Tehran (dpa) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Saturday that the Palestinians and “other nations” will eventually remove Israel from the region
“We ask the West to remove what they created sixty years ago and if they do not listen to our recommendations, then the Palestinian nation and other nations will eventually do this for them,” Ahmadinejad said in a ceremony marking the 27th anniversary of the Islamic revolution.
According to state media, hundreds of thousands of people came into the streets to show their solidarity with the government over pursuing the country’s nuclear programmes and voice their protest against publication of cartoons deemed insulting to the Prophet Mohammed.
While chanting “Death to America”, “Death of Israel” and “Nuclear energy is our undisputable right”, the crowd walked toward the Azadi (Freedom) Square in Tehran where Ahmadinejad held his annual speech.
Psa 83:1-18
(1) A Song or Psalm of Asaph. Keep not thou silence, O God: hold not thy peace, and be not still, O God.
(2) For, lo, thine enemies make a tumult: and they that hate thee have lifted up the head.
(3) They have taken crafty counsel against thy people, and consulted against thy hidden ones.
(4) They have said, Come, and let us cut them off from being a nation; that the name of Israel may be no more in remembrance.
(5) For they have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee:
(6) The tabernacles of Edom, and the Ishmaelites; of Moab, and the Hagarenes;
(7) Gebal, and Ammon, and Amalek; the Philistines with the inhabitants of Tyre;
(8) Assur also is joined with them: they have helped the children of Lot. Selah.
(9) Do unto them as unto the Midianites; as to Sisera, as to Jabin, at the brook of Kison:
(10) Which perished at Endor: they became as dung for the earth.
(11) Make their nobles like Oreb, and like Zeeb: yea, all their princes as Zebah, and as Zalmunna:
(12) Who said, Let us take to ourselves the houses of God in possession.
(13) O my God, make them like a wheel; as the stubble before the wind.
(14) As the fire burneth a wood, and as the flame setteth the mountains on fire;
(15) So persecute them with thy tempest, and make them afraid with thy storm.
(16) Fill their faces with shame; that they may seek thy name, O LORD.
(17) Let them be confounded and troubled forever; yea, let them be put to shame, and perish:
(18) That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
