Ahmadinejad: Iran tests represent only a small part of its defences

Jul 13, 2008, 10:57 GMT

Tehran - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the missiles tested during a military manoeuvre earlier this week by Iran's Revolutionary Guards were 'just a small part of Iran's military strength' adding that in the future, as he reiterated warnings of a military response to any outside attack. The country would expose more of its' military capabilities 'if necessary,' Ahmadinejad said. 'The manoeuvres demonstrated both Iran's military power and empty threats by the enemies,' Ahmadinejad said after a cabinet session in Tehran, warning that 'our military forces will cut the hand of the enemies before they even squeeze the trigger.' Ahmadinejad also rejected reports citing defence and photography experts that one picture of last Wednesday's missile tests was altered and that there should have been only three instead of the four missiles shown by Iran.
