Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called for the eradication of Israel as he addressed the United Nations anti-racism conference which opened its week long event in Geneva on Monday.
As he spoke, some 23 EU delegates were seen walking out the room when Ahmadinejad said Israel was created on the "pretext of Jewish suffering" from World War II.
Ahmadinejad began his speech by pointing the finger at the United States, Europe and Israel and said they were destabilizing the entire world. "Those in authority at the time set off two world wars," Ahmadinejad said, in an accusation directed at Western powers. He went on to accuse those powers of "killing hundred of millions of people and causing mass destruction" also in Africa and Asia.
Ahmadinejad then went on to criticize the UN: "The Security Council set up after World War II, let's analyze it. The veto vote - is that equality? Is that justice? Is that equality amongst human beings?" he asked, "Or rather is it arrogance and humiliation? The Security Council must be the most important body for decision-making in order to promote peace. If a law is based on force, how can we secure peace and justice? The seeking of power and arrogance means racism, injustice and occupation."
At this point the Iranian president's speech moved to the subject of Israel and the Palestinians.
"As was the case after World War II, armies occupied other territories and people were transferred from territories. In reality, under the pretext of compensating for the evil done in the name of xenophobia, they in fact set up the most violent xenophobes, in Palestine."
"The Security Council made it possible for that illegitimate government to be set up. For 60 years, this government was supported by the world. Many Western countries say they are fighting racism; but in fact support it with occupation, bombings and crimes such as those committed in Gaza. These countries support the criminals," Ahmadinejad said.
Just as Ahmadinejad took the podium at the opening of the international anti-racism conference in Geneva on Monday, two men in multi-colored clown wigs stood up from both sides of the conference hall and tried to reach the podium. One of the men threw a soft red object at Ahmadinejad.
He was immediately escorted out of the hall by security personnel. In his opening remarks, Ahmadinejad called the man "ignorant."
Calls from the balcony were heard throughout the speech.
Still, the majority of the delegates greeted the Iranian president with a round of applause.
Ahmadinejad also blamed Israel for America's invasion of Iraq, which he said benefited Israeli arms sales.
He spoke to the UN assembly on the eve of Holocaust Memorial Day, which commemorates the slaughter of six million Jews by the Nazis during World War II.
I have a question, though. Does anybody have access to the full text of A's speech? Did he pray for the return of the Mahdi?
“Still, the majority of the delegates greeted the Iranian president with a round of applause.”

Stinky got some pie in his face. Too bad most libs agree with him.
Only 23???? That is sad
Ummmm.....pot calling the kettle black?
I am sure madame Clinton gave him a standing O.
From what I could tell from the YT vid....I thought other delegates were applauding those in the walkout. I could be completely wrong.
Really.......150 grains of hot searing lead through his head would suffice.
If you'd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Why wasn’t he covered in spit as they walked by! LOL.
I'm sure he wants you to read it.
Oh my gosh....has the world gone UPSIDE DOWN????
"If a law is based on force, how can we secure peace and justice?"IOW, time to ban shariah, along with Islam itself.
No, the European socialists that American liberals seek to emulate.
If they were applauding those walking out, why didn’t they follow them?
