More genocidal rhetoric today from the Iranian madman: Ahmadinejad says Lebanon solution is ‘end of Zionist regime’.

The garbled writing in this first paragraph is typical for AFP.

TEHRAN (AFP) - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has the answer to the conflict in south Lebanon was the “elimination of the Zionist regime,” slamming Israel’s “war against humanity”.

“The real cure for the conflict is elimination of the Zionist regime, but there should be first an immediate ceasefire,” the ISNA agency reported Ahmadinejad as saying Thursday from Putrajaya, Malaysia.

And when are world leaders going to stop treating this would-be Hitler with kid gloves?

British Prime Minister Tony Blair reacted swiftly to Ahamdinejad’s comments, calling them “deeply unhelpful”, restating his position that Iran and Syria should help find a long-lasting, sustainable solution to the conflict.

“The comments of the Iranian President earlier today, that the solution lies in the elimination of Israel, are deeply unhelpful,” Blair told journalists in London.
