      Der iranische Präsident Mahmoud Ahmadinejad hat seine Drohungen gegen den Staat Israel angesichts des Kriegs im Gazastreifen erneuert.
      Das «zionistische Regime» habe in der Region des Nahen Ostens keinen Platz, sagte Ahmadinejad. Die Kämpfe im Gazastreifen seien eine grosse Lektion für alle und zeigten Verzweiflung und Niederlage des Regimes, sagte der Präsident weiter. Auch Unterstützer Israels müssten inzwischen einsehen, dass die Koexistenz nicht möglich sei.
      Ahmadinejad nannte Israel nicht beim Namen, sondern sprach wie gewöhnlich nur abfällig vom «zionistischen Regime». Ahmadinejad hat Israel bereits wiederholt gedroht und das Existenzrecht des Staates infrage gestellt.

  15. JCPA – Averting Iranian Influence in Post-War Gaza: The Rehabilitation Issue – Shimon Shapira
    Immediately upon the end of the fighting in Gaza, the international community will enlist on behalf of an extensive rehabilitation project to enable the Palestinian population to return to their homes and get on with their civil and economic lives.
    It is of prime importance to prevent Iran from acquiring influence in post-war Gaza through any assistance programs.
    Following the Second Lebanon War in 2006, Iran and Hizbullah grasped the political and economic significance of the rehabilitation project in the Shiite areas of southern Lebanon damaged during the war. Hizbullah directed the rehabilitation work, while totally ignoring the central Lebanese government, and in this manner regained and even reinforced its influence within the Shiite community.

  17. newsmax.com– The Time Clock Has Run Out: Israel Ready to Strike Iran – Monday, January 12, 2009 3:56 PM – By: Jim Meyers 
    Informed sources in Washington tell Newsmax that Israel indeed will launch a strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities soon – possibly in just days as President George W. Bush prepares to leave office.
    The reason: The time clock has begun to run out. Iran is close to acquiring a nuclear device under the control of its radical president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.
    International Atomic Energy Agency Director General Mohamed ElBaradei said in June that Iran would have a nuclear weapon in as little as six months.
    That six-month period has passed.

  23. derstandard.at- Neue Verbotswelle im Iran
    BBC Persia: Infominister warnt vor Zusammenarbeit – Zwei kritische Titel wurden verboten
    Die iranischen Behörden verschärften ihre Gangart gegen kritische Medien. „Hamshahri“, auflagenstärkste Tageszeitung des Iran mit einer halben Million verkauften Exemplaren, verwarnten sie wegen einer Reportage über Drogenprobleme im Iran. Verwarnungen gelten als Vorstufen für Erscheinungsverbote. „Hamshahri“ kritisiert vermehrt die Regierung von Präsident Mahmud Ahmadi-Nejad und steht dem Teheraner Oberbürgermeister Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf nahe, dem Ambitionen auf das Präsidentenamt nachgesagt werden.
    Eine neue Welle der Verbote setzt die Medienszene im Iran unter Druck. Zwei kritische Titel wurden verboten. Kargosaran etwa veröffentlichte den Protestbrief einer Studentengruppe, die sich kritisch zum Konflikt zwischen Israel und Hamas in Gaza äußerte. Parallel zum Verbot unabhängiger Medien starteten neue konservative Blätter, die trotz großen Aufwands wenige Leser finden.

    In an analysis, the Research and News Studies Office of the official Iranian news agency IRNA states that a U.S. „nuclear gift“ to Saudi Arabia reveals one of the main reasons for that country’s silence in the face of Israel’s crimes against humanity.     
    An IRNA report stated that Saudi’s sobering silence against the Israeli war crimes in Gaza prompted Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to send a letter to Saudi King Abdullah calling for a clear stance vis-à-vis the massacre in Gaza.      
    The report added that what was ignored in the past three weeks by the Western and even the regional media was the signing of an agreement on nuclear cooperation between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia.      
    It added that the signing of the deal is significant because the U.S. is continuing with its double-standard policy on nuclear energy, and that Washington is also working on similar deals with Jordan, Egypt and Bahrain.
