Why Did Liberals Worldwide Cheer When Iran President Said He Would Wipe Out Israel?

Answer 1

I hate to say this, but it's true!

'Cause Democrats hate all life, even their own.

Answer 2

He never said that and if he did liberals wouldn't have cheered.The most infamous quote, "Israel must be wiped off the map", is the most glaringly wrong. In his October 2005 speech, Mr. Ahmadinejad never used the word "map" or the term "wiped off". According to Farsi-language experts like Juan Cole and even right-wing services like MEMRI, what he actually said was "this regime that is occupying Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time."

What did he mean? In this speech to an annual anti-Zionist conference, Mr. Ahmadinejad was being prophetic, not threatening. He was citing Imam Khomeini, who said this line in the 1980s (a period when Israel was actually selling arms to Iran, so apparently it was not viewed as so ghastly then). Mr. Ahmadinejad had just reminded his audience that the Shah's regime, the Soviet Union, and Saddam Hussein had all seemed enormously powerful and immovable, yet the first two had vanished almost beyond recall and the third now languished in prison. So, too, the "occupying regime" in Jerusalem would someday be gone. His message was, in essence, "This too shall pass."
Bottom line,stop believing the propaganda.The world looks very different once you start looking critically

Answer 3

Liberals worldwide?

And how many of us are out there anyway? Do you have any concrete numbers?

Personally, I wouldn't care if Israel got wiped off the map. It's been 60 years in coming. And the #1 source of ALL the problems stemming in the Middle East right now.

I wouldn't shed one bloody tear over its demise.

Think about it for a second: Why do you think we are so eager to embrace a failed Fatah government that is rife with corruption--and not even TRY for a united Palestinian state?

It's all for Israel's benefit.

Why do you think that we invaded Iraq in the first place?

Not just to find non-existent WMDs, but to PROTECT US interests in the region.

And guess who THAT would be?

Israel!

And so goes the issue of Iran's LEGAL uranium enrichment.

If and WHEN Iran achieves nuclear arms, Israel would be more threatened than the US.

Answer 4

I don't know if that was exactly what was said or that they actually cheered but it is a well known fact they don't like Israel and I've never figured that one out. Expecially when they are one of our allies. Maybe that's it! I wasn't surprised by their 'outrage and insult' they always act this way when the truth hurts them!

Answer 5

Since the creation of the state of Isreal, many gov'ts have called for its destruction:::::::what's new? Isreal, the state is here to stay. The sooner accepted, the better. Let those who fight it, give jobs to their people and world education to their children.
Byy the way, Isreal has shown they can defend their state. Let's not forget the "7 day war".

Answer 6

It is questions like this that give REAL Conservatives a bad name. You wanna-bees need to stay in school and receive a education, and think before you speak next time.

Answer 11

I'd like to read his quote with my own eyes if you don't mind. and the thing that many of you cons fail to realize is that many Jews are Liberals so your question is oxymoron.
