Figures.

Deadly earthquake in Iran. News agencies have the casualty figures at 40,000 as of this morning. Although Iran is a country that has explicitly and repeatedly threatened to nuke Israel, nonetheless Israel offered condolences and aid.

Iran responded to that gesture:

Jahanbakhsh Khanjani, a spokesman for Iran's Interior Ministry, said Saturday that Iran would accept aid from all countries of the world, aside from Israel...
"The Islamic Republic of Iran accepts all kinds of humanitarian aid from all countries and international organizations with the exception of the Zionist regime [Israel]," Khanjani said.

Touching.

UPDATE: LGF has the same story from a slightly different angle - AFP bias.
