The rhetoric heats up........

............between Iran and Israel. The lovely and talented (ha ha) Mahmoud Ahmadinejad refers to Israel as a "black and dirty microbe", and a "savage animal". Because chutzpah is apparently a foreign concept to Iran, the country then asked the U.N. Security Council to condemn Israel when the latter refused to take all options off the table in dealing with Iran's nuclear programme. For more on these stories, go here:

The world at large seems to have forgotten this, so let me try to remind it: The last person who said that he wanted to kill all the Jews actually went out and tried to do it.
