TEHRAN,Nov 5 (Agencies): Iran dismissed the possibility of a US military strike against the country Monday and said Tehran was ready to consider a new round of talks with Washington on security in Iraq. Concerns have been mounting in recent months that the United States might attack to prevent Iran from developing atomic bombs. The US has said it is trying to resolve its disputes with Iran diplomatically but also says it has not ruled out any options.
"The region is not ready to tolerate a new crisis and the United States is not able to plan it, too," Mohammad Ali Hosseini, Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesman, told reporters during his weekly press briefing.
"However, the Islamic Republic of Iran will consider any weak possibility (of an attack)," he added.
