TEHRAN, Iran - The president of Iran again lashed out at Israel on Friday and said it was "heading toward annihilation," just days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it successfully enriched uranium for the first time.
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel a "permanent threat" to the Middle East that will "soon" be liberated. He also appeared to again question whether the Holocaust really happened.
"Like it or not, the Zionist regime is heading toward annihilation," Ahmadinejad said at the opening of a conference in support of the Palestinians. "The Zionist regime is a rotten, dried tree that will be eliminated by one storm."
Ahmadinejad provoked a world outcry in October when he said Israel should be "wiped off the map."
On Friday, he repeated his previous line on the Holocaust, saying: "If such a disaster is true, why should the people of this region pay the price? Why does the Palestinian nation have to be suppressed and have its land occupied?"
The land of Palestine, he said, referring to the British mandated territory that includes all of Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, "will be freed soon."
He did not say how this would be achieved, but insisted to the audience of at least 900 people: "Believe that Palestine will be freed soon."
"The existence of this (Israeli) regime is a permanent threat" to the Middle East, he added. "Its existence has harmed the dignity of Islamic nations."
The three-day conference on Palestine is being attended by officials of Hamas, the ruling party in the Palestinian territories.
Iran has previously said it will give money to the Palestinian Authority to make up for the withdrawal of donations by Western nations who object to Hamas' refusal to recognize Israel and renounce violence. But no figure has been published.
On Tuesday, Ahmadinejad announced that Iran had successfully enriched uranium using a battery of 164 centrifuges, a significant step toward the large-scale production of enriched uranium required for either fueling nuclear reactors or making nuclear weapons.
The United States, France and Israel accuse Iran of using a civilian nuclear program to secretly build a weapon. Iran denies this, saying its program is confined to generating electricity.
The U.N. Security Council has given Iran until April 28 to cease enrichment. But Iran has rejected the demand.
The chief of Israeli military intelligence, Maj. Gen. Amos Yadlin, was quoted Wednesday as saying Iran could develop a nuclear bomb "within three years, by the end of the decade."
Its sad to hear that the holy land of Israel and surrounding areas will soon be wiped out by a nuclear bomb. I cant believe this.
I doubt it, Israel holds sites that are just as sacred to Muslims as they are to Christians and Jews. Which is why the Mussys want it so much.
...start on one side, end on the other, no survivors...
I think Ahmedinijackass is just trying to egg Israel into an attack.
Make no mistake, they will when they are convinced the point of no return WRT their safety has been crossed. Until then this dude's just a lot of hot air.
The Final Solution 2..
So are we gonna sit on our ass again while he builds a nuke to bring a 2nd holo?
Idiot. He's obviously too young to remember '48, '56, '67, and '73, all Arab asskickings. It's the reason they blow themselves up now. They can't engage in a stand up fight and be anything other than horribly embarrassed.
The nukes will change nothing other than the scope of the fight. Be assured that any nuclear attack on Israel will be met with like destruction of the offending country, any other countries they think helped or colluded, and maybe a nuke tossed at Mecca and Medina just for good measure.
While they may be destroyed, Israel will not be defeated and they will not go away.
Excellent points Ex. I would like to include that the only reason Iran or any other Muslim nation in the ME feels they need nukes is because Israel is sitting on a cache of about 600 or so nuclear warheads. It is this imbalance in power in the region that drives other countries to clandestinely develop nuclear weapons. I don’t think it reasonable to expect Israel to destroy its weapons, or even account for its own clandestine program to the UN, but I’m just wondering in what situation Israel would use these weapons anyway?While they may be destroyed, Israel will not be defeated and they will not go away.
The more I hear Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad makes these ridiculous statements to the western press, the more I am convinced that this psycho wants us to attack his country. He is the anti-GW…he thinks if we attack the Shiite and other Islamic religious and radical groups will turn against the Americans, not only in Iran and Iraq, but also world-wide through asymmetrical warfare. They will launch not only another direct front to W’s war in Iran and Iraq, but world-wide through terror. No place will be safe.
More importantly, he sees Iran as a testing ground for expensive military toys he’s been stocking up from Russia and China, including reportedly, the Sunburn and other advanced missile systems being developed to defeat the new American Navy defense system and close the strait, choking America’s and the west oil habit or Middle Eastern oil . He sees little chance the U.S. will launch a ground war to unseat him, perhaps foolishly, because he was democratically elected, and the people of Iran wouldn’t stand for an American occupation like in Iraq in Iran.
He is also hoping that when the U.S. acts unilaterally, without U.N. sanctions or authorization, which neither China nor Russia would allow, without even its long-time ally Great Britain, the rest of the world comes to see the U.S. as a imperialist power who can no longer be trusted to play by the rules.
Which is why the CIA should take his regime out with a virus...
Nah, there are thousands of Ahmadinejads in Iran. Young people in Iran are largely moderate, many even resent the ayatollah's continued dominance over aspect of their lives. Left alone, in time, Iran would likely develop into the Middle East's first true democracy. The trouble is, is that Iran is largely answerable to no one - they aren't locked into any monetary system and the cash from oil allows them to buy la' creme of weapons systems available on the world market. Left alone, and with Iraq no longer around to threaten its borders, Iran would develop into a regional military power.
We are talking low yield nukes. Iran would be at least 10 years away from a hydrogen bomb.
What they are close to making is something like Hiroshima yield. Which requires only a couple lbs of refined heavys. The plans how to build it are well known since the Russians purchased them via spy's. Pakistan (kahn) has already given them the basic plans for a big boy style bomb.
You could put that in a van or one of Iran's civilian Fokker 100's and deliver it.
Anyway you could wipe out Tel Aviv without blowing up Bethlaham.
Edit add... like if ALL the arab people start leaving a big jewish city in masses... I would get real worried lol. (They might tell the muslims to get out before it glows).

Another thing.. Hey where the is Britain going.. Blair get back here..
UK is the one that under league of nations first supported the startup of waves of migrants to Arab lands. Now they want to run after that WWI, WWII and now Iran wanting to nuke them?
Stick with what you start.. either we are doing to defend them or not...
I've been saying this for months, but you're too busy spewing the hate to comprehend. He's basically prodding the hornet's nest with a stick of words and hoping he can elicit a response.the more I am convinced that this psycho wants us to attack his country.

Why not Jerusalem?
If Iran wanted to attack Israel with WMD's, then why havent they just loaded up some of those missiles with chemical or biological weapons? Oh yeah, because Israel would blow them off the face of the earth.
Well people [i]could survive a chem/bio attack. There's so much that's got to be right, from the winds to the weather to the location of deployment to actually having the weapon aerosolized correctly.
You don't have to get all that right with a nuke, just get it somewhere in the vicinity and pull the trigger.
You would think that any immenent threat by Iran would be more cause for alarm in the UK and the parts of Europe already in the range of Iran's missiles. The fact that Europe isn't too concerned yet shows that they feel that Iran's bark is still worse than it's likely bite. Not that they favor the U.S. going into Iran and stirring the hornet's nest in the whole region.
The whole point of using WMDs, well, besides the killing, is to cause as much terror as possible, the reason we dropped the bombs on Japan, for example, was to scare the out of the people, and in this, chemical/biological weapons can be quite effective. Just as there continues to be a MAD agreement between the U.S. and Russia, there is also a MAD agreement between countries like Iran and Israel.
