President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Saturday Iran was ready
to respond if attacked, but played down the prospect of war with
the United States.
Ahmadinejad was speaking during a visit to Bahrain which came
amid mounting concerns in the Gulf that the United States could
launch military action against Iran, although Washington says
it is committed to a diplomatic solution to a crisis over Tehran's
nuclear ambitions.
"We never want any war in this region, but from another
front, we have made all preparations, and if there is any suspicion
on this matter, then we are ready," said Ahmadinejad, speaking
through an interpreter.

"I want to confirm again that we don't think there will
be a war in the region," he told reporters, without giving
reasons.
Ahmadinejad earlier told Al Arabiya television that the United
States had no political, economic or military grounds for attack,
and dismissed the U.S. military as "shabby".
The West accuses Iran of trying to build a nuclear bomb, but
Iran says its nuclear ambitions are to generate electricity.
