Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that in order to solve the Israel-Palestinian conflict, the "Palestinians should go home," and "those that were brought [to Israel]" should as well, AFP reported.
Ahmadinejad said that this program would provide a "simple solution" to the "Zionist regime" should it wish "to solve the issue."
The Iranian president made the comments during a two-day International Conference on Palestine, attended by diplomats from more than 20 nations.
Earlier on Sunday, Ahmadinejad asked whether the Palestinian issue was an Arab issue or a problem between the Arab nations on the one side and some western countries on the other side, according to the IRNA news agency.
He then questioned whether it "was a problem between khamArab nations on the one hand and some Jews who have occupied the Palestinian lands on the other."
Ahmadinejad's comments a day after Iran's supreme ruler, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, came out against a two state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict while speaking during at the conference.
Khamenei said that the creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel amounts to a renouncement of the Palestinian rights, asserting that any solution to the conflict must be based on a principle of "the whole Palestine for all Palestinians," PressTV reported.
