israeli deputy prime minister: Iran never called to wipe out Israel

[bud]

language experts have repeatedly asserted that ahmadinejad has never said 'israel should be wiped out', however, this misquotation, or mistranslation continues to be used by those who want find any excuse to paint iran as a reckless and aggressive country and thus try to justify an attack on iran.

Minister of Intelligence and Atomic Energy Dan Meridor told Al Jazeera that Iran never vowed to "wipe Israel off the map," as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has repeatedly claimed.

Speaking to the Arab network, Meridor, who also serves as deputy PM, said Iran's leaders "all come basically ideologically, religiously with the statement that Israel is an unnatural creature, it will not survive." However, he added, "They didn't say 'we'll wipe it out,' but (rather) 'it will not survive, it is a cancerous tumor, it should be removed'. They repeatedly said 'Israel is not legitimate, it should not exist'."

That's synonymous with saying Israel should be wiped out. Does one, in a surgery, not seek to wipe out a cancer?

The horse is dead. Several Iranians have strongly implied that Jews and Israel should be eradicated even by nuke if necessary. Now those quotes have been posted here ad nauseum. When Israel appears as Israel on Arab-Persian maps there just may be some support for your trolling.

of course there is a difference. because in one instance, the misquotation is about wiping out a country and the other is about removing a regime. from the article:

In 2005 Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying that Israel should be "wiped off the map," but it was later revealed that the translation of his remarks, published by media outlets around the world, was incorrect. Ahmadinejad was actually quoting the leader of the 1979 Islamic revolution: "The Imam said this regime occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time."

there is a reason why you didn't post the link to the actual quote, because there is no link to this alleged quote.

you tried this before and managed to find an article to some site that pretended to be a news outlet and now this.

you are so blatantly dishonest that you might as well come out and tell everyone that you will go to any length to help your team win. why can't you be an honest person?

RAFSANJANI SAYS MUSLIMS SHOULD USE NUCLEAR WEAPON AGAINST ISRAEL

TEHRAN 14 Dec 2001. (IPS) One of Iran’s most influential ruling cleric called Friday on the Muslim states to use nuclear weapon against Israel, assuring them that while such an attack would annihilate Israel, it would cost them "damages only".

"If a day comes when the world of Islam is duly equipped with the arms Israel has in possession, the strategy of colonialism would face a stalemate because application of an atomic bomb would not leave any thing in Israel but the same thing would just produce damages in the Muslim world", Ayatollah Ali Akbar Hashemi-Rafsanjani told the crowd at the traditional Friday prayers in Tehran.

lols.

way to try to give yourself credibility by starting the post out with CNN!

lets examine the information you have presented:

http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-757632

this 'ireport' page gives us nothing from CNN, but only the following link:

http://www.iran-press-service.com/articles_2001/dec_2001/rafsanjani_nuke_threats_141201.htm

which you, one of the most dishonest posters on here, have posted before, and i called you on. the web site www.iran-press-service.com goes to, not a news outlet. it has no credibility, just like you have no credibility.

i mean really? even after posting this bogus link once before and being called on it, you do it again? have you no shame? will you go to any length to cheer for your team?

the rest of the crap you posted:

Ali Abd Al-Fattah, Muslim Brotherhood Leader in Egypt:

do you need a geography lesson on where iran and egypt are?

Ahmadinejad: Israel Is a "Dead Fish" and a "Stinking Corpse"; "The Zionist Regime Will Be Wiped out"; "The European Governments Do Not Want the Zionists Living in Europe"

yes? and? ahmadinejad has said 'the zionist regime' many times. how does this prove any of your lies? it actually confirms the truth that ahmadinejad has pointed to the 'zionist regime'.

'K', deal. When Iran openly states Israel's right to exist or when Arab maps show Israel, or when blood libel stops, the protocols are not stated as fact or when the UN shows no bias....whichever comes...ever.

Since you seem to be a maven on drunks and loud mouths, I defer to you. On other subjects...not so much.

Ok so your impression is that Iran wants Israel to live long and prosper, who'd a thunk it.

[bud]

iran's stance on israel's legitimacy is a red herring. israel needs to accept a palestinian state as according to international law instead of dragging its feet while annexing more palestinian land.

increase of illegal israeli settlements on palestinian land is not self defense. it's colonization and land theft.

No, the medical fields are all about mitigating and treating the cancer, never quite getting rid of it. You always hear about cancer treatment, never hear about cancer prevention. But saying this would classify me as an anti-semite.

Nice subtle move you made to follow up radiation. Well, it's suggested perhaps only as a potential final solution..

[bud]

they talk about moving the cancerous 'regime'. it's true, if we want to move towards peace, the hawkish right wing israeli government needs to be removed. this is a regime that has vowed to never allow a palestinian state.

Go for it, would make it easier to put in a new engine, which I think I need.
