The following are excerpts from an interview with Iranian political analyst Majid Goudarzi, which aired on the Iranian news channel (IRINN) on February 20, 2007.

Majid Goudarzi: I don’t believe that a regime like the Zionist regime is legitimate, let alone that it will ever accept peace. Its very existence involves aggression, war, terrorism, and killing. It cannot stop these methods. This is even repeated in their Torah several times. In the Book of Exodus and the Book of Numbers, it is said several times that Moses called this people corrupt. They are genetically bloodthirsty and criminal, and therefore, they cannot give up their criminal character.
