[Elder Of Ziyon - Israel News] Iran says destroying Israel is top priority

From FARS News:

Iran's Ambassador to Beirut Qazanfar Roknabadi and leaders of over 30 Lebanese parties discussed the latest developments in the region, and stressed the need for exchanging their experiences to overcome the regional problems.

In the meeting on Saturday, the participants reviewed bilateral relations, the latest international and regional developments, Lebanon and Syria.

The Lebanese political activists also expressed support for Iran's peaceful nuclear program and also praised Iran's policy and stance, especially in defending Palestine.

Roknabadi, for his part, underlined Iran's support for resistance and said that on top of Iran's priorities is the issue of resistance against the Zionist regime.

Just in case you are unclear of what he means by "resistance," or if you think it is against the "occupation," read this section from Hezbollah's official program:

Our primary assumption in our fight against Israel states that the Zionist entity is aggressive from its inception, and built on lands wrested from their owners, at the expense of the rights of the Muslim people. Therefore our struggle will end only when this entity is obliterated.

Hezbollah is part of the "resistance" Iran is referring to.

Iran is saying clearly, in its own media, that Israel's destruction is its top priority - not pursuit of nuclear power, not fixing its economy, not human rights, not advancing Islam.

Just destroying Israel.
