Iran's Threat To "Wipe Israel Off The Map"
See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvwg1ZlDgBk&feature=share
The "Wipe Israel Off The Map" Hoax
What Ahmadinejad really said and why this broken record is just another ad slogan for war
From http://www.prisonplanet.com/articles/january2007/260107offthemap.htm
Paul Joseph Watson Prison Planet
Friday, January 26, 2007
Barely a day goes by that one can avoid reading or hearing yet another Israeli, American or British warhawk regurgitate the broken record that Iran's President Ahmadinejad threatened to "wipe Israel off the map," framed in the ridiculous context that Israelis are being targeted for a second holocaust.
This baseless rallying call for conflict holds about as much credibility as Dick Cheney's assertion that Saddam Hussein was planning to light up American skies with mushroom clouds.
Today it's the turn of would-be future British Prime Minister David Cameron, leader of the Conservative Party, who repeated the "wipe Israel off he map" fraud in a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos, using it to qualify his refusal to rule out a military strike on Iran under a Tory government.
Did Ahmadinejad really threaten to "wipe Israel off the map" or is this phrase just another jingoistic brand slogan for selling the next war in the Middle East?
The devil is in the detail, wiping Israel off the map suggests a physical genocidal assault, a literal population relocation or elimination akin to what the Nazis did.
According to numerous different translations, Ahmadinejad never used the word "map," instead his statement was in the context of time and applied to the Zionist regime occupying Jerusalem.
Ahmadinejad was expressing his future hope that the Zionist regime in Israel would fall, not that Iran was going to physically annex the country and its population.
To claim Ahmadinejad has issued a rallying cry to ethnically cleanse Israel is akin to saying that Churchill wanted to murder all Germans when he stated his desire to crush the Nazis. This is about the demise of a corrupt occupying power, not the deaths of millions of innocent people.
The Guardian's Jonathan Steele cites four different translations, from professors to the BBC to the New York Times and even pro-Israel news outlets, in none of those translations is the word "map" used.
The closest translation to what the Iranian President actually said is, "The regime occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time," or a narrow relative thereof.
In no version is the word "map" used or a context of mass genocide or hostile military action even hinted at.
The acceptance of the word "map" seemingly originated with the New York Times, who later had to back away from this false translation.
The BBC also wrongly used the word and, in comments to Steele, later accepted their mistake but refused to issue a retraction.
"The fact that he compared his desired option - the elimination of "the regime occupying Jerusalem" - with the fall of the Shah's regime in Iran makes it crystal clear that he is talking about regime change, not the end of Israel.
As a schoolboy opponent of the Shah in the 1970's he surely did not favor Iran's removal from the page of time.
He just wanted the Shah out," writes Steele.
"It's important to note that the "quote" in question was itself a quote, writes Arash Norouzi, "they are the words of the late Ayatollah Khomeini, the father of the Islamic Revolution. Although he quoted Khomeini to affirm his own position on Zionism, the actual words belong to Khomeini and not Ahmadinejad.
Thus, Ahmadinejad has essentially been credited (or blamed) for a quote that is not only unoriginal, but represents a viewpoint already in place well before he ever took office."
Professor Juan Cole concurs, arguing, "Now, some might say, "So he didn't say, 'wipe off the map,' he said 'erase from the page.' What's the difference?
Anyway he's saying he wants to get rid of Israel.
Ahmadinejad was not making a threat, he was quoting a saying of Khomeini and urging that pro-Palestinian activists in Iran not give up hope -- that the occupation of Jerusalem was no more a continued inevitability than had been the hegemony of the Shah's government.
Whatever this quotation from a decades-old speech of Khomeini may have meant, Ahmadinejad did not say that 'Israel must be wiped off the map' with the implication that phrase has of Nazi-style extermination of a people.
He said that the occupation regime over Jerusalem must be erased from the page of time."

Deterrent Power
Deterrent Power is the potential to counter any threat from an enemy, by relying on one's own forces.
If Gaddafi had sufficent "Deterrent Power", such as nuclear weapons, then Libya would not have been attacked.
If Gaddafi had sufficent "Deterrent Power", such as nuclear weapons, then Libya would not have been attacked.
Also, many seem to think that Gaddafi was some cruel leader, but do you really think that even at his worst, that Gaddafi was worse than the United States???
Are you even aware of how cruel the American Government has been, especially how they have caused the deaths of millions upon millions of people around the world, often of innocent civilians??
For example, the million people in Iraq who died as a result of the Bush actions, resulting from the sanctions and attacks??
Or consider even how the United States supported Saddam Hussein in the Iraqi attack against your country Iran, in a war that caused the deaths of one million people??
Or the up to ten million people who died in the Korean war?
Or the up to two million people who died in the Viet Nam war?
We could go into the thousands of illegal lynchings, often of innocent lynching civilians in the US.
Or we could look at the over 15,000 executions by the US.
We could study the major terrorist activities committed by the US in Nicaragua.
Or then there are countless numbers of false flags and black operations committed by the US.
And the list goes on and on of the deaths that the United States has caused to tens of millions of people,
the majority being innocent civilians.
The fact is that the United States is a terrorist regime.
Some people may deny that, but those people are just being fools.
Yet Gaddafi NEVER caused anywhere near that amount of trouble and of deaths that the United States has caused.
Also, the fact remains that Gaddafi was one of the best leaders to his own people, out of almost any leader at anytime, any where.
NO American leader lifted up his own people anywhere close to how Gaddafi lifted up his own people and their living standards.
Gaddafi's problem is that he did NOT have enough "Deterrent Power" to keep the United States from attacking Libya. IF Gaddafi had nuclear weapons, then the United States would NOT have attacked Libya.
That is for sure.
Anyway, understand this, "Deterrent Power" prevents an aggressive country from attacking another country.
For decades, United States has wanted to use their US military to attack Russia (Soviet Union).
The NUMBER ONE reason why United States has not gone to war against Russia, is that Russia has the ultimate "Deterrent Power", which is nuclear weapons that would have been used against the United States.
THAT is why they fought the "Cold War".
Ever since after World War Two, NO country has started a war against the United States, because the US has the ultimate "Deterrent Power", which is nuclear weapons.
IF the US did not have nuclear weapons, then many countries would have used their militaries to go to war against the US and attacked the US.
It was exactly seventy years ago today (December 11, 2011) that Hitler declared war against the US, but at that time, Hitler did not know about the American atomic bombs.
Similarly, the same goes for Japan.
So, what you need to know is that it is reasonable and rational for your country to have nuclear weapons as a "Deterrent Power" to protect Iran from an attack by the United States and/or Israel.
I do NOT promote any country to have nuclear weapons.
NO ONE SHOULD HAVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS.
But nuclear weapons are an irreversible fact of life.
So, if one county has nuclear weapons, then other countries have the right to have nuclear weapons to ONLY be used as a "Deterrent Power". It is a matter of moral relativism.

Nuclear Iran
Nothing is more rational than Iran’s wanting a nuclear weapon.
Imagine, for a moment, that you are an Iranian mullah.
Sitting crosslegged on your Persian rug in Tehran, sipping a cup of chai, you glance up at the map of the Middle East on the wall.
It is a disturbing image: your country, the Islamic Republic of Iran, is surrounded on all sides by virulent enemies and regional rivals, both nuclear and non-nuclear.
On your eastern border, the United States has 100,000 troops serving in Afghanistan.
On your eastern border, the United States has 100,000 troops serving in Afghanistan.
On your western border, the US has been occupying Iraq since 2003 and plans to retain a small force of military contractors and CIA operatives even after its official withdrawal next month.
Pakistan, a nuclear-armed nation, is to the south-east;
Turkey, America's Nato ally, to the north-west;
Turkmenistan, which has acted as a refuelling base for US military transport planes since 2002, to the north-east.
To the south, across the Persian Gulf, you see a cluster of US client states:
Bahrain, home to the US Fifth Fleet; Qatar, host to a forward headquarters of US Central Command;
Saudi Arabia, whose king has exhorted America to "attack Iran" and "cut off the head of the snake".
Then, of course, less than a thousand miles to the west, there is Israel, your mortal enemy, in possession of over a hundred nuclear warheads and with a history of pre-emptive aggression against its opponents.
The map makes it clear:
Then, of course, less than a thousand miles to the west, there is Israel, your mortal enemy, in possession of over a hundred nuclear warheads and with a history of pre-emptive aggression against its opponents.
The map makes it clear:
Iran is, literally, encircled by the United States and its allies.
If that wasn't worrying enough, your country seems to be under (covert) attack.
If that wasn't worrying enough, your country seems to be under (covert) attack.
Several nuclear scientists have been mysteriously assassinated and, late last year, a sophisticated computer virus succeeded in shutting down roughly a fifth of Iran's nuclear centrifuges.
Only last weekend, the "pioneer" of the Islamic Republic's missile programme, Major General Hassan Moghaddam, was killed – with 16 others – in a huge explosion at a Revolutionary Guards base 25 miles outside Tehran.
You go online to discover western journalists reporting that the Mossad is believed to have been behind the blast.
And then you pause to remind yourself of the fundamental geopolitical lesson that you and your countrymen learned over the last decade: the US and its allies opted for war with non-nuclear Iraq, but diplomacy with nuclear-armed North Korea.
If you were our mullah in Tehran, wouldn't you want Iran to have the bomb – or at the very minimum, "nuclear latency" (that is, the capability and technology to quickly build a nuclear weapon if threatened with attack)?
Let's be clear: there is still no concrete evidence Iran is building a bomb.

Let's be clear: there is still no concrete evidence Iran is building a bomb.
The latest report from the IAEA, despite its much discussed reference to "possible military dimensions to Iran's nuclear programme", also admits that its inspectors continue "to verify the non-diversion of declared nuclear material at [Iran's] nuclear facilities".
The leaders of the Islamic Republic – from Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei to bombastic President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad – maintain their goal is only to develop a civilian nuclear programme, not atomic bombs.
Nonetheless, wouldn't it be rational for Iran – geographically encircled, politically isolated, feeling threatened – to want its own arsenal of nukes, for defensive and deterrent purposes?
Nonetheless, wouldn't it be rational for Iran – geographically encircled, politically isolated, feeling threatened – to want its own arsenal of nukes, for defensive and deterrent purposes?
The US government's Nuclear Posture Review admits such weapons play an "essential role in deterring potential adversaries" and maintaining "strategic stability" with other nuclear powers.
In 2006, the UK's Ministry of Defence claimed our own strategic nuclear deterrent was designed to "deter and prevent nuclear blackmail and acts of aggression against our vital interests that cannot be countered by other means".
Apparently, what is sauce for the Anglo-American goose is not sauce for the Iranian gander. Empathy is in short supply.
As leading US nuclear policy analyst George Perkovich has observed:
"The US government never has publicly and objectively assessed Iranian leaders' motivations for seeking nuclear weapons and what the US and others could do to remove those motivations."
Instead, the Islamic Republic is dismissed as irrational and megalomaniacal.
But it isn't just Iran's leaders who are unwilling to back down on the nuclear issue.
But it isn't just Iran's leaders who are unwilling to back down on the nuclear issue.
On Tuesday, around 1,000 Iranian students formed a human chain around the uranium conversion facility in Isfahan, chanting "Death to America" and "Death to Israel".
Their protest may have been organised by the authorities but even the leaders and members of the opposition Green Movement tend to support Iran's uranium enrichment programme.
According to a 2010 University of Maryland survey, 55% of Iranians back their country's pursuit of nuclear power and, remarkably, 38% support the building of a nuclear bomb.
So what is to be done?
So what is to be done?
Sanctions haven't worked and won't work. Iranians refuse to compromise on what they believe to be their "inalienable" right to nuclear power under the Non-proliferation treaty.
Military action, as the US defence secretary Leon Panetta admitted last week, could have "unintended consequences", including a backlash against "US forces in the region".
The threat of attack will only harden the resolve for a nuclear deterrent; belligerence breeds belligerence.
The simple fact is there is no alternative to diplomacy, no matter how truculent or paranoid the leaders of Iran might seem to western eyes.
The simple fact is there is no alternative to diplomacy, no matter how truculent or paranoid the leaders of Iran might seem to western eyes.
If a nuclear-armed Iran is to be avoided, US politicians have to dial down their threatening rhetoric and tackle the very real and rational perception, on the streets of Tehran and Isfahan, of America and Israel as military threats to the Islamic Republic.
Iranians are fearful, nervous, defensive – and, as the Middle East map shows, perhaps with good reason.
As the old adage goes, just because you're paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
