TEHRAN (AFP) - Iran's hardline President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said
that if Germany and Austria feel responsible for massacring Jews during
World War II, a state of Israel should be established on their
soil.
Ahmadinejad, who sparked an international outcry in October when he
said Israel "must be wiped off the map", also repeated his view
Thursday that the Jewish state was a "tumour".
"Now that you believe the Jews were oppressed, why should the
Palestinian Muslims have to pay the price?" the hardline president
asked in an interview with Iran's Arabic-language satellite channel,
Al-Alam.
"Why did you come to give a piece of Islamic land and the territory of
the Palestinian people to them?
"You oppressed them, so give a part of Europe to the Zionist regime so
they can establish any government they want. We would support it," he
said, according to a transcript of his original Farsi-language comments
given to AFP.
"So, Germany and Austria, come and give one, two or any number of your
provinces to the Zionist regime so they can create a country there
which all of Europe will support and the problem will be solved at its
root," he said.
"Why do they insist on imposing themselves on other powers and creating
a tumour so there is always tension and conflict?"
Al-Alam said Ahmadinejad was speaking in the holy city of Mecca in
Saudi Arabia where he was attending a two-day meeting of the
Organisation of the Islamic Conference that opened Wednesday.
"Is it not true that European countries insist that they committed a
Jewish genocide? They say that Hitler burned millions of Jews in
furnaces ... and exiled them," Ahmadinejad told Al-Alam.
"Then because the Jews have been oppressed during the Second World War,
therefore they (the Europeans) have to support the occupying regime of
Qods (Jerusalem). We do not accept this," he said.
He also noted that European countries "believe in this so much and are
so determined that any researcher who denies it (the Holocaust) with
historical evidence is dealt with in a most harsh way and sent to
prison."
The Holocaust was Nazi Germany's systematic slaughter of an estimated
six million Jews between 1933 and 1945, mainly in the latter years of
World War II.
Official Iranian media frequently carry sympathetic interviews with
Holocaust revisionist historians -- who attempt to establish that the
number of Jews killed by the Nazis was wildly exaggerated.
Iran refuses to recognise Israel.
Ahmadinejad said his second proposal was for "a referendum in Palestine
for all the original Palestinians" to decide on the future of what is
now Israel, the Gaza Strip and West Bank.
But the president said that "the best solution is resistance so that
the enemies of the Palestinians accept the reality and the right of the
Palestinian people to have land."
