Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the only way to do battle with Israel is through Palestinian resistance. “The Zionist regime has always shown that aside from the language of guns, it does not know any other language,” the Iranian president said during a meeting with Farouk Kaddoumi, the head of the PLO’s political department, the Iranian government’s Fars news agency reported Tuesday. Meanwhile, Iranian Grand Ayatollah Bajat Sanjani called Ahmadinejad “a major threat” to the Iranian people and encouraged the country’s reformers to defeat him in elections next year during an interview in the German Financial Times Deutschland, Reuters reported.
