Iranian president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad suggested Friday that a referendum be held in "Palestine" to determine where the Jews should be transferred to. The choice, he said, should be between Europe, Canada and Alaska.

"There should be a referendum in Palestine," he said. "This is our offer to Europe. Muslims, Christians and Jews should participate in the referendum," he added.

Ahmadinejad was speaking before participants in a protest march marking "Al Kuds Day" in Iran ["Al Kuds" means "the Holy" in Arabic, and is a contraction that refers to Jerusalem, site of what Arabic sources call Bayt Al-Makdis, or Beit Hamikdash in Hebrew and the Temple in English.] He was quoted by Iranian news agency IRNA.
