"TEHRAN (AFP) — President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad Wednesday called Israel a "dirty microbe" and "savage animal", as Iran stepped up its rhetoric against the Jewish state after the murder of a top Hezbollah commander.
Ahmadinenjad's latest tirade came a week after the murder in a car bombing in Damascus of Imad Mughnieh, a top Hezbollah commander hailed by Iran as a great martyr who was killed by Israel.
Israel has denied any involvement in his murder although it welcomed the death of Mughnieh, who was on America's most wanted list for a string of anti-Israeli and anti-Western attacks.
He also accused world powers of establishing Israel to create a "scarecrow" to frighten and dominate other nations in the region.
The Iranian president has provoked international outrage by repeatedly predicting that Israel is doomed to disappear. He also courted more controversy by playing down the scale of the Holocaust."
This article continues to show Iran' resentment towards Israel. Though Israel denies any involvement in the death of the Hezbollah commander, Iran still believes that Israel is the culprit or the "savage animal."
