That's an excellent question, because one of the questions I pose in my article and that I have been asked when I've presented this in other fora is why Ahmadinejad needs to persuade the Iranian people that Israel should be eliminated when he and perhaps the mullahs control the nuclear weapons that would be used to effectuate this genocide.
My answer is that obviously there have been protests against Ahmadinejad. He does not have the iron-fisted control over the country that I think he would like to have. And if he were going to commit Iran to launching nuclear weapons against Israel, which would first of all lead to the mass murder of people and would certainly engage Iran in a war, if not regionally then globally, he'd better make sure he has the Iranian people on board. I think part of what he's doing is getting the Iranian people to accept that this is a good outcome, that this is worthwhile. I talk about the fact that I think his words are having that effect around the world. I think they're certainly having that effect at home.
There is an ecosystem of hate against Israel that has been forming and that has already come into existence. And he is the leader, if you will. He is the one who is setting the tone, making the statements from the highest position of office. It's sad, but I think it's extremely effective.
