Should the UN slap Iran with sanctions over its disputed nuclear program,
leading members of Iran's establishment have hinted that drugs could be used as a weapon against Europe.Is that one of those famous 'threats' that President Ahmadinejad accuses the west of illegally making? Ahh, the sweet sound of hypocrisy.
"Should Europe continue to defy the Islamic Republic, Iran could favour drug trafficking towards Europe, obviously not through its territory, but for example by sea," said the chief prosecutor, quoted by Resalat.
A few days earlier, online newspaper Roozonline quoted Iranian drug-control chief Fada-Hussein Maleki as claiming that Tehran "could remove all current obstacles on drug trafficking from Afghanistan towards Europe and inundate the West with drugs."
