In a series of CNN Headline News Glenn Beck broadcasts Benjamin Netanyahu has made some compelling and alarming statements regarding the real threat presented by Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, mainly that Iran is well on its way to becoming a nuclear power. More to the point, an UNDETERRABLE nuclear power unlike any other.
Nuclear bombs in the hands of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would be like handing an atomic bomb to David Koresh. He is a megalomaniac, he is delusional, and his hateful diatribes calling for complete extermination of Jews and Israel have gone largely unreported by the mainstream media in the West, although the middle east is getting a steady diet of his hate speech every day.
His denial of the Holocaust is but one example:
In a December 2005 speech, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that the Holocaust was a "fairy tale" that had been promoted to protect Israel, ramping up his rhetoric and triggering a fresh wave of international denunciation. "They have fabricated a legend under the name 'Massacre of the Jews', and they hold it higher than God himself, religion itself and the prophets themselves," he said. He also called for Israel to be relocated to Germany, or Austria, arguing it was these nations that persecuted the Jews, so they ought to bear the responsibility, not Palestinians forsaking their land to form a nation of Israel. He also suggested relocating Israeli Jews to the United States.[38]
Hamas political leader Khaled Mashaal described Ahmadinejad's comments as "courageous" and stated that "...Muslim people will defend Iran because it voices what they have in their hearts, in particular the Palestinian people."[40] In the United States, the Muslim Public Affairs Council condemned Ahmadinejad's remarks.[41]
On 24 April 2006, he called on Jews in Israel to go back to their countries of origin and allow the Palestinians to return to their homelands. "Anti-Semitism in Europe has forced Jews to leave their countries of origin, but what they did instead was occupy a country which is not theirs but that of Palestinians," Ahmadinejad said in a press conference in Tehran. He then went on to again demand a free evaluation of the real extent of the Holocaust "in order to find the ultimate truth." A senior official in the Israeli government charged the Iranian president of offering a "Nazi-type solution" to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In January 2006, Iran announced that it would sponsor a conference to examine the historiography of the Holocaust, specifically addressing the question of whether the Holocaust was exaggerated. On September 3, 2006, during a visit to Iran by UN Secretary GeneralKofi Annan, the Iranian Foreign Ministry reiterated its commitment to hold such a conference during the autumn of 2006. The Associated Press quoted Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi as saying: "God willing, a conference on the Holocaust will be held in the autumn. The Holocaust is not a sacred issue that one can't touch. I have visited the Nazi camps in Eastern Europe. I think it is exaggerated."[42]
In October 2005 Ahmadinejad gave a speech that contained antagonistic statements about Israel. According to widely published translations, he agreed with a statement he attributed to Ayatollah Khomeini that the "occupying regime" had to be removed, and referred to Israel as a "disgraceful stain [on] the Islamic world" that would be eliminated.[1]
Other quotable quotes:
Anybody who recognizes Israel will burn in the fire of the Islamic nation's fury.
"The wave of the Islamic revolution will soon reach the entire world."
There is no doubt that the new wave (of attacks) in Palestine will wipe off this stigma (Israel) from the face of the Islamic world, ... The World without Zionism.
As the Imam said, Israel must be wiped off the map
Tehran, Nov 10, IRNA:
"The man hunters whose hands are stained with the blood of millions of innocent people pretend hypocritically that they are worried about the people's lives."
Ahmadinejad emphasized, "Thanks God, our mighty nation relying on the grace of God, its strong will, and the culture of martyrdom and selflessness, would pursue its proud path resolutely, and no enemy can do a damn thing regarding our nuclear program."
The president said, "The free world nations are enthusiastically watching Iran's achievements, since the world nations favor the establishment of political systems based on justice, monotheism, and spirituality, and they are shouting that demand."
Ahmadinejad emphasized, "It is not merely the world Muslims that pursue the establishment of justice and the rule of monotheists in he world, since the entire mankind is after achieving those goals today."
The president pointed out that the establishment of justice in the society is faced with numerous obstacles, further explaining, "They create crises on the path of the establishment of justice, since those who have got used to looting the public properties know they would ose their interests once justice would be established."

According to Agence France-Presse, October 20, Ahmadinejad said the following:
Without a doubt, the Zionist regime would disappear and the Western powers should know that as of now, every government supporting the Zionist regime would see only the results of the hatred the people of the region [felt for them]. In addition, the rage of the nations of the region was boiling and the efforts to stabilize that regime of deceit had failed completely, praise to Allah. The Zionist regime, he claimed, had lost the rationale for its existence. [At the previous day's rally at Islamshahr Ahmadinejad noted that the Zionist regime was illegitimate and could no longer continue to exist.]
He added that those warnings were an ultimatum to the Western powers , which should not complain they were not forewarned, saying very clearly that if the hurricane began, the West could rest assured that its dimensions would carry it beyond the geographic borders of Palestine . He also warned the West that the Zionist regime would drag its supporters into the abyss, and that their best solution would be to take all the elements of the Zionist regime and throw them away.
