Twice in the past week, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has called for the annihilation of the State of Israel.
In a July 23, 2014 public address marking the upcoming Qods (Jerusalem) Day, which this year fell on July 25, he said that the "only solution" for Israel's "wolf-like and child-killer regime" was "its annihilation and liquidation" (see MEMRI Inquiry and Analysis No. 1107, Qods Day In Iran: Tehran Calls For Annihilation Of Israel And For Arming The West Bank,July 25, 2014, and MEMRI TV Clip No. 4366, Iran's Leader Khamenei: Armed Struggle Should Continue until Israel Is Destroyed by a Referendum, July 23, 2014).
On July 26, Khamenei posted a message on his official Facebook page, Facebook.com/www.Khamenei.ir, also calling for the annihilation of the State of Israel. His post was titled: "Why Should & How Can Israel Be Eliminated? Ayatollah Khamenei's Answer To 9 Key Questions About The Elimination Of #Israel."
