IRIB: "Hezbollah rockets killed 10 Zionists"

Here is a sample of today's news reporting at Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting. The effect of substituting the word "Zionist" for the word "Israeli" or "Jew" or "person" is interesting. The death toll is up to 11 for the following incident, by the way:
Ten Zionists were killed on Sunday in the deadliest rocket attack yet since the regime incursion into Lebanon as a barrage of Hezbollah missiles fell on a northern border town.

The rockets landed in the town of Kfar Giladi in the Galilee region.

"There are 10 killed and 20 wounded of whom one person is in a desperate state," said Eli Bin, the director general of the Zionist regime's Red Cross.

More from IRIB: "Zionists lost their phony importance":
Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hamid-Reza Asefi said Sunday that the Zionist regime suffered the harshest blow during the invasion of Lebanon by losing its phony significance.

Speaking in his weekly press conference, Asefi said that another blow to the regime was mounting hatred of the world public opinion towards the occupying regime.

"The Zionist regime is the most disgusting and isolated entity in the world," he said, adding the regime must bite its hand why it invaded Lebanon.

"If the regime knew the was may last a month, it would neevr attack Lebanon," Asefi asserted, adding the trend of war shows that the Lebanese resistance is the final victor.
More: "Syria ready for regional war: FM":
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid Muallem said on Sunday that Damascus was ready for regional war and will respond immediately to any Zionists' attack.

"We will respond to any Zionists' aggression immediately," he said on his arrival in Lebanon for an Arab foreign ministers' meeting on the Zionist regime's devastating 26-day-old offensive against its northern neighbour.

Asked by reporters in the main northern city of Trablos about the possibility of a regional war, Muallem said: "welcome to the regional war."
