Ahmadinejad calls Israel's Netanyahu a 'skilled killer'

Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad lashed out at Benjamin Netanyahu in an interview with CNN's Larry King Wednesday, calling the Israeli prime minister a "skilled killer" who "should be put on trial for killing women and children."

The Iranian president denied that international sanctions were hurting his country, and refused to commit to meeting President Barack Obama if the opportunity arose.

Ahmadinejad also deflected questions about Iran's nuclear program, saying Iran has "no interest" in a nuclear bomb and that no one is concerned about Iran's intentions other than "the Zionist regime and some American authorities."

    Americas own scientist (german) are the most skilled at the art of killing. We got Doctors and Lawyers taking oaths to never go against the gov so they can kill all they want and get away with it. The BAR Assoiactions is a big helper, investigate the Doctors and Lawyers of America. They have given me Lung Cancer and wont compensate me or my family and we have numerous diseases that will affect my family for generations to come. thx evil scientist crawl into your hole and pray....

    He couldn't be more wrong. If Netanyahu was such a skilled killer, Ahmadinejad would be dead already.

    Define irony then multiply by X. It's often said self awareness is a sign of intelligence so what can be said about Ahmadinejad .

    We need to remove the U.N. from American Soil. They are a joke and a soapbox for pieces of crap who are not trying to help the world or even their own country. Stop the U.N. – it does nothing for America. Ever. Except ask for more money and troops.

      Iran does not have any Nuclear sites. They have one little power plant that couldn't power Dallas. He is like the Mouse that Roared. No one has dared to give him a nuke. He has more Semetic Jews and Christian Churchs than Israel. Do Your Research People.

    Yes Pure Facts, 95 percent of you have no idea why you hate him, But yet you do. This is the same mentality that got us into Afghnistan and even more so IRAQ. Get Over Yourselves. He Made a statement In this Interview, Is it True Or Not?

    Methinks if the little man thought Netenyahu was really such a skilled killer, he'd tone his screeching down some.
