Iran has the military might to deter attacks against it, Defense Minister Ali Shamkhani said, after President George W. Bush (news - web sites) said he would not rule out military force against Iran over its nuclear program. 'We are able to say that we have strength such that no country can attack us because they do not have precise information about our military capabilities due to our ability to implement flexible strategies,' the semi-official Mehr news agency quoted Shamkhani as saying on January 18, 2005.
