Tehran - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday that Israel would "be soon swept away" from the Palestinian Territories by the Palestinians. It is the second time within less than three years that the Iranian president predicted the eradication of the Jewish state.
The first time was in 2005 when Ahmadinejad hoped that Israel would be eradicated from the Middle East map.
"This terrorist and criminal state is backed by foreign powers, but this regime would soon be swept away by the Palestinians," Ahmadinejad said in a press conference in Tehran.
Referring to worldwide celebrations for the 60th anniversary of Israel's foundation, he said that "it would be futile to hold a birthday ceremony for something which is already dead."
"As far as the regional countries are concerned, this regime does not exist," Ahmadinejad added.
The Iranian president said last week that the anniversary feasts could not save this "rotten and stinking corpse."
Ahmadinejad caused international outrage in the past by hoping for the eradication of Israel, the relocation of the Jewish state to Europe or Alaska and questioning the historic dimensions of the Holocaust.
Israel would not “drag us into” defending them against the invading hordes. We would do it without coercion, and I would hope under a Republican administration, as we are an honorable people who would not sit by and allow the only democracy in the ME, not to mention ally of America, and a tiny one at that, be overrun and its people slaughtered by crazed headchoppers. But I won’t presume to speak for you.
She wears the pants for sure.....
And Ears will tell Amadjihad, ‘the UN is going to write a letter to you telling you how angry they are’.
Hey,seanmerc, this qualifies as cruel and unusual punishment even for MA
This fruitcake seems unaware that Iran, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Syria and Jordan were all created by the superpower winners of WW1 and WW2, none of which was a muslim country.
Time to state the obvious one more time:
If you can be "created", you can just as easily be "uncreated".
Why this simple truism evades both the West (apparently) as well as the delusional umma simply baffles me.
Sorry to have to beat you with the reality stick, but the Middle East is NOT the "world's oil supply".
Liberals, socialists and the Bugs and Bunny crowd is determined to maintain an oil crisis in the US regardless of what happens elsewhere.
If we're headed there anyway, and the Middle East is a sea of glass, I don't see a difference.
