Khamenei seeks death penalty for Israeli leaders

Especially cruel appeared he for his leaders asking essentially for their death. Iran’s highest leader Ali Hameney, who supports Hamas and Hezbollah militants fighting against Israel in Gaza and Lebanon, said that for Israeli leaders death sentences should be issued rather than arrest warrants. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei commented on the decision of the International Criminal Court last week to issue arrest warrants against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, former country Defence Minister Joav Galand as well as Hamas leader Ibrahim Al-Masri. “They issued an arrest warrant, not enough… The death penalty should be issued for these criminal leaders,” Khamenei said, referring to Israeli leaders.
