More of the same from Ahmadinehad:
Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad launched a fresh verbal attack on Israel on Thursday by describing “Zionists” as the “most detested people” on the planet.With Israel attacking both Lebanon and the Gaza Strip over the killing and capture of Israeli soldiers by militants, Iran’s top national security official Ali Larijani also told Palestinian militants they would have the Islamic republic’s “decisive support”.
“The Zionists and their protectors are the most detested people in all of humanity, and the hatred is increasing every day,” the president was quoted as saying by Iranian state television.
“The worse their crimes, the quicker they will fall,” added Ahmadinejad, who has already called for the Jewish state to be “wiped off the map” and relocated as far away as Alaska.
And now we hear that Hezbollah is trying to move Kidnapped Israeli soldiers, Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, to Iran:
Israel has information that Hizbullah guerrillas who captured two Israeli soldiers are trying to transfer them to Iran, Foreign Ministry spokesman Mark Regev said.
Regev did not disclose the source of his information.
When are we going to acknowledge Iran’s declaration of war? They’re quite frank about their intentions but we (we being those theoritically opposed to the batshit crazy and evil radical Islamic segment of humanity) continue to pretend that war is avoidable when it clearly isn’t.
