| Ahmadinejad slams West on Holocaust |
| 2009-01-28 |
| Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says Western countries have blocked research on the Holocaust to achieve their political objectives. Not too sure how much "research" is required on something that people still alive could see, touch, and smell. "Western countries have prevented any kind of research on the Holocaust for almost 60 years to maintain their dominance over other nations," President Ahmadinejad said in a written message to a conference on the Holocaust on Tuesday. That's right. We did it just to cheese you off, Short Round. The Holocaust - as defined by the West - has been used as a tool for countries including the US to prevent the emergence of any other power in the world, the message added. President Ahmadinejad has been accused of harboring ill-will towards Israel and his criticism of European laws which ban research on the Holocaust. The President however said in a September interview with CNN's Larry King that he saw a line between Zionism and Judaism. "Iranians have nothing against the Jewish people or their religion," President Ahmadinejad said. "How can you be religious and kill women and children at the same time?" he argued. It's not easy, but when the bad guys put the women and kiddies in front of them it can be done. In the interview, President Ahmadinejad also added that the Israeli regime would disappear in the same way as apartheid South Africa and the Soviet Union. Iranian officials have repeatedly maintained that they do not recognize Israel and have condemned West's 'support' of Tel Aviv. |

| #4 Ahmadinejad should go back to torturing prisoners every now and then, he would feel better and would not make as many asinine statements. |

| #1 President Ahmadinejad has been accused of harboring ill-will towards Israel. Does it get any more dhimmi than this statement? Why didn't the writer say, "has a bone to pick or is cross with Israel?" |
