Bush: Iran President's Threats to Destroy Israel Must Be Taken Seriously

(Reuters/Washington Post) Noah Barkin - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's threats to destroy Israel should be taken seriously and suggest he could target other countries as well, President Bush told the German weekly Bild am Sonntag. "When he says that he wants to destroy Israel, the world needs to take it seriously," Bush said. "This is a serious threat, aimed at an ally of the United States and Germany.
