Iranians Hold Anti-Israel Demonstrations

TEHRAN, Iran - Tens of thousands of Iranians staged anti- Israel demonstrations across the country Friday, repeating calls by their ultraconservative president for the destruction of the Jewish state.

On Friday the Iranian Embassy in Moscow tried to soften the impact of Ahmadinejad‘s comment.

It added that Ahmadinejad "underlined the key position of Iran , based on the necessity to hold free elections on the occupied territories."

Ahmadinejad joined thousands of Iranians in one of several rallies in Tehran. State-run television showed Ahmadinejad surrounded by demonstrators, many holding banners with anti-Israeli and pro-Palestinian slogans. "Death to Israel, death to America," read many of the placards.
