France 24: Iran's Khamenei says Israel 'not a country, but a terrorist base'
Iran's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei on Friday called Israel "not a country, but a terrorist base" during a speech on Al-Quds Day, an annual show of solidarity with the Palestinians.
Tensions have been running high between the two arch-foes following a series of maritime attacks, an explosion at an Iranian nuclear facility and the assassination of a top nuclear scientist that Tehran blamed on Israel.
The Islamic republic does not recognize the Jewish state, and supporting the Palestinian cause, as well as armed groups such as Hamas and Lebanon's Hezbollah, has been a pillar of Iran's foreign policy since its 1979 revolution.
"Israel is not a country, but a terrorist base against the nation of Palestine and other Muslim nations," Khamenei said in live televised remarks.

It's more of an Apartheid state, but he's not lying.
It wouldn't be an "Apartheid state" if the Palestinians got rid of their self-serving leadership, acknowledged Israel's right to exist, revoked their official "Israel must be destroyed" policy, and worked with Israel for peaceful co-existence. The latter of these would be the most problematic, but could occur over time as the two sides developed a working relationship. Until then, the only thing that will change is the conflict will only get worse.
As for Iran calling Israel a "terrorist base," well, they would know.
What a surprise! The supposedly "terrorist base" allows Arabs-Israels' people to have a representation at the Knesset.
America allowed a black guy to become president and racism was no more.
Shining city on the hill.
He is a liar.
The US doesn't "allow" anyone to achieve "elected" office. It may be stolen but not "allowed".
Your proof that it was stolen: I dare you to post some reliable facts that contradict 8 million more Biden votes and a huge bunch of electoral college votes. If you can not...? what does that say
You're a liar.
It was stolen.

SAD.
Israel should nuke Iran while they are still able to, before its too late.
I like how modest the Iranian leader is: "Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei"! LOL. But I will give him credit for being an ugly motherforker.
Thief
What a fool
