Addressing a UN anti-racism confab Iran's president minces no words in calling Israel 'a totally racist government' formed on the back of 'military aggression'.

 

Snubbing Monday warnings by the French Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the post-World War II military invasions on Palestine which preceded the propping up of the entity, were explained by 'Jewish suffering'.

 

"They resorted to military aggression to make an entire nation homeless under the pretext of Jewish," he said.

 

"They sent migrants from Europe, the United States and other parts of the world in order to establish a totally racist government in the occupied Palestine."

 

Kouchner had earlier warned that all European envoys would leave the UN anti-racism summit, should Ahmadinejad level 'racist or anti-Semitic accusations' against Israel.

 

In an attempt to interrupt the Iranian president's speech, a number of delegates left the summit dubbed 'Durban II' as he touch on the issue. Ahmadinejad, however, continued his speech and was applauded by the audience.
