Vice Premier Shimon Peres said in the Herzliya Conference that "Israel should thank Nasrallah and Ahmadinejad… They did a great job of getting the world to unite under anti-Persian policy."
"Let him continue his speeches against Israel," Peres said, "Israel won't fall, Ahmadinejad will, he has nothing to offer to the world." (Yoav Kapshuk)
