Newly re-elected whackjob, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, covers himself in glory yet again.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8263548.stm

Speaking in the capital, Tehran, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said the Holocaust was a "a lie based on an unprovable and mythical claim".

I recall some posters in this part of the forum make the claim that Ahmadinejad was misunderstood or his words were mis-quoted and he was not a holocaust denier at all.

Any Ahmadinejad apologists still around?
 
Total silence, as expected, from the "stop defaming Ahmadenijad, you zionist!" crowd.
 
Was this really necessary? I mean, once someone denies the holocaust, it's only news if they then go back on that. You don't need to tell us Eidjit is still an Eidjit, only if s/he has ceased to be one.

Yes, but some members here have claimed that he never really denied the holocaust. That's who I was seeking a response (and perhaps an admission of error) from.

:jaw-dropp

Didn't he say it was a, "myth?"

Doesn't myth => fictional?

Therefore, the thinks the Holocaust was fictional, which is Holocaust denial?

Let me know if and where I went wrong in that reasoning.

You assumed his defenders on this board apply reasoning.

:eek: Wow. Misunderstood, huh? They must have been Jake Gyllenhaal fans.

 
Is he just trolling to get Israel or others to respond in force, in order to be martyred and cause a greater war to begin? I can't help but wonder about the timing here. Maybe the guy is just plain nuts and wants to provoke a reaction.
 
It's ironic that Muslims and Arabs deny the Holocaust on one hand and, on the other hand, have a history of embracing Hitler and Nazism.
