Iranian student news agency ISNA has reported
that hardline students have threatened to kill Israeli military leaders and have already offered rewards for their deaths.

The rewards total a million dollars for the so-called execution of three Israeli military officials over the deadly strikes on Gaza.

The students have also encouraged Iranians to donate their kidneys to pay for even higher rewards on the heads of Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak, Mossad spy agency director Meir Dagan, and military intelligence chief Amos Yadlin.

The organisers say the rewards would be given to "any person or their families who could punish these individuals in any part of the world".

Pictures taken at a student rally showed a banner bearing pictures of the three Israelis against the backdrop of an Israeli flag, with rifle sights stencilled onto the foreheads of the trio.

At least 132 Palestinians, including several dozen children, have died in Israeli strikes since late February. Four Israeli soldiers and nine civilians have died over the same period.
