Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad compared Israel to an annoying insect Saturday, maintaining that the Jewish state poses no threat to Tehrans nuclear program.
"Israel is nothing more than a mosquito which cannot see the broad horizon of the Iranian nation," he said in northeastern Iran's Khorassan province, according to the semi-official Fars news agency.
Ahmadinejad said "regional states" were being duped into buying billions of dollars worth of arms from "arrogant and imperial powers," driven, in part, by increasing speculation of an imminent war involving Iran and Israel, the state-run Islamic Republic News Agency (IRNA) reported.
Such military purchases, he said, are unnecessary because there is no such war on the horizon.
The Iranian president alluded to "rulers" who sold "their petrol" for $60 billion worth in arms. While he did not explicitly mention the names of countries, Saudi Arabia is in the midst of a 20-year, $60 billion arms deal with the United States, including nearly $30 billion for F-15 fighter jets announced late last year.
Ahmadinejad also maintained that war is not essential to achieve the destruction of Israel, IRNA reported. If countries of the region cut ties with the Zionists and giver them dirty looks, it will spell the end of this puppet regime, he said.
Ahmadinejad has long denied the Holocaust and has threatened to obliterate the Jewish state, calling it a cancerous tumor.
Only a few months after taking office in October 2005, the Iranian President asserted that, "With the force of God behind it, we shall soon experience a world without the United States and Zionism," according to an IRNA report.

Mosquito bites can kill.
That’s all the little lemur can do..
Joel 3:2
I will gather all nations and bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat. There I will enter into judgment against them concerning my inheritance, my people Israel, for they scattered my people among the nations and divided up my land.
Jug queers is on the wrong side of judgement again.

This is the view of an Israeli Mossad mosquito about to bite A'hm-A-Dizzy-Jihad...
Thanks Eleutheria5.
Ahmedinejad will get his smackdown in Ezekiel 38; or so it seems possible. Either way, Iran for certain will experience it along with the mullahs.
Wish more Iranians could escape the mullahs.
Eventually all the nations of the world shall gather against Israel and Jerusalem, and the passage you quote from Joel shall be fulfilled.
One can see it coming with the attitudes of many, many nations.
Yeah, go with that you moron......
Such military purchases, he said, are unnecessary because there is no such war on the horizon.
Wow, surprised most folks on here have missed the point: Ahmadinejad just blinked. He's watching the arms build up happening around him and isn't liking what he's seeing. This is the first time Ahmadinejad is saying he has no plans for war, and has backed down on his threatening of Israel.
Calling them a "mosquito bite" is a dramatic change from "driving them into the sea" calling for their complete annihilation.
I wonder if the talking head's this Sunday morning are going to pick up on this. Better yet, wonder if oil markets are paying attention to this dramatic shift in rhetoric and the complete toning down of war mongering comint from Ahmadinejad.
THAT makes it a Minnesoooota dive bomber!!
How did it get all the way over there?
Yeah.
Said the same thing about Gideon and his gang of 300.
Dinner Jacket will be the next in a long line to find out that God doesn’t suffer haters of the Jewish people, the apple of His eye.
Or a mosquito loaded with yellow fever and malaria, two of the most lethal diseases known to the human race.
Yep - ne headline, "Mosquito Swats Man"
Pay it no mind. They’re toning down their rhetoric for the moment, and they can stoke it back up again tomorrow. This is the old Byzantine game of “that was then; this is now.”
“Israel is nothing more than a mosquito...”
Ahmadinejad needs to have a little talk with the Egyptians.
Yes
Dung Beetle's
only not as loveable.
This is in response to the recent move of political unity in Israel. Last time that happened, the neighborhood was rocked.
-— Psalm 83
New International Version (NIV)
Psalm 83[a]
A song. A psalm of Asaph.
1 O God, do not remain silent;
do not turn a deaf ear,
do not stand aloof, O God.
2 See how your enemies growl,
how your foes rear their heads.
3 With cunning they conspire against your people;
they plot against those you cherish.
4 Come, they say, let us destroy them as a nation,
so that Israels name is remembered no more.
5 With one mind they plot together;
they form an alliance against you
6 the tents of Edom and the Ishmaelites,
of Moab and the Hagrites,
7 Byblos, Ammon and Amalek,
Philistia, with the people of Tyre.
8 Even Assyria has joined them
to reinforce Lots descendants.[b]
9 Do to them as you did to Midian,
as you did to Sisera and Jabin at the river Kishon,
10 who perished at Endor
and became like dung on the ground.
11 Make their nobles like Oreb and Zeeb,
all their princes like Zebah and Zalmunna,
12 who said, Let us take possession
of the pasturelands of God.
13 Make them like tumbleweed, my God,
like chaff before the wind.
14 As fire consumes the forest
or a flame sets the mountains ablaze,
15 so pursue them with your tempest
and terrify them with your storm.
16 Cover their faces with shame, Lord,
so that they will seek your name.
17 May they ever be ashamed and dismayed;
may they perish in disgrace.
18 Let them know that you, whose name is the Lord
that you alone are the Most High over all the earth.
Next.
Great list.
It shows God keeps His promises.
In the future we will add the King of the North, the King of the South, the Anti-Christ, and the nations meeting in the Valley of Megiddo to the list.
