Thanks, to be honest whether that is a factor or not I just look at the clear statements made and of course followed by real world actions, ie sponsoring other terrorists to wipe Israel off the map.

Israel should be wiped off map, says Iran's president
Iran's new president created a sense of outrage in the west yesterday by describing Israel as a "disgraceful blot" that should be "wiped off the face of the earth". Mahmoud Ahmadinejad who is more hardline than his predecessor, told students in Tehran that a new wave of Palestinian attacks would be enough to finish off Israel.

Iran will wipe Israel off the face of the earth!
Israel is an artificial creature in the Middle East and will disappear completely, Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Thursday ahead of anti-Israel rallies to be held in Iranian cities on Friday.
