Palestinian statehood is a ‘step forward’ for full liberation, says Iran


TEHRAN: Palestinian statehood is a step forward for it full liberation says Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on this Friday while addressing thousand who rallied in Tehran to mark the “Quds Day”, an annual demonstration in solidarity with Palestinians and against Israel.

Iranian TV showed large crowds in major cities, carrying banners of “Death to Israel” and “Death to America.”

“The recognition of an independent Palestinian government is not the ultimate goal… (but) only a step forward for the full liberation of the Palestinian land,” Ahmadinejad said at Friday prayers at Tehran University.

“The Zionist regime is the hotbed for germs and cancerous cells. If they persist even in a very small parcel of the Palestinian land, they will move again… and harm everyone” in the region, he said in comments broadcast on television.

Ahmadinejad reiterated that the Holocaust was a “lie” which he said was used as an excuse for Israel’s creation.
