A local deputy from Switzerland’s populist Geneva Citizens’ Movement (MCG) was excluded from the regional party on Friday for supporting Israel’s destruction, AFP reports.

Denis Menoud wrote on his Facebook page Tuesday that following Iran’s historic nuclear deal with the West, “the key thing is that Israel is on the path to being incinerated.” …

Menoud, who later deleted the post from the page, told the Swiss newspaper Tribune de Genève his remarks had been taken out of context.

“The point was the agreement with Iran… Israel is the loser, strategically and politically, from this plan. Anything else is a toxic and abusive interpretation,” he said, according to AFP. …

Doesnt seem out of context to me. I dont see how you can interpret “The key thing is Israel is on its way to being incinerated” any other way, certainly if you are talking about nuclear weapons.

Ah, always “out of context”.

It often is. In fact, if he really does oppose the agreement, it almost certainly was.

How about “The key thing (to understand about the agreement) is Israel is on its way to being incinerated”

Also probably out of context:

How Obama referred to Tea Party protesters as ‘tea-baggers’ in handwritten letter
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3096192/posts

along with “if you like your doctor, you can keep your doctor, if you like your health care plan, you can keep your health care plan.”
