2. Not worthy of the leader of Iran??
Bung ,   ca canada   (09.18.09)
Britain says foolishly "This outburst is not worthy of the leader of Iran." Can this be serious? Does anyone in their right gourd think this so called leader is of any worth? Totally amazing! This is an animalistic thug, and the world is afraid of it. Only Israel can take this thing out and so it should.
3. Holocaust denial
Art Schwartz ,   IRVINE, CA.   (09.18.09)
As I have said--The day we take this pautz out, is the day the world will send roses to our doorsteps.
4. What stops Ahmadnatzi to look at all the evidence it wants?
Genuine Toseftat ,   Tveria   (09.19.09)
this is not for lack of evidence, but to argue the opposite, and justify the unjustifiable: an attack on Israel
5. Pointless
Tug ,   USA   (09.19.09)
I cannot understand why everyone feels they must jump up and condemn Ahmadinejad's comments on the Holocaust. It is like it is some religious ritual. In case you have not noticed, Ahmadinejad is not what one would call intelligent. Oh hell, the man is a dumbass. Yet everyone jumps every time this dumbass says more dumbass stuff, which is exactly what the dumbass wants.
6. 5. Nope Ahmadinejad has a Doctorate in Engineering
lydia ,   Brisbane   (09.19.09)
So he is no dummy. Better than Bush the younger whose degree was in cheer leading.

8. german fm, and everybody else.....
les ,   canada   (09.19.09)
"pointless" you sure have a good point! since a huge portion of the iranian people are well educated, smart and decent, that little clown must be a real embarrasment for them. history have a way to earase them, and throw them on the garbage dump where they belong!
9.  German FM: Ahmadinejad is a disgrace to Iran
R C ,   Rincon USA   (09.19.09)
From what I have been reading lately, rape and sodomy is the new rage against Iranian reformers , Khatami and Mousavi should wear rear end protectors (butt plugs) just in case. Ahmadinejad and his Mullahs deny the Holocaust. Isn't history taught in Iran. Even the Germans admit the Holocaust. Ahmadinejad and his mullahs are making Iranians and Muslims look foolish. What a shame to Iran.
10. Ahmadinejad
Mohamad ,   OC CA   (09.19.09)
All we have to do with this dumbass is to support his opposition and condem the thugs that are running the country by force and killig people
11. Smoke and mirrors
Sarah B ,   New York City, USA   (09.19.09)
Iran is scrambling to deflect attention away from itself. What's interesting is that Iran is doing is on two fronts: international and domestic. Ahmedinejad is desperate. Unemployment in Iran is around 25%. The sanctions have been painful. There is much discontent among Iran's discontented youth, who no longer wish to chafe under the bit of Islamic law. Internationally -- well, Iran is a joke. Like the rest of the rejectionist world, there are no accurate maps of the Middle East to be found in any Iranian classroom. The State of Israel is not depicted, but "Palestine" is. As if wishing it were so could make it happen. Iran is a basket case. They have poured all their oil revenues into fast-tracking a nuclear weapon. While the people starve. I am hard-pressed to decide whether the current regime in Iran need be more fearful of Israel or of disaffected Iranians. Either way ---- the Islamic Republic's days are numbered. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of medieval mullahs. wouldn't you agree?
12. I really do not ubderstand
Israeli 2   (09.19.09)
What evidence does this meshuga want? Let him visit the concentration camps in Europe and let him talk to the German government and let them all investigate all the history and evidence out there for the world to see. End of story Shana Tova Gmar Chatima Tova Good News will come soon!!!
13. Why does this get news coverage?
Ali ,   Washington DC   (09.19.09)
The media coverage is the main reason this guy talks. If he is ignored he would stop or at least we would stop hearing it.
14. Don't dignify monkey-boy's comments
Nick ,   Devon, PA   (09.19.09)
with a reaction. Ignore his vitriol.
15. Pointless maybe but a duty
Atheist ,   Germany   (09.19.09)
Even if the Iran Pres..Dictator is simple and unteachable fanatic, if the world would accept his antisemitic statements and not counter loudly there would be still a lot of people out there in the world injudicious believe him and think being antisemtic is cool and nobody do care..
16. Ahmadinejad is begging for the coming war...
Daniel ,   Los Angeles, CA   (09.19.09)
He just wants to live in a free country like anyone else does and this is simply his unique way to become Westernized. Let's oblige Ahmadinejad. Let's roll....
17. Do we have proof that Ahmadnijad is not a hologram?
noah ,   israel   (09.19.09)
I think he is a myth and never existed.
18. I hereby condemn this abominable
Argus   (09.19.09)
criminal called Ahmadinejad and call upon the governments of the United States,Canada, Germany, U.K., France and other democratic countries to issue an arrest warrant and put an apb on this criminal at large. The reasons: 1. Crimes against his own people 2. Crimes against humanity 3. Denying the most horrific crime ever - the Holocaust 4. Denying basic human rights in Iran and keeping the younger generations as a hostage of his sick mind. 5. Causing deaths and murders by proxy in Lebanon (i.e. the American soldiers in 1985, the deaths in the 2nd Lebanon War both in Israel and Lebanon). 6. Being involved in the American Ambassy painful saga during US President Carter. 7. Bombing the Jewish Center in Buenos Aires and causing both destruction and massive deaths of Jews and Christians alike. I would add that the world is being faced with a modern-day Hitler and Hitlers should never be allowed to run freely in the halls and corridors of the United Nations which happens to be on the soil of the symbol of world democracy - the United States of America. Personally, I lost dear members of my family in Ausschwitz and the memory of my dear cousins who were butchered by Nazis is calling out of their massgraves to NOT allow any more modern-day Hitlers/Ahmadinejads make it happen again. And I took an oath to do whatever is in my human and humane power to make sure these crimes against humanity will never happen again. Amen to that !
19. #15, But by attacking his anti-Semitic
di   (09.19.09)
statements and countering as loud as possible, you have to agree that millions of other little and ugly anti-Semites will watch out and come to the best and only conclusion - anti-Semitism does not pay !
20. Germany, Stop Turks burning Alive!
Tayfun_Turkey ,   Istanbul   (09.19.09)
Do you think Germany is more humanist than Nazi era? How do you decide looking at such a few diplomatic disclosures regarding anti-semitism? German Nazis set fire to Turkish homes and in a few week's time many Turkish homes and Turkish people burnt alive in Germany, Germany covered the case as Accidents, it a source of wonder why in a few weeks so many Turkish houses catch fire in Germany, Read Accident as Nazi Actions as many witnesses saw registred Nazi criminals were around those houses Today they burnt Turks tomorrow again Jews Germany Stop Turks burning alive before replying to Ahmedinejat
21. But the Jew-hating UN will welcome him this week.
Cynic ,   USA   (09.19.09)
22. @20 This is nuts!
John ,   Amsterdam   (09.19.09)
I know this storys about supposed turkish burned homes.. the house was burning where many turks and other nationalities lived in and in between 1 hour after the fire has been extinguished the turkish government declared is must have been an antisemtic attack from neo-nazis. The truth was the german fire brigade rescued as many people as possible at the risk of their own lifes and in the end the investigation of the cause for the fire resulted there was no incendiary found! The investigator from turkey came to the same result!!
23. OPEN LETTER TO ARSEHOLEDINEJAD
LAWRENCE RAP ARTISTE ,   Safed Israel   (09.19.09)
Dear Monkey-boy,thank you for your shooting yourself in the foot yet again.You should know that you are a dead man walking ,do not bother purchasing any long playing records...
24. # 20: Lies
S ,   Germany   (09.19.09)
Why do you spread such awful lies? The fires you mention were accidents and caused by Turkish people. For example, last week in Duisburg 3 Turkish kids and their aunt died, because a 6year old turkish boy set the house on fire. The German fire brigade had arrived at the burning house within 6 minutes. Don't blame the Germans.
25. 11Take the beam out of thine own eye ..
(09.20.09)
“ thou hypocrite first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” ..before you worry about the speck in you neighbor's? Iran isn't raining down white phosphorus, dime missiles, cluster bombs on denseness citizens corralled in the Gaza ghetto or laying siege by air land or sea to their citizens nor shooting unarmed women and children at pointblank range waving the white flag of surrender.
26. 11“ hypocrite first cast out the beam out of thine own eye;
lydia ,   Brisbane   (09.20.09)
and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.” Iran isn't the one raining down white phosphorus, dime missile, cluster bombs on defenseless civilians in Lebanon nor in the Gaza nor is Iran the one that has laid siege by land, air and sea to the hapless people, nor is Iran guilty of shooting up unarmed women and children at point blank range as they waved the white flags in surrender.

having an engineering degree doesn't male you intelligent or well read and well aware. it basically gives you a job and a salary. this man, if i can call him a human, is an embarrasment to iran which is indeed comprised of 70% young below age 32. i am sure that most are extremely embarrassed by this outburst and continuous broken record re the holocaust. for the life of me i can't understand why this sub human insists that we all need to examine such a well doccumented piece of history when he has all the venues and all the books about the holocaust at his disposal to do a thorough research himself. the west has already researched the holocaust to exhaustion. the arab lands and regimes do not teach it so their people have no clue and in iran, the subject is never taught. how can the president of iran ever fault the west for not doing enough research into the holocaust of iran itself has never allowed its people to study it???? i suggest ahmi start his own research since millions of books are readily available on the internet and in libraries of new york city where he's heading. rather than make his inane embarrassing spoeeches he should google amazon.com and start ordering his research material asap. also, if he claims that this topic needs to be further researched, i would suggest he allow his educational systems and schools to have their students read everything that has been written so far about the holocaust...yes, even by former nazis who were witnesses to this travesty in humanity. what say you, lydia???? hameed aboughaze, iranian

Ahmadenajad's Doctorate in Engineering is much better than Lieberman's and Olmert's Doctorate in Embezzelment and money laundering.
30. #22 True...
Soeren ,   Cologne/Germany   (09.23.09)
... but Tayfun is known as a fanatic, staunch Islamist terror sympathizer and therefore closer to Nazi ideologies than the vast majority in Germany. But the Islamist "Volkssturm" won't come, Tayfun...
