• W57909467 abstract "Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad made international headlines when on October 27, 2005, he declared in Persian that Iran would wipe off the map. Some commentators in the United States, most notably University of Michigan professor Juan Cole, argued that the phrase was a mistranslation and that Ahmadinejad did not have genocidal intent.1 But, the Islamic Republic's official English translation rendered the phrase Israel must be wiped off the map,2 and the regime reiterated its English translation on billboards and murals.3 Iranian statements demonizing are not new and, indeed, have long been part of Iranian political and religious culture,4 but they have acquired new significance in the light of Iran's pursuit of nuclear enrichment technology, its development of missile delivery systems, and its support of terror proxies. Tel Aviv University professor Meir Litvak has extensively chronicled official Iranian anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial.5 Background It was under the shah that the government began a massive dissemination of the Protocols of the Elders ofZion, the hundred-year old Russian forgery alleging a Jewish plot to take over the world; its publication was subsidized and was made even more widely available after the Islamic Revolution. Excoriation of was a frequent theme in Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini's writings going back to the 1970s. In his famous Hukumat-i Islami (Islamic governance),6 the 1970 book which laid out the philosophy of clerical rule, Khomeini referred to wretched and offered allusions to Islamic history to depict as a source of corruption among Muslims, asking God to curse them.7 Khomeini declared, for example, that the Jews . . . wish to establish Jewish domination . . . Since they are a cunning and resourceful group of people, I fear that . . . they may one day achieve their goal,8 and that the Jews have grasped the world with both hands and are devouring it with an insatiable appetite; they are devouring America and have now turned their attention to Iran and still they are not satisfied.9 After the Islamic Revolution, statements calling for the eradication of and hate language using dehumanizing medical metaphors to describe and became commonplace although Khomeini began substituting the word Zionist for Jew.10 The Iranian leadership has made such statements more frequently since Ahmadinejad assumed office in 2005. While Khomeini's image personifies radicalism in the West, it was his successor, Grand Ayatollah Sayyid'Ali Hosayni Khamane'i, who began to dehumanize as a cancerous tumor,11 a term he and his allies have continued to use through the years. However, the frequency and intensity of such anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist statements fluctuates across time. Evidence suggests that Iranian leaders' genocidal rhetoric declines in frequency as the international community augments pressure. Conversely, when diplomats engage with and relieve pressure on the Islamic Republic, the severity of Iranian oratory increases - a trend present through March 2009. Rhetoric matters and words kill. The U.N. Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of Genocide and Incitement to Genocide specifies that incitement to genocide is a crime against humanity.12 Since the Holocaust, genocide scholars have identified hate language and incitement - notably the use of dehumanizing medical metaphors - as predictors, promoters, and catalysts of genocidal agendas in Cambodia, Yugoslavia, Rwanda, and the Sudan.13 Gregory Gordon, former legal officer of the International Criminal Tribunal for Rwanda, has written that genocide cannot occur without incitement. He has outlined the legal tools available for the international legal community to deal with incitement to genocide and spelled out five questions relevant to defining such incitement: Where was the statement made? Is it sufficiently public? Is it sufficiently direct? …" @default.
