Iran’s Khamenei: No Cure for Barbaric Israel but Annihilation

[oberliner]

Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei took to Twitter to call for the destruction of Israel over the weekend. He first started with a string of vitriolic anti-Israel tweets that called for the destruction of the “barbaric, wolflike & infanticidal regime of Israel.”

Bad translation?

False flag?


The Ayatollah's genocidal, murderous vision for Israel:

2. A Sincere question, what do you mean by translation? Was it originally not in english?

If it was in another language then who translated it?

I honestly don't know the answer.

15. Do you have knowledge of what the word genocide means?

please cut and paste the passage from hat you posted above that says Khameni plans genocide

not supporting the statement but a hyperbolic response to this isn't helpful either

[Mosby]

17. Sure

"we do not expect the usurper Zionists to easily SURRENDER..."

"powerful CONFRONTATION"

"resolute and ARMED resistance"

"resolute and ARMED confrontation"

"the West Bank should be armed like Gaza..." (like the terrorists)


I hope this clears up your confusion.

The path to a PEACEFUL resolution is via UNSCR 242, 338 and 1515.

but by all means back up the crazy theocrat of Iran, it's the progressive thing to do, supporting genocide, ethnic cleansing and fascism.

[azurnoir]

18. apparently not in fact #2 specifically states that does not mean massacring Jews in the region

but thanks for sharing your opinion

[Mosby]

27. if there is going to be a peacful plebiscite

Why would the Jews need to "surrender"

Care to address that?

Keep in mind he would only let the "good Jews" vote (yeah, sure) the bad Jews don't get to vote.

I bet some of those Jewish Zionists would like their homes and property returned to them that was taken by the Persians.

[potone]

42. You are right.

This is not a call to commit genocide but neither is it a realistic solution to the conflict. There is no way that any Israeli government would agree to such a proposal that excludes many of Israel's citizens from having a vote in the country's future, nor would the US allow such a plebiscite to take place. The Iranian government must know that this isn't going to happen; if they really care about the Palestinians they should work together with the Arab world to support a reasonable solution that would grant the Palestinians a state in return for peace. I don't see them contributing anything constructive to the process and I think that their actions are completely cynical. They need an external enemy as an excuse for the repression of their own citizens.

50. Eye opening chart you posted

Khamenei is bat shit crazy.

23. oh and this - "Liberalism dies a little every day thanks to people like you azur."

Show me specifically where I support what was said and while your comment is a personal attack I prefer it remain and be s public as possible

26. well you did say "not supporting this statement"

Funny way to say you disagree with the ayatollah but I edited my post anyway.

[shira]

25. Sure, it's in the Hamas covenant & Iran aids, abets, & arms Hamas.

Actions speak louder than words.

9. Lol yep :)

[oberliner]

11. What is the joke?

I don't understand what you are saying here.

[Mosby]

12. The joke is that they can't condem this genocidal/murderous garbage.

because it would affect their Progressive street cred.

[Scootaloo]

14. Regimes are people, my friend n/t

[shira]

16. I always hold out hope they'll do the right thing....

....by condemning this garbage and other similar incitement and hate against Jewish people.

They never do.

Guess the "zionists" have it coming...

13. so is he saying he is for eliminating Jews ala Hitler? yes no what?

[oberliner]

22. No, in fact he specifically says the opposite

Did you not actually read the article linked in the OP?

In case you didn't:

Iran definitely does not want “the massacre of the Jewish people” but rather Iran has proposed “a practical & logical mechanism” to eliminate Israel through a referendum involving “all the original people of Palestine, including Muslims, Chrsitians and Jews” anywhere in the world.

[azurnoir]

24. Have you read your own thread recently? I am having that discussion with another poster

who claims that Khamenei made genocidal threats

[hack89]

51. The Jews just have go back to where they came from

They would also not be allowed to vote in the referendum that decides their fate. And UN mediation is out of the question. Sounds like a winning plan to me.

[oberliner]

52. I wonder how Poland will handle the influx of returning Jews

It will be interesting to see how that plays out.

28. Iran supreme leader touts 9-point plan to destroy Israel

Ayatollah Khamenei says West Bank should be armed like Gaza, and Jewish population should return to countries it came from

“The Zionists should know that the next war won’t be confined to the present borders and the Mujahedeen will push them back,” he added. Naqdi claimed that much of Hamas’s arsenal, training and technical knowhow in the recent conflict with Israel was supplied by Iran.

29. Read the Likud charter, and ask yourself what Bibi should expect in response.

Bibi has also done all he could to undermine Obama and the Iran negotiations.

[King_David]

30. Well , allowing someone like this

Who makes promises like this about Israel to get a nuclear bomb is pretty scary.

He's not threatening Bibi or Likud , he's threatening all of Israel -- well all the Jews of Israel anyway .

[Jefferson23]

31. Ignore the threats and promises kept by Bibi and his cabinet to make sure there is no

Palestinian state.

[King_David]

32. This dude doesn't care about a Palestinian state

He doesn't want Jews in "the Zionist entity"

[Jefferson23]

33. There has never been one..so it's absurd to make statements like that. n/t

[shira]

34. Iran, Hamas, etc. are into Islamic Caliphates not secular states...

Iran awaits the 12th Imam who will kill all Infidels (that's all of us here at DU) in order to establish Shia Islam across the planet. That's what they're all about & it's even crazier than the Temple Mount Whackos who want to blow up Al-Aqsa and replace it with a 3rd Temple.

Really, let's allow them nukes. Lots of them.

They definitely want to fuck up all the Infidels' shit. From leftwing atheists to fundy Xtians and Jews. The Ayatollah and his loonies support Hamas and Hezbollah whose goals are to absolutely destroy Israel and kill its Jews. Not to mention millions of Muslims (see ISIS & the rest of the middle east).

Love how you wish to deflect from their genocidal intentions.

Just what I come to expect from anti-Israel progressives.

36. Khamenei's words as pointed out-Iran definitely does not want “the massacre of the Jewish people

Iran definitely does not want “the massacre of the Jewish people” but rather Iran has proposed “a practical & logical mechanism” to eliminate Israel through a referendum involving “all the original people of Palestine, including Muslims, Chrsitians and Jews” anywhere in the world.

37. Oh yes, you believe the Ayatollah now...

How cute. No way he could be lying, right?

Keep doing your worst....

[azurnoir]

38. it wasn't my comment I linked you to was it?

but please keep going in the vein your in

[shira]

39. SoS different day. You go out of your way explaining away....

...everything Israel's most hostile, backwards Jihadi enemies say and do while buying into every vicious lie and smear about Israel.

The pattern is well established. You mock Israel's whackiest extremists while siding with Israel's most vicious and hostile enemy Jihadi whackjobs dedicated to wholesale genocide, ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and gutter racism.

If there are ever 2 states you will support a Hamastan and defend it rigorously. If Israel becomes the most liberal, progressive nation on the planet you will continue to bash it daily, just like Hamas and their BDS friends promise.

I get it, no worries.

[azurnoir]

40. who's comment did I link you to? n/t

[sabbat hunter]

45. But he specificially says

none of those that emigrated there.

The original people of Palestine aka all the refugees and their children no matter where they went after 1948. Or any jews that were there pre-1948. Any Jews that came after 1948 do not get a vote.

He wants to eliminate Israel and get rid of any jews currently living there (they should go back to teh countries they were originally from).

I am guessing that if they don't leave willingly they would be forced to leave or be killed in Khamenei's world.

[azurnoir]

46. why are you addressng me? wasn't my comment

and you're free to to 'guess' anything you want as it's all figurative anyway

[sabbat hunter]

47. I had to post my response to someone in the subthread

you were as a good a person as any.

[Mosby]

48. "9 key questions about the elimination of Israel"

With a chart going over every one, don't know how much more literal one could be.

How could you possibly see his statements as metaphorical?
