1. Most of Ahmadinejad's Columbia speech were criticized by the media, and rightfully so. However, I must take the media to task because there is one thing in his speech that has not been touched by his critics, something I consider very important. He stated that if the Holocaust did happen, the Palestinians and the Muslims had nothing do with it. That is incorrect. Many Arabic Palestinian Muslims played a great role in Hitler's Final Solution- for many of them (under the command of the grand mufti of Jerusalem Mohammad Amin al-Husayni) were in the Waffen SS that operated in the East.

I took a seminar a few years back (I'm a history graduate student at Syracuse University) about the Holocaust, and one of the things I learned was that the Arabic and Muslim SS soldiers (who mainly operated in the Balkans) were the worst of the worst. They were more destructive and cruel than almost any of their Aryan comrades. (View this for further information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amin_al-Husayni . Also, this documentary touches a lot of base on the subject: http://store.aetv.com/html/search/cb_search.jhtml?search=Saddam+and+the+Third+Reich&itemType=All&x=14&y=16&key=||Saddam%20and%20the%20Third%20Reich||&_requestid=859119

2. Are you suggesting to find an excuse for having invaded Iraq and having killed more than 1 Million innocent civilians?
The zionist have really brainwashed most Americans.
You are probably also suggesting to attack Iran.
The way Ahmadinejad was interviewed at Columbia university is a shame on journalism. Why did they invite him in the first place? Probably the dean of the university had to justify himself against all the neocon administration criticism.

America really sucks at the moment and if you really attack IRAN the whole world should boycott US and Israeli products forever.
