Tehran, Iran, Feb. 08 – Iran’s Islamic
Revolutionary Guards Corps have said that German Chancellor Angela Merkel
sees herself as former German dictator Adolf
Hitler.
The IRGC’s spokesman, Brigadier General Massoud Jazayeri, told the
Persian-language website Hemaseh, “The way Europe is dealing
with the case of Iran’s peaceful
nuclear energy program shows the weaknesses and uselessness of countries
such as Britain, France, and Germany. This weakness
is in particular clearly noticeable in speeches by newcomers such as the
German Chancellor”.
“Merkel in her childish dreams imagines herself as Hitler and therefore
thinks that now that she is leaning against the Chancellorship’s chair she
can give orders to the world and free countries”, Jazayeri
said.
“From individuals who have a Zionist background nothing less is expected”,
the IRGC spokesman added.
In Munich on Saturday,
Merkel compared hard-line Iranian President Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad to Hitler.
Commenting on Iran’s likely
intent to acquire nuclear weapons, Merkel said that the world must not
repeat the mistakes it made in appeasing the Nazis.
“Looking back to German history in the early 1930s when National Socialism
was on the rise, there were many outside Germany who said, ‘It’s only
rhetoric — don’t get excited”, she said
“Iran has blatantly crossed the red line”, she added.
“I say this as a German chancellor, a president who questions Israel’s right to
exist, a president who denies the Holocaust cannot
expect to receive any tolerance from Germany.”
