Iran does not need military coalition http://www.voltairenet.org/article164777.html

Iranian blogger Kourosh Ziabari is asking for what reason his country, which has already been through a long and devastating war at the hands of Iraq, should continue to put up with an embargo and the persistent threats of the United States. In passing, he reminds us that Imam Khomeini had forbidden the use of missiles against enemy civilian populations - a moral condemnation that was strictly adhered to at the cost of heavy losses and which today’s Iran scrupulously respects by refusing to manufacture the atomic weapon.
