Ahmadinejad IS AT Colubmia [10]: Finally he gets to the point ... It's all about the Palestinians

He closed with a ringing attack on Israel and the treatment of the Palestinians. This is what it's all about.

Then he slips into the Holocaust and claims that those who want to research the Holocaust from "a different perspective" are put in jail. Why is that so?

It's one of his slippery moments. His call for more research regarding the Holocaust is what Shiraz Dossa, a professor in Canada who went to the meeting in Iran, calls "Holocaust neutrality." [Dossa is trying to legitimize questioning the Holocaust.] But Holocaust neutrality is naught but denial.

Now Coatsworth is pushing him to answer a question: Do you seek the destruction of Israel as a Jewish state?

Long discourse. But no answer.

Coatsworth tries to get him to answer.

To no avail.

Is that an allusion on his part to David Irving (regarding the put in jail part)?

David Irving, Ernst Zundel, and others. Yes that's it.

This guy's not visiting the USA to preach peace, but to threaten all manner of mischief, he will then sit in some hotel room awaiting an envoy from the USA State Department's Office who wishes to respectfully enquire do the 'Iranian people' want a new Olympic size sports stadium, a University or an Hospital, or how about 50 schools, these Arab statesmen are not schmucks and take it from me he'll get whatever he's came for, which in an 101 different languages [including bribery] it spells a massive 'Uncle Sam payoff cheque' Its all a bluff!

...these Arab statesmen...

Ahmendinejad is not an Arab. Arabs make up only 3% of Iran's population.

Ian is absolutely right. I should have caught and did not. In this case Muslim would be the correct term.

Thanks Ian.
