What Iranian Leaders Really Say about Doing Away with Israel: A Refutation of the Campaign to Excuse Ahmadinejad’s Incitement to Genocide

[jerusalemjudy]

Ahmadinejad Was Not Mistranslated

By Joshua Teitelbaum

• Over the past several years, Iranian leaders – most prominently, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad – have made numerous statements calling for the destruction of Israel and the Jewish people. While certain experts have interpreted these statements to be simple expressions of dissatisfaction with the current Israeli government and its policies, in reality, the intent behind Ahmadinejad’s language and that of others is clear.

• What emerges from a comprehensive analysis of what Ahmadinejad actually said – and how it has been interpreted in Iran – is that the Iranian president was not just calling for “regime change” in Jerusalem, but rather the actual physical destruction of the State of Israel. When Ahmadinejad punctuates his speech with “Death to Israel” (marg bar Esraiil), this is no longer open to various interpretations.

• A common motif of genocide incitement is the dehumanization of the target population. The Nazi weekly Der Stürmer portrayed Jews as parasites and locusts. Ahmadinejad said in a speech on October 26, 2005: “In the Middle East, they [the global powers] have created a black and filthy microbe called the Zionist regime.”

• Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who succeeded Ayatollah Khomeini in 1989, has made statements about Israel similar to Ahmadinejad. On December 15, 2000, he declared on Iranian TV: “Iran’s position, which was first expressed by the Imam [Khomeini] and stated several times by those responsible, is that the cancerous tumor called Israel must be uprooted from the region.”

• Michael Axworthy, who served as the Head of the Iran Section of Britain’s Foreign and Commonwealth Office, notes that when the slogan “Israel must be wiped off the map” appeared “draped over missiles in military parades, that meaning was pretty clear.”

• There is an ample legal basis for the prosecution of Ahmadinejad in the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court for direct and public incitement to commit genocide and crimes against humanity.

Duh. It takes "comprehensive analysis" to come to the conclusion the nut job wants to destroy Israel? How much more blatantly obvious must he be? Sad to say, but unless something is done about the soon to be Iranian nuclear problem, we are going to experience Ezekiel 38-39 in our lifetimes.

Duh, the Iranian Hitler wants to destroy the USA too. It’s the human waste in DC that don’t understand that we’re next on Iran’s hit list right after Israel.

The muddled minds of DC truly have no clue!

A thought, about America's future:

If Obama and the extreme Liberals get a total hold on our government, America's preeminence on the world will not last. This country now has Judges Legislating from the bench, allowing too many rights and there is also too much wealth in Public Offices. There is not enough sacrifice, and way too much selfishness.

Civilizations that have made their mark did so through brutal dedication or great self-sacrifice by the populace, and more often by both. After the Iranians are done with Israel they will take us down with the help of the numb-nutz in DC. Then the Chinese will become the next sole superpower.

on this thread, to bookmark. I noticed it had not received much attention. This will come in handy in the weeks ahead, if the scenario in the Middle East goes in the direction many of us expect it will.

I have seen an Islamic Iranian blogger that comments on most blogs (by searching whoever mentions “Ahmadinejad”) with some kind of a Re-Writing method the Islamic - Hitler words...

You are absolutely right. The prophecies of Ezekiel may well be close at hand. The prophecies of Chapter 37 have come to pass. If it all is in a designed sequence as layed out in the Bible... we may well see this very soon. Better read it and get ready. God’s clock is ticking again.

Thanks for the post. I have been helping get the word out on several conservative Republicans running in primary elections around the country and so I haven’t had the time to read much of what’s been posted over here.

I agree that the dynamics of the Middle East are such that the lunatic that runs Iran may get his wish for a war with Israel at any moment.
