Arrest Ahmadinejad


Irwin Cotler is calling for the arrest and trial of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, for incitement to genocide. Cotler is a former Canadian Minister of Justice and the current human rights critic for the Liberal Party. There is precedent, he said, in the conviction of several Rwandans, including a former prime minister, on such charges by an international court.

From The Jerusalem Post:

...what you have today is the toxic convergence of the advocacy of the most horrific of crimes, namely genocide, embedded in the most virulent of ideologies, namely anti-Semitism, dramatized by the parading in the streets of Teheran of a Shihab-3 missile draped in the emblem with the words, 'Wipe Israel off the map, as the imam says,' proving that this is state sanctioned incitement to genocide.
