(Ahlul Bayt News Agency) - According to a report by Palestine Today news website, Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman in an interview with Channel 10 of Israeli television used harsh and provocative remarks against Abbas and asked for the assassination of the PA chief or his seizure in Ramallah when he returns from Iran.
Abbas is in Tehran to attend the Non-Aligned Movement (NAM) summit meeting.
Despite the fact that his call for assassinating Abbas is a blatant case of state-sponsored terrorism, the Israeli foreign minister used vulgar language to insult over 120 NAM member states calling them all "terrorists".
"The fact that Abbas attended terrorists' summit in Tehran is a black day in Israel's history," Liberman said.
Abbas, heading a high-ranking delegation, arrived in Tehran on Wednesday to attend the 16th Non-Aligned Movement summit in the Iranian capital.
The United States and Israel are fearful that the summit drawing a reported 50 or more heads of state and government will give Tehran a boost in legitimacy and rally disgruntled states to its defense of its nuclear programs.
The Islamic Republic's three-year tenure as head of the NAM is a chance for Tehran to elevate its international standing as the United States seeks to cripple its economy and isolate it diplomatically over its disputed nuclear program.
Many analysts say that the diplomatic spotlight will give Tehran an opportunity to show Washington has failed to cut it off from the rest of the world.
