    Yep.. they need to rejoin the international community as good citizens instead of belligerents.

    Destabilizing Bahrain and continuing to support the al Houthis in Yemen is a big mistake.

    Please provide evidence to support these claims.

    Because after 2,000 years of persecutions, pogroms, expulsions, holocausts, inquisitions (in no particular order) when a mad leader of a fanatical regime threatens to wipe the jews off face of the earth (or erase them from the page of time if you prefer) they should immediately realize that he is just kidding. Right?

    A canard that you keep repeating....You are a propaganda sponge. Again, he was talking about Zionism as an ideology, not Israel as a land mass.

    You know about Hamas and Hezbollah.. The Houthis leader had been warm and friendly with Iran's Ayatolla for decades before his recent death and they use Iranian weapons.

    Iran is NOT new at trying to destabilize Saudi Arabia or Bahrain.. They have been at it since I was a small girl.

    You would think jews would have learnt their lesson by now..

    The End of Zionism


    http://www.counter-currents.com/2011...sm/#more-19949

    Zionism’s days are numbered. The probability of its ultimate demise seems high, though the timing is unpredictable. ...

    ..No one gave serious thought to the question of whether all the world’s Jews would reside in Palestine, or only those who chose to or could be compelled to do so.
    The upshot was that only a fraction of the world’s Jews ever made Israel their home. The US, not Israel, became the “headquarters” of world Jewry. Jews dominated the governments and societies of post-WW II Europe as well. ...

    ..Jews occupy a unique ecological niche among the peoples of the world. They habitually live among, and off of, other people. As a single group gathered in one locality they could not survive.

    Their only real analogue in this regard is Gypsies. ...

    zulu dear, Zionism as an ideology is about the existence of a Jewish state (aka Israel) in the Middle East and nothing else. Wiping Israel off the map and wiping Zionism off the map are synonyms. Don't take my word for it though, check any dictionary.

    Seriously sweetheart, you are not fooling anyone, not even moon, he may pretend to agree with you for propaganda purposes but he just like the mullahs and Ahmadinejad wants Israel to disappear from the pages of time...So do you.

    An article in a pro-Zionist rag, The Wall Street Journal, is not evidence. Try again.

    Good try. Zionism is a political ideology like Nazism. That is the context that he used it. Everybody knows it. It's not even controversial, only to pro-Zionists and their apologists.

    You are probably right. The existence of 23 arab states is fine with everybody, the existence of 70 muslim states is ok too, so is the existence of hundreds of ethnic states and states with Christianity as the official religion... But the existence of a Jewish state in the Middle East is an anathema to him...and he wants to wipe it off the map (or erase from the pages of time if you will). I am glad we can agree on something...except of course you support him and I don't.

    Nope, your interpretation of his words is incorrect. Again, he was referring to the Zionist REGIME. The argumentation which insisted that the Nazi regime be erased in Germany during WW2, is not akin to insisting that the German people or its landmass be erased. You are deliberately misrepresenting his position. Your position is therefore intellectually dishonest. Israel is not an exclusively jewish state and will never become one. Even leading figures within the US political establishment - including Joe Biden - publicly recognise this because they understand that such a notion is inherently fascist given the demographic composition of the country in question A quarter of the population of Israel are non-jews.

    I'll bet it will be a lot less if there is a war... At least by the end of it.

    Hell, we just went over the 7 billions mark on this planet. Time to make some room. Let's get rid of the excess bagage of those who haven't contributed anything to society in the last 500 years, also known as the islamist.

    Another canard. The world is not overpopulated. Global food production per capita by far exceeds global human reproduction. There is no potential crisis of overpopulation...Another propaganda sponge.

    Kind of like the justification for a pre-emptive strike on Iraq?
