Ahmadinejad's Ranting About Israel

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's tirade against Israel Friday vowed to abolish Israel. He doesn't deny the Holocaust now, he just questions the scale of it. He said Israel is using the Holocaust as a reason for the "genocide" against Palestinians.

Quds Day is the day of Palestinian remembrance of their fight against Israel. It is also being commemorated in Iran. On this day Ahmadinejad blasted Israel's policies and the USA's polices against his nuclear program. Tens of thousands of Iranians marched through Tehran Friday in solidarity with the Palestinians chanting "Death to Israel". Ahmadinejad followed this up with a public call for the entire population of Israel to be deported to Alaska or Canada. He stated that Israel is an "insult to human dignity."

This takes place about two weeks after his visit to the USA where he defended his questions about the Holocaust's existence. This ranting certainly makes it a reality that if he has nuclear weapons, he will use them on Israel.
