Iran's President Says Israel Must Be 'Wiped Off the Map'

By NAZILA FATHI

Published: October 26, 2005

TEHRAN, Oct. 26 - Iran's new hard-line president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, told a group of students at an anti-Israel event today that Israel must be "wiped off the map" and that attacks by Palestinians will destroy it, the Iranian student news agency, ISNA, reported.

Iran's new president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, told a group of students at an anti-Israel event today that Israel must be "wiped off the map"

He was speaking to an audience of about 4,000 student at a program called The World without Zionism, in preparation for an annual anti-Israel demonstration held on the last Friday of the holy month of Ramadan.

[...]

"The establishment of Zionist regime was a move by the world oppressor against the Islamic world," Mr. Ahmadinejad said, the news agency reported. "The skirmishes in the occupied land are part of the war of destiny. The outcome of hundreds of years of war will be defined in Palestinian land."

Referring to comments by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the leader of the Islamic revolution, Mr. Admadinejad said, "As the imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map."

[...]

"Anybody who recognizes Israel will burn in the fire of the Islamic nation's fury," Mr. Ahmadinejad said. Any Islamic leader "who recognizes the Zionist regime means he is acknowledging the surrender and defeat of the Islamic world."

...oh, and the article says the French have asked the Iranian ambassador for an "explanation." Yes, I can see how "wiped off the map" could be considered vague.

It is my belief that if there is any wiping off the map to be done, Israel will be doing it. I have to give these Islamic turds one thing they can make up the damndest threats you ever heard, "Burning in the fire of the Islamic nations fury", Bwahahaha. Iran is long overdue for an attitude adjustment.The Palestinians are a band of brigands no one ,even the other Islamics want. It would be like giving a country to an insane asylum. . When you think about it thats pretty much what Iran and Syria are, Countries made up of looney's.

If Israel is smart, they'd take a YOU FIRST approach.

I have a great idea! Iran should join up with Russia, Ethiopia, Turkey and Libya, and go sweeping into Israel. After all, it's a land of unwalled villages, whose people are at rest without bars or gates and take a spoil, take a prey and...
Oh sorry, that was Ezekiel 38:10-12
nevermind...

In the world of glorious martyrdom, once a "virgin" has been de-throcked, umm....what does the former virgin do?

And in the wacky world of Mooslim jihadists, is there a special fabricating facility devoted to building beguiling virgins in the after-life?

It's a burning question, given the fact that, in hell, these jihadists must have some really hot chicks waiting.
