi said.

The Iranian army chief added that through spreading such
rumors about Iran and its nuclear program the US aims to
increase its military budget again.

Addressing US statesmen and people, Firouzabadi said "Iran's
nuclear technology is peaceful and does not have any
military objectives."

The Iranian commander described putting an end to wars and
making use of the US military budget for other purposes as
the only solution for resolving the crisis in America.

The remarks came as the Department of Labor announced on
Friday that the United States economy shed 190,000 jobs in
October, while the unemployment rate crept to a 26-year high
standing at 10.2 percent.

"It is in the best interest of Americans to use the strength
of their youth and national assets to save their nation,"
Firouzabadi said.

A government, of Israel, by Israel, and, for: Israel.
But all things that are reproved are made manifest by the light:
for whatsoever doth make manifest is light. The light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not. The light of the body is the eye:
if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light.
But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness.
If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is that darkness!
Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from the dead,
and Christ shall give thee light. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
