If, and more likely when action is taken against Iran’s nuclear weapons program, these words by the Iranian President should be remembered (from the AP):

“There is no doubt that the new wave (of attacks) in Palestine will wipe off this stigma (Israel) from the face of the Islamic world,” Ahmadinejad told students Wednesday during a Tehran conference called “The World without Zionism.”

“Anybody who recognizes Israel will burn in the fire of the Islamic nation’s fury, any (Islamic leader) who recognizes the Zionist regime means he is acknowledging the surrender and defeat of the Islamic world,” Ahmadinejad said.

Ahmadinejad also repeated the words of the founder of Iran’s Islamic revolution, Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, who called for the destruction of Israel.

“As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map,” said Ahmadinejad, who came to power in August.

Of-course this sentiment is hardly anything new, but the brazen-ness of making such statements while the “international community” is considering what to do about Iran’s nuclear program is something to note.

Facing an enemy who publicly calls for your extermination, and is clearly setting about achieving the ability to implement it, what is the logical and sane response?

Well, the chances are against it and the odds are slim
That he’ll live by the rules that the world makes for him,
‘Cause there’s a noose at his neck and a gun at his back
And a license to kill him is given out to every maniac.

…

Addendum: And that “new wave of attacks” that the terrorist President of Iran just mentioned continues today with more murder at a market in Israel.
