Must Read all the way, top to bottom =============================== ISRAEL, not Iran has been calling to "wipe Iran off the map" all along!
It is a sad state of affairs and very ugly indeed when things have to be fabricated or made up to make others appear evil and even genocidal, when in truth they are not. The truth is Ahmadinejad never said "wipe Israel off the map". That phrase is an invention by MEMRI - the neocons propaganda tool that mistranslates articles written in the Middle East and demonizes Arabs and Islam. The "wipe off the map" statement, attributed to Iran, provides Jews another opportunity to go on a self pitying, persecution campaign as they are doing now to justify attacking Iran. It is a bold faced lie like so many others they have told in the past. What Ahmadinejad did say was to repeat Khomeini's statement about regime change in Israel similar to what happened in South Africa. It was not a genocidal statement like these lying, self pitying, desperate for world sympathy Jews have been pushing. But it was a statement reflecting a change in government providing justice to all unlike the racist, barbaric Jewish regime ruling over the Palestinians today. But let's look at Jewish actions against Iran like in the following article: Boxer, AIPAC lead efforts to cut off Iranian exports http://www.jewishsf.com/content/2-0-/module/displaystory/story_id/2592/edition_id/44/format/html/displaystory.html When do you think this article was written? Recently? No, it was written in December, 1995!!! It was published long before Amadinejad was elected president and before Iran announced it was interested in developing nuclear energy. In effect, the Israeli Lobby had declared its own war on Iran long before the current situation. Read the article to see how vehement AIPAC was even back then in seeking Iran's destruction. A big fuss is being made in main stream media about Iran wanting to "wipe Israel off the map". In any discussion about Iran that point is brought up over and over again to show the "Hitler" qualities of Iran that must be checked by a nuclear attack from the U.S. But the reality is that it is a bold faced lie. The Israeli government has been calling for the extermination of Iran publicly numerous times for many years now. Did anyone make a fuss about that? Here are just a few examples (and I can list many more) taken from headlines of articles calling for Iran's extermination by Israel, before anything was said about Israel by Iran: November 5, 2002 "Times/UK" "Attack Iran the day Iraq war ends", demands Israel! By Stephen Farrell, Robert Thomson and Danielle Haas http://www.commondreams.org/headlines02/1105-02.htm September 30, 2004 "The Insider" Israel Instructs America To Attack Iran And Syria http://www.theinsider.org/news/ article.asp? id=0614 March 16, 2005 "U.S. Crusade" Israel's Broken Record - Attack Iran By Kurt Nimmo http://www.uscrusade.com/index. php?blog= 3&cat=16 February 6, 2005 "WhatReallyHappened " U.S. - Israel Plans To Strike Iran's Nuclear Sites Finalized http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/archives/week_2005_02_06.html June 14, 2005 "The NewYork Sun" SPY CASE REVEALS ISRAELI PLOT TO PLANT IRAN WMD DATA BY ELI LAKE - Staff Reporter of the Sun http://www.libertyforum.org/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=news_news&Number=293703877&page=&view=&sb=&o=&vc=1&t=-1#Post293703877 Dec 5, 2005 "MichNews" Netanyahu: "If elected, I won't hesitate to order a pre-emptive strike on Iran" By Ryan Jones, JNewsWire.com http://www.michnews.com/artman/publish/article_10634.shtml Now, imagine if Iran had been saying those things about Israel? Today's demonization of Iran claiming that Ahmadinejad denies the Holocaust, Iran's pursuit for nuclear weapons and their desire to "wipe Israel off the map" is a ploy, an excuse presented to non-Jews to give Israel the justification for what they have been wanting to do all along. For the record the following is what Iran's president said. Compare it to what Israel has been saying about Iran for many years now, as in the articles above, and judge for your self which statements are more genocidal: Quote: --------------------------- The Actual Quote: So what did Ahmadinejad actually say? To quote his exact words in Farsi: "Imam ghoft een rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods bayad az safheh-ye ruzgar mahv shavad." That passage will mean nothing to most people, but one word might ring a bell: rezhim-e. It is the word "regime." pronounced just like the English word with an extra "eh" sound at the end. Ahmadinejad did not refer to Israel the country or Israel the land mass, but the Israeli regime. This is a vastly significant distinction, as one cannot wipe a regime off the map. Ahmadinejad does not even refer to Israel by name, he instead uses the specific phrase "rezhim-e ishghalgar-e qods" (regime occupying Jerusalem). So this raises the question.. what exactly did he want "wiped from the map"? The answer is: nothing. That's because the word "map" was never used. The Persian word for map, "nagsheh" is not contained anywhere in his original Farsi quote, or, for that matter, anywhere in his entire speech. Nor was the western phrase "wipe out" ever said. Yet we are led to believe that Iran's president threatened to "wipe Israel off the map." despite never having uttered the words "map." "wipe out" or even "Israel."
