Iran President Ahmadinajad in his phone conversation with Syrian leader, Esad,  said that in case of an attack from Israel towards Syria, the reply will be very painy from the Islam world since this attack must be considered as an act towards the Islam world. Ahmadinajad also considered the possible attack from the Isreali side as a "foolish Zionist act".

Iranian President is everytime pointing out the Israeli government as a "Zionist regime" in his speeches.
