(JNS.org) Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei has written a 416-page book titled Palestine that details his long-term plan to destroy Israel, the Gatestone Institute think tank reported. Khamenei states that his plan is rooted in “well-established Islamic principles” rather than the “European phenomenon” of antisemitism, according to Iranian-born author Amir Taheri.  “One such [Islamic principle] is that a land that falls under Muslim rule, even briefly, can never again be ceded to non-Muslims,” Taheri wrote. “What matters in Islam is control of a land’s government, even if the majority of inhabitants are non-Muslims.”

The book, according to Taheri, “has received approval from Khamenei’s office and is thus the most authoritative document regarding his position on the issue.”
