UN chief Ban Ki-moon has said he was "shocked and dismayed" at recent comments by Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad about Israel.

Iran's official news agency reported Mr Ahmadinejad saying that the world would soon see Israel's destruction.

He said the war between Israel and Hezbollah in 2006 showed for the first time Israel's weakness.

The Iranian leader is a trenchant critic of Israel and has said the Holocaust of European Jewry is a myth.

“We condemn these comments in the harshest language possible. Our sternly worded letters will blot out the sun, and will inflict potentially half-dozens of paper cuts. And then we will convene a meeting with turd-world dictators to vote on exactly how outraged we should be. Cocktails to follow.”

“sticks and stones
will break my bones,

but names—and UN “action”—
will never hurt me.”

...The Iranian leader is a trenchant critic of Israel...

trenchant \TREN-chunt\, adjective:
1. Characterized by or full of force and vigor; as, “a trenchant analysis.”
2. Caustic; biting; severe; as, “trenchant criticism.”
3. Distinct; clear-cut; clearly or sharply defined.

I guess by the BBC’s standards, Hitler was a “trenchant” critic of the Jews.

>>>UN condemns Ahmadinejad comments<<<

Isn't the UN so wonderfully effective? This "act globally" thing really works.

It is a whiz at collecting statistics, as long as somebody else does the measuring and hands 'em over.

Hey, I tried...
