Ahmadinajad
Does Ahmadinajad think that his awful anti-Semitic discourse on the Holocaust helps the Palestinian people? I saw him today on ABC News: he so contradicts himself. On the one hand, he insists that Arabs had nothing to do with the holocaust and that it happened in Europe. And then in the same paragraph, he calls for rexamination of the records regarding the holocaust. What is his point really, except to rehash classical anti-Semitic jargon? But he made one good point (the first in his life as far as I am concerned). In response to a question about the Iranian position if the Palestinians select on their own to support the two-state solution. He answered by asking whether the West would support the Palestinian free choice if it was around the one-state solution.
