Ahmadinejad has said numerous things about Israel, none of them pleasant and many of them are considered incitements to violence.
His most famous statement is "Israel will be wiped off the map." Most Iranian Government Officials and Iranian-sympathizers note that it is in the passive voice, and claim that it is a historical statement. Those who oppose the Iranian State say that this along with shouts of "Death to Israel", "Israel is the Little Satan", etc. and direct monetary and military arms support to Hezbollah and Hamas show a direct intent to be part of the "wiping Israel off the map". They further claim that the passive sentence structure is to obfuscate this intent.
Ahmadinejad also does not usually refer to Israel by name, instead considering it the "Zionist entity", the "Zionist Occupier", the "Jewish Murderers", etc.

What do you think the Iran president will do to Israel?
Iran's president will rail about the zionist Israel, claiming that they have no right to exist, and attempt to provoke other countries to respond. If countries do respond, it only helps his cause and helps to highlight it. This cause only serves to further nationalist sentiment, and distract from domestic issues. He is all talk and little action.From the links below:"Well, Ahmadinejad is a ceremonial president. He is a little bit more active, has stronger links to the Iranian Revolutionary Guards Corps than his predecessor, Mohammad Khatami, who, by the way -- the previous president of Iran -- has upbraided Ahmadinejad for his comments regarding Holocaust denial. So Ahmadinejad is -- he is not commander-in-chief of the armed forces. He can't order anybody to kill anybody. He can't launch a war. He can't launch missiles. Those powers are vested in the Supreme Jurisprudent, the Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Ahmadinejad can, you know, cut the ribbons and open bridges and things like that. So the American right's fascination with him is entirely misplaced, and it's because he's a quirky character and he has objectionable views, and so it's easy to use him to demonize Iran." JUAN COLETrita Parsi is author of Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran and the United States. Our guest also, Ervand Abrahamian, Iran expert, Distinguished Professor at Baruch College. I wanted, Professor Abrahamian, to read from Juan Cole's piece, who says, talking about Ahmadinejad, "He has been depicted as a Hitler figure intent on killing Israeli Jews, even though he is not commander in chief of the Iranian armed forces, has never invaded any other country, denies he is an anti-Semite, has never called for any Israeli civilians to be killed, and allows Iran's 20,000 Jews to have representation in Parliament," that Khamenei is the one with the real power.Iran is the country that is in danger. It is not a danger to anyone.

The question as posed is impossible to answer. Reasons: Israel was the Northern Kingdom and Judah was the Southern Kingdom.
