Tehran, Iran, May 11 – Iran’s hard-line President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad described Israel on Thursday as an “evil regime” that would soon be “annihilated”, while claiming that the Jewish state was a Western creation to undermine the security of Muslim nations, the official news agency reported.

“If the West does not support Israel, this regime will be toppled”, Ahmadinejad told a student gathering in the Indonesian capital, Jakarta.

“As it has lost its raison d’être, Israel will be annihilated”, he said.

He rejected international condemnation of his previous remarks about Israel, daring the West to end its support for the Jewish state.

Ahmadinejad had previously described the Holocaust as a “myth” and called for Israel to be “wiped off the map”.

During his address on Thursday, he described Israel as an “unbridled” and “evil” state which did not adhere to “law or logic”.

“Today, the occupied land that is being ruled by the Zionist regime is a great prison and a military base”, he said.

“The West claims that more than six million Jews were killed in World War II and to compensate for that they established and support Israel”.

“If it is true that the Jews were killed in Europe, why should Israel be established in the East, in Palestine?” he questioned.

Ahmadinejad said the West created Israel to act as a constant threat to countries in the region.
