You can research the golan heights and the sheba farms to get an idea of israeli aggresion, and I believe he was taken out of context, he said that but also said the zionist controlled state needs to be removed.
Here's the context blown. Do explain how it is "taken out of".
Our dear Imam [Ruhollah Khomeini] ordered that the occupying regime in Al-Qods [Israel] be wiped off the face of the earth. This was a very wise statement. The issue of Palestine is not one on which we could make a piecemeal compromiseÂ… This would mean our defeat. Anyone who would recognize this state [Israel] has put his signature under the defeat of the Islamic world.
Israel is to be "Wiped Off The Face Of The Earth".
Sure seems plain to me blown. Do correct my vision tho with your "double-speak" filter.
