Genocide Approved by Islamic Nations
We should note that Iranian madman Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his genocidal rhetoric are not being disavowed by the world’s Islamic nations. The Organization of the Islamic Conference did not issue one word of disapproval following his call to destroy Israel, at their meeting in Malaysia—not even a pro forma public relations statement.
In fact, Ahmadinejad is a star.
PUTRAJAYA, Malaysia (Reuters) - Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and other Muslim leaders demanded a halt on Thursday to Israeli attacks on Lebanon and Gaza and said they wanted to strengthen U.N. peacekeeping forces in the area.
Wary of restive populations back home, and aghast at the toll in heavily Muslim southern Lebanon, a special session of the Organization of the Islamic Conference also called for an investigation into Israel’s “violations” of international law and demanded the Jewish state pay compensation.
But it was Ahmadinejad, his hardline views on Israel reinvigorated by public backing from Iran’s supreme clerical leader, who animated the emergency meeting as it strove to get the Muslim world’s voice heard above the diplomatic din. [By calling for genocide? —ed.]
“Although the main cure (to the situation) is the elimination of the Zionist regime, in this stage an immediate ceasefire should be implemented,” Ahmadinejad, who previously has said Israel should be wiped off the map, told the closed door meeting.
“Britain and America, as the main associates of the Zionist regime in its offensive to Lebanon, should compensate Lebanon’s damages. Those governments should answer for their crimes in Lebanon,” he said in his speech, a copy of which was made available by Iranian diplomats. And he urged Islamic and Arab nations to cut all political and economic ties to the Jewish state. …
Ahmadinejad has clearly struck a chord [a murderous, Jew-hating chord. —ed.] in parts of the Muslim world. He was treated like something of a rock star during a recent visit to Indonesia, particularly on college campuses.
