"Ever since Hitler we have not seen a [man] like Ahmadinejad who wishes to destroy Israel," Strategic Affairs Minister Avigdor Lieberman said Monday at the Knesset.

Lieberman was responding to a no-confidence motion proposed by the NU/NRP and United Torah Judaism parties,

"We have not been sitting idly. This government has many shortcomings, but there has never been an [Israeli] government that treated the issue so thoroughly," he said, adding that Israeli was acting in full cooperation with the US on the matter.
