Ahmadinejad questions
whether Zionists are human beings.
Iranian
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad found new rhetorical
excesses today in excoriating Israel – calling its people
"a bunch of bloodthirsty savages."
"They know no
limitations or boundaries at all any more for killing
people," he said, according to a report in Deutsche
Presse-Agentur. "Are these people still human beings or
just a bunch of bloodthirsty savages?"
His speech was
delivered in Bojnourd, in northeastern Iran, carried live
by the news network Khabar.
"They have made all
notorious criminals in the world get a good reputation
again," he added.
Ahmadinejad held both
the U.S. and Britain responsible for the Israeli attacks
in Lebanon.
"(Hezbollah leader
Hassan) Nasrallah is acting on behalf of all free-minded
world nations and he will in the near future gain final
victory," Ahmadinejad said.
Ahmadinejad warned once
again that if the United Nations Security Council did not
stop the conflict, the people would take the initiative
"like a wild ocean, and create a judgment day for all
those involved."
The Iranian president
last week predicted that "the final days of the Zionist
regime have come," and accused Israel of killing innocent
civilians after failing to defeat Hezbollah.
Previously Ahmadinejad
threatened to "wipe Israel off the map." He has denied the
Holocaust and suggested Israel be moved to Europe.
