Israel should be "wiped off the map": Iran president
Agence France-Presse | October 26, 2005

Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Wednesday openly called for Israel to be "wiped off the map".

"The establishment of the Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world," the president told a conference in Tehran entitled 'The World without Zionism'.

"The skirmishes in the occupied land are part of a war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in Palestinian land," he said.

"As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map," said Ahmadinejad, referring to Iran's revolutionary leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini.

His comments were the first time in years that such a high-ranking Iranian official has called for Israel's eradication, even though such slogans are still regularly used at regime rallies.

Anyone who allows Iran to develop nukes, has the power to stop it, and does not stop it is an imbecile and an idiot.

Think Osirak.
