Ahmadinejad: Holocaust 'big lie' used to justify establishment of Israel

[King_David]

Millions of people attend state-run anti-Israel rallies throughout Iran to voice support for Palestinians and its liberation from what they call Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories.


Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Friday that the Holocaust was a "big lie" used to justify establishment of the state of Israel.

"The Zionist regime's establishment was based on numerous deceptions and lies and one of the biggest lies was the Holocaust," Ahmadinejad said in a speech after an anti-Israeli rally in Tehran and other Iranian cities.

The late supreme leader of the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Grand Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, declared the last Friday of the fasting month of Ramadan to be Qods, or Jerusalem, Day and called for annual mass rallies against Israel and in support of the Palestinians.

The president provoked international condemnation in 2005 when he said that Israel should be eliminated from the map of the Middle East and transferred to Europe or North America.

The international isolation of the Islamic republic escalated after Ahmadinejad held a Holocaust conference in 2006 in which he questioned whether the killing of 6 million Jews in Europe during World War II actually happened

1. Hugo Chavez' best friend. He keeps real good company.

He's a nut job - why anyone pays him any attention is beyond me.

3. Perhaps if the "responsible" governments hadn't come to the rescue

of Venezuela's wailing rich, he might not have had to cozy up to every nutcase out there.

In any case, he's got fewer friends all the time as long as he buys into the "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" fallacy.

4. How does it make you feel knowing the US was friends with Saddam,

Khadafi, and even Bin Laden? Who do you think propped these folks up?

It's too complicated for you obviously, so don't bother.
