Ahmadinejad tells Hezbollah supporters in South Lebanon: Zionists will disappear

From Jewish Journal:

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad arrived in the south Lebanese town of Bint Jbeil on Thursday, close to the border with Israel, a state he has said should be wiped from the map.

Speaking to thousands of supporters waving Iranian flags and cheering, Ahmadinejad praised Hezbollah and its southern stronghold as “the foremost shield of Lebanon.”

“You are the heroes that guard Lebanon’s sovereignty,” he told them. “You have proven that there no force in the world can beat you. The resistance of the Lebanese nation, drawn from faith in God, can stand up to any Israeli force – planes, tanks and ships.”
