Happy Rosh Hashanah From Ahmadinejad: Holocaust is a “Lie” and Israel “Will Not Last Long”

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad gave his traditional Rosh Hashanah speech — effectively wishing Jews a Happy New Year by saying that they may not see another.

Ahmadinejad told worshippers at Tehran University that “[t]he pretext (Holocaust) for the creation of the Zionist regime (Israel) is false … It is a lie based on an unprovable and mythical claim” during the annual “Qods (Jerusalem) Day” rally. He reminded Iranians that “[c][/c]onfronting the Zionist regime is a national and religious duty.” Just in case anyone was making plans for next year, he warned “[t] his regime (Israel) will not last long. Do not tie your fate to it … This regime has no future. Its life has come to an end.”

Nice.

Just a note: he is coming to New York to visit the United Nations just in time for Yom Kippur.
