JERUSALEM-ON-THE-LINE
Prayer Letter – March 23, 2006
IRAN’S AIM TO 'SET ISRAEL ALIGHT': Former Spanish prime minister Jose Maria Aznar, in a recent visit to Israel, said that Iran's Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told him five years ago that "setting Israel on fire" was the first order of business on the Iranian agenda. "He received me politely and at the beginning of the meeting he explained to me why Iran must declare war on Israel and the United States until they are completely destroyed." Aznar, in Israel as the guest of the Interdisciplinary Center in Herzliya, related the story to Major General Professor Yitzhak Ben-Israel, who later confirmed to Haaretz that the remarks had been made. Khamenei still holds the post of Iranian spiritual leader, and is considered to be the most powerful man in the country. (Haaretz) “Like a flitting sparrow, like a flying swallow, so a curse without cause shall not alight.” Proverbs 26:2
