Teheran (dpa) - The government of President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called on Iranians Thursday ``to riot against Zionists (Israel) and unbelievers'' in nationwide demonstrations planned for Friday.

In a statement carried by the ISNA news agency, Ahmadinejad's government said that the demonstrations should be a clear reply to the ``crimes by Israel against the Palestinian nation'' in the last five decades in the ``Moslems' holiest venue'' - Jerusalem.

``The flame of the Intifada (uprising) in Palestine is shining more than ever on the way to liberating residents of the prophets' land (Jerusalem), and has already caused humiliating defeats for the Zionists such as the forceful retreat from the Gaza Strip,'' the statement said.

Since the 1979 Islamic revolution, late spiritual leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini had ordered the annual holding of the Qods (Jerusalem) Day demonstrations in Teheran and all other Iranian provincial capitals on the last Friday of the Ramadan fasting month.

Khomeini had also designated Ramadan as a month of solidarity for the Palestinian nation and against Israel's occupation of Jerusalem, where the Al-Aqsa Mosque is located.

Iranian leaders have since regularly held state-organised demonstrations to show Iran's uncompromising stance against the Israeli state.

This year's demonstrations have been marked by Ahmadinejad's remarks expressing the hope that Khomeini's prediction of Israel's eradication from the Islamic world would come true thRough a ``new wave'' of Palestinian anti-Israeli fighters.

Past time for Iran to 'be gone'. . .

This guy is quickly arranging himself a date with a daisy cutter. ;)

Time to unleash the hogs of war.

[Dr. Bogus Pachysandra]

Now I think that I know why there was a suicide bombing in Israel. Force the Israelis to retaliate on the day the "mass riot" is called. Inflame the idiots even more!

Time to unleash the hogs of war.

Paging Hogzilla...

[lexington minuteman 1775]

So who do we go after first Iran with it's nuke threat or Syria for being behind the assassination of Lebanese Prime minister?

[wotan]

``to riot against Zionists (Israel) and unbelievers''

Does this mean Iran regards Zionists as believers? Otherwise he could just have said "to riot against unbelievers".

May the glow of the nuclear mushroom light the way for the martyrs.

Given their stance on their nuclear weapons program we are going to see something fairly horrible take place in the next three years. I would be the farm that Iran will be corrected while Bush is still in office.

I have wondered about our shift in accelerating the hand off to the Iraqis possibly being a prelude to the Iranians getting a lethal dose of munitions.

[bubman]

I was more partial to a beach invasion. Hell the boys would get to the iraqui border by noon anyways!!

[rod1]

So Jerusalem is more Holy to Islam than Mecca?? Did I read that statement correctly?

[NativeNewYorker]

You can't expect raving nutters to be consistent.
