So your article concedes the two important things:

1. He did make the assertion, but rather quoted someone else.
2. Even when quoting, he did not say "map".

But the larger point is that his words are generally transmitted to the American public (and in particular to Jews) to mean he wants to wipe out the Jews in Israel, when it is quite clear he is talking about removing the racist apartheid Zionist regime.

LOL, Israeli propaganda outfit MEMRI didn't get the memo, and they accidentally translated the speech accurately:

"This regime that is occupying Qods [Jerusalem] must be eliminated from the pages of history"

memri.org

<<< The fact that he compared his desired option - the elimination of "the regime occupying Jerusalem" - with the fall of the Shah's regime in Iran makes it crystal clear that he is talking about regime change, not the end of Israel. As a schoolboy opponent of the Shah in the 1970's he surely did not favour Iran's removal from the page of time. He just wanted the Shah out. >>>
