Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says there is no need to take up arms against Israel in order to destroy it.

Criticizing the regional countries for buying billions of dollars worth of weaponry from certain powers, Ahmadinejad said, “If their objective for buying these weapons is to fight with the Zionist regime (Israel), they should know that a war is not necessary for destroying the regime.”

“If the regional countries cut their ties with the Zionists and give the Zionist regime (Israel) a small frown, this fabricated regime will be over,” President Ahmadinejad added.

The Iranian chief executive made the remarks in the city of Kashmar in the eastern province of Khorasan Razavi on Saturday.

The president also criticized certain regional rulers for spending their oil revenues on USD 60 billion worth of [Western] arms.

In December 2011, the US formally announced a USD 30-billion arms deal with Saudi Arabia which included the sales of F-15 fighter jets to the Arab monarchy.

The deal is part of a multi-year arms agreement between Washington and Riyadh, unveiled in October 2010, which is worth a whopping USD 60 billion overall.

The Iranian president also slammed the massacre of Afghan civilians at the hands of the US military forces stationed in Afghanistan.
