LONDON (FNA) - Guardian revealed that the opposition of British Foreign Secretary Jacks Straw to a military action against Tehran caused him to resign.

The London-based daily Guardian in its Sunday edition wrote: Straw had repeatedly said that carrying out a military operation against Iran was unimaginable and the reports that US President George W. Bush is considering a military option against Iran's nuclear facilities is nonsense.

According to Guardian, Straw had kept opposing the military option to the point that he announced he would resign if a military action against Iran became a reality.

Following the resounding defeat of the Labor Party in the British local elections on Thursday, British Prime Minister Tony Blair was forced on Friday to reshuffle his Cabinet and removed Jack Straw from the post of Foreign Secretary.
