I think it is important to include the what the Hon. Louis Farrakhan ACTUALLY SAID in plain view:
"America can’t tell Iran they can’t develop nuclear power for peaceful purposes. International law says that Iran has that right. America wants to put up more nuclear facilities so she won’t be dependent on oil. China’s trying to do the same thing. Other nations are trying to do the same thing. You cannot deny Iran access to knowledge when God says to us go through the prophet and search for knowledge, whether it be in far off China. So if he went to China to get nuclear knowledge, he’s obeying God; and if he wants to use it for peaceful purposes, he’s obeying God.
"You’ve got the power to monitor him if he doesn’t want to use it for peaceful purposes, but you hate him because he’s an enemy of Israel."
This is in harmony with the United Nations Resolution presently under consideration:
"The UN Security Council completed Friday a draft resolution aimed at Iran's nuclear defiance, banking on threats of stricter targeted sanctions, but offering at the same time a long-term agreement on Iran's right to nuclear energy for peaceful purposes."
So, if Minister Farrakhan is "guilty" of anything, it is echoing the sentiments of the United Nations.
