At least this as far as I have seen.
I sure hope you're right. Other translations I have read (of that particular quote) quoted him thus: "The current Zionist regime must vanish from the pages of time." I don't trust the leadership of Iran at all - can someone cite an example of a reason anyone should? (I'm not talking about the US or Europe or anyone else, simply the integrity or lack of it among the current Iranian leadership)
