Ahmadinejad made a campaign speech in 2005 where he said he wanted to wipe Israel off the map, but is there more proof than this of Iran's intentions?

That speech is about it... we have had presidents say more than that.
The thing that most Americans don't know though is that the Iranian president actually does not have unfettered power to invade anyone. They are also many years away (some suspect that it could take them 10 years conservatively) to build a nuclear weapon.... by that time Ahmadinejad would be out of office since his office is limited to terms (and he does not have the power to over rule this). He just said this for votes, that's it. Look at our own politicians saying militaristic threats during elections. No different.

Not at all... Iran loves them... it's just an exaggeration by the crowd that thinks the Holocaust happened. And Iran doesn't even like Hezbollah that were killing the Israelis.
Oh, and there are no gays in Iran because Ahmadinejad said so.
He's a little midget guy and short people don't lie.
Basically anyone that uses the term "Zionist" side with the Iranian leader and Palestinians who kill them. It's the Politically Correct way from calling them Jew bast***** since bigots are frowned upon now days.

There is no proof, Iran would NEVER attack Israel. We are constantly HOLDING ISRAEL BACK! They want to drop nukes but we won't let them. Israel has nothing to fear from the arab nations, it is most definitely the other way around.

Since Muslims are predisposed to be anti-Jewish (as well as anti-Christian and anti-polytheist), and since they are educated to have concern for their brother Muslim (as in Palestine) it is no suprise that many of them would want to destroy Israel. No one needs him to feed into that.

Because they have repeatedly threatened to, many islamofascists are trying to get their mitts on nukes..so most the probability is high.

Simply stating it is enough for me. That is a threat.
