Iran leader: Holocaust a 'myth'

[Psycho4Bud]

TEHRAN, Iran (CNN) -- Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has described the Holocaust as "a myth" and suggested that Israel be moved to Europe, the United States, Canada or Alaska.

Germany, the United States, the European Commission and Israel condemned the remark, with German Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier calling it "shocking and unacceptable."

The Israeli government said Ahmadinejad's regime had "a distorted sense of reality."

Ahmadinejad sparked widespread international condemnation in October when he called for Israel to be "wiped off the map."

Last week he also expressed doubt about the killing by the Nazis of six million Jews during World War II, but Wednesday was the first occasion when he said in public that the Holocaust was a myth.

"They have invented a myth that Jews were massacred and place this above God, religions and the prophets," Ahmadinejad said in a speech to thousands of people in the Iranian city of Zahedan, according to a report on Wednesday from Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB).

"The West has given more significance to the myth of the genocide of the Jews, even more significant than God, religion, and the prophets," he said. "(It) deals very severely with those who deny this myth but does not do anything to those who deny God, religion, and the prophet."

"If you have burned the Jews, why don't you give a piece of Europe, the United States, Canada or Alaska to Israel," Ahmadinejad said.

And the most amazing part to this is that people, even here on this forum, still think that Iran is entitled to become a nuclear power.

Would anybody in their right mind think that the KKK should have nuclear weapons?

"a piece of the United States... or Alaska." I read that on Google news this morning and had myself a nice chuckle.

Well it seems that Iranian President is just doing what he is told to do by TPTB I also find this intersting "Putin calls Russia defender of Islamic world." http://www.mosnews.com/news/2005/12/...imfriend.shtml
I believe Iran is ready for an attack by U.S. or israel I mean with all the new weapons that Russia been giving Iran they should be ready, so why not provoke them even more maybe Iran knows that once attacked, Russia & China will get involved. .

Russian weaponry is shit compared to what the U.S. or Israel has. If push come to shove, doesn't matter if it were the U.S. or Israel, Irans nuclear facilities would be dust! :thumbsup:

Remember, Sadamm had the best of what Russia had to offer in the Gulf War.

Russia is the most reliable partner of the Islamic world and most faithful defender of its interests, Russian President Vladimir Putin said in Chechnyaâ??s capital Grozny.


I'm sure that 9 out of 10 Chechins agree.

Not including 30,000 nucleur weapons, obviously. It is possible to bomb iranian nucleur facilities, but then what? They would rebuild, disperse, and likely be way crazier than ever. The alterantive is to set back and hope internal poiltical change occurs. Neither option is all that good. Lack of good options? Sounds a little like NK.

It won't be us but watch out for Israel. There's a reason why they purchased all those bunker buster bombs.

Wow that guy has some issues. Anyone ever reflect on the thoughts that must run through that mans head? Like when he looks at the world does he see what everyone else sees? or is it completely distorted ie: halocaust never happened. Scary thing is..you know that speech he gave...some of those people are going to believe what he said.
