I'm wondering if any nuance was lost in translation.

Quote:

"Those who think they can revive the stinking corpse of the usurping and fake Israeli regime by throwing a birthday party are seriously mistaken," Ahmadinejad was quoted as saying by the official IRNA news agency.
"Today the reason for the Zionist regime's existence is questioned, and this regime is on its way to annihilation," he said.
Ahmadinejad added that Israel "has reached the end like a dead rat after being slapped by the Lebanese" -- a reference to the July-August 2006 war between Israel and the Shiite Hezbollah militia.

Badabing!

What's that saying, by their friends, or is it their enemies, ye shall know them?

This puts the lack of any Israel-Palestine deal in perspective. It's called negotiating with the devil.

What he ACTUALLY said was that Israel is the son of a motherless goat and that Iran would nuke them all if it had the chance. So you can see, it was totally different than what was actually translated.

I cannot assess the translation's value ,since i have not heard his speech in Farsi,but his negligence of following the standards of diplomacy talk, has been giving good excuses to the media to attack him ,yet he is not all wrong .

Corruption, Oppression and Injustice do not smell good ,they stink and once you sensed it ,you cannot be deaf ,dumb and callous,you get to speak out.

These arenot his words ,he is just echoing the zionists thinkers voice . The End of Zionism
