Iran's supreme leader calls for ethnically cleansing Jews from "Palestine"

From AFP:
Supreme leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said Saturday that Iran backs "the undivided country of Palestine which belongs to the Palestinians," adding that "Palestine will return to the arms of Islam, without any doubt."

"We believe that the country of Palestine belongs in its entirety to the Palestinians."

As usual, it loses something in the translation.

From Palestine Today:

Ayatollah Khamenei reiterated that the only solution to settle the Palestinian issue is "to allow Palestinians to decide for themselves their next government through a referendum" and "to allow this government to decide what to do Zionists who came from abroad."
This of course means any Israeli Jew whose ancestors lived anywhere else before 1917, or 1880, would be force to leave their homes.

Why does the Western media downplay the racist statements of Iranian leaders?
