Netanyahu Blasts Ahmadinejad at U.N.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a blistering attack on the floor of the United Nations Thursday on Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

Netanyahu held up original copies of minutes of the meeting of Nazi officials in 1942 where plans were made for the extermination of the Jews, as well as constructions plans of Nazi concentration camps at the UN general assembly as he condemned the Iranian leader, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. “Are these protocols lies?” he asked, waving them in his hand.

“On Wednesday the president of Iran stood at this very podium and spewed his anti-Semitic rants,” he said. “Just a few days earlier he claimed that the Holocaust was a lie.” He then described how he had obtained the documents he held up before the assembly and described the Iranian leadership as primitive. The Iranian regime "is motivated by fanaticism". They want to see us go back to medieval times."

The Israeli prime minister saluted countries such as the US, Britain, France and Canada that had either boycotted Ahmadinejad's speech or walked out during it, and denounced those who had stayed. "Have you no shame? Have you no decency?" he shouted. "What a disgrace. What a mockery of the UN charter."
