Re: Ahmadinejad: 'American empire' nearing its end
Well if that is the only problem you have with Ahmadinejad you would also have to take it up with many other accredited scholars who also have questioned not the veracity of whether the holocaust happened, but the figures themselves or numbers of deaths reported. If you do a little more research you'll find the Ahmadinejad never disputed that these events occurred, but rather the extent to which they had occurred as a way of bringing attention to the fact that it has since been used as the premier excuse for apologists to succumb to allowing the invasions of occupied territories and other human rights atrocities. Until recently (although it still happens far more often that we'd like to imagine) blanket rejection of scrutiny brought to bear on Israel's questionable tactics and policies is often upheld by simply utilizing a broad and sweeping 'Anti-Semitic' label which naturally draws the outrage and ire of the general, misinformed, public. If this doesn't do the trick, one is naturally presumed (largely by Western media and it's constituents) to be in league with, or a supporter of, terrorists and/or terrorism.
