Netanyahu: We must try Ahmadinejad for genocide



By Stan Goodenough
December 14, 2006

Former Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is launching an effort to get Iranian megalomaniac Mahmoud Ahmadinejad tried on a charge of genocide at the International Court of Justice in The Hague.

Ahmadinejad has frequently called for Israel's destruction, has vowed to carry this out himself, is currently hosting a conference aimed at disupting the facts about the Holocaust. All the while he is pursuing nuclear weapons with his eye on using them against Israel and the West.

Netanyahu, the leader of the Opposition Likud Party and who, unlike virtually all of Israel's other prime ministers, believes in the importance of aggressive public relations on Israel's behalf, has invited 70 foreign diplomats stationed in Israel to a meeting next week.

The media-savvy Israeli plans to use the event to challenge the world's complacency in the face of the mushrooming Iranian threat.

Iran's nuclear program must be stopped, Netanyahu said. "Ahmadinejad is saying clearly that [destroying the Jews is] his intention, and we aren't even shouting."
