Iran leader says believes Israel will soon collapse
TEHRAN (Reuters) - Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad launched a new verbal attack against
Israel on Wednesday, saying he believed it would soon collapse, state media reported.

Ahmadinejad, who has sparked international outcry by referring to the killing of six million Jews in World War Two as a "myth" and calling for Israel to be "wiped off the map," made the comments in a speech in the southern province of Khuzestan.

"I'm sure that soon we will observe the collapse of the Zionist regime (Israel)," the official IRNA news agency quoted him as saying, without elaborating.

4. yahoo mixed up osama and Obama...
maybe the Iranian president was talking about a cake collapsing? one of those cakes your mom cooked where you hadda stop jumping around(?) or it fall...
fukking yahoo, mixing up cakes and geopoltics(?)

what yahoo mistakenly printed:
"I'm sure that soon we will observe the collapse of the Zionist regime (Israel)," the official IRNA news agency quoted him as saying, without elaborating.

what probably was said, but yahoo didn't like:
"I'm sure that soon we will observe the collapse of the upside down (Israel) cake," the official IRNA news agency quoted him as saying, without elaborating.
:rofl:
btw this nothing to do with iran, or israel. yahoo is a lying liar new org. period

5. When Israeli leaders talk about Iran
it is taken quite seriously.

Why not so when Iranian leaders talk about Israel?

6. i know..i was just commenting on goddam yahoo...
i agree with you - iran's leaders shouldn't act like punks looking for a brawl with neighborhood bully, who might well kill them all, fwiw, but...yahoo has driven me crazy always fukking around with the news, trying to protect their boytoy bush, who apparently helps their bottom line or something. yahoo expects its reports on israel/iran to be read serious while playing silly games with Barack Obama's name? to what end? who are they trying to confound? and why?

8. cnn/yahoo, they're both lying bastards
thus when they 'get serious' how do you knowit? how does one know they weren't mistaking a falling cake with a collapsing regime in israel since they mixed up osama/obama?
and why should anyone trust them, as they are snake oil salesmen in effect?

9. Because on DU if an Iranian
leader says something inflammatory it was "mis-translated".
