'Official' Iranian website calls for justified 'killing of Jews, destroying Israel in 9 minutes'

Iran Herald (ANI) Tuesday 7th February, 2012

An Iranian website with close ties to the country's supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has laid out the legal and moral justifications to kill all Jews and annihilate Israel.

Conservative website Alef has published a doctrine which says that the chance to remove the 'corrupting material' of Israel must not be lost, and that it would only take nine minutes to wipe it out.

It said it was a 'jurisprudential justification' for Iran's Islamic government to then take the helm, The Daily Mail reports.

The crux of the article, written by Khamenei's strategy specialist Alireza Forghani, said Iran would be justified in launching a pre-emptive strike against Israel because of the threat the Jewish state's leaders are posing against its own nuclear facilities.

According to the report, it said that Israel would need US approval and help to carry out such an attack, and that because of a current passive climate in America the time for Iran to strike was now.

The publication of the doctrine comes after Khamenei recently announced that Iran would support any nation or group that attacks the 'cancerous tumour' of Israel.

The article is now being run on most state-owned conservative sites, indicating it has the regime's support. (ANI)
