He is very gutsy person. Fox news conservatives who were booed and were hit with pie were complaining that students applauded him.

I am watching his interview on c-span2. The reporter is asking Ahmedinejad very bold questions, he is pretty much being nice and dancing around. Nothing interesting so far. President of Iran keeps talking about importance of friendship between the two nations. let's keep watching.

Of all the interviewed people, the only reasonable was dean of International Affairs of Columbia University.He acknowledged the fact that Iranian president is a powerful man.Unlike president of Columbia who was throwing his childish insults such as "you are not educated enough to answer my questions".He undermined the reputation of educational institute.
On the other hand,it was very funny to watch all the jews fussing about holocaust and accusing Ahmedinejad.

I cant believe the media reporting it as if Ahmedinejad was "hummiliated". Seriously, are they THAT ignorant? All of the questions were dumb and now they are saying "oh ahmedinejad didnt answer any questions and dogged them blah blah blah", idiotism.

It is discrediting-most powerful tool of western media and government.How could he have been humiliated?They know that the audience of Ahmedinejad is way out of US population and by telling everybody that he failed to answer any of the answers, media is creating an illusion that he did a lousy job and humiliated himself.Seriously,I haven't heard a single positive feedback from any politician,analyst or scholar in reference of Iranian president speech.They were even ready to invite Hitler to Columbia University just to prove that holocaust existed,how crazy is that?:)

Ахмадинежада шокировал прием в университете
Время публикации: Сегодня в 09:17 по Джохару

Президент Ирана Махмуд Ахмадинежад выступил перед аудиторией в Колумбийском университете в США. Он опять затронув тему мифа о холокосте, сказав —
«Почему палестинским людям приходится платить за то, к чему они никакого отношения не имели?».
«Вы либо нахально дерзки, либо удивительно необразованны», — наголо заявил в ответ иранскому президенту ректор университета Ли Болинджер.
И беспардонно потребовал от президента Ирана «прекратить это безобразие».
В ответ на вопрос, «хочет ли Иран уничтожить Израиль», Ахмадинежад заявил — «Мы любим все нации. Мы — друзья евреям, в Иране живет много евреев, они живут в мире и безопасности».
Между тем ректор университета вел себя непристойно и откровенно безобразно, постоянно грубил и оскорблял Ахамнежеда. Представляя президента Ирана аудитории, ректор заявил:
«Мистер президент, вы обнаруживаете все признаки мелкого беспощадного диктатора. Когда вы приходите в такие места, вы выгладите нелепым. Правда в том, что холокост — самое задокументированное событие в истории».
Такое представление Ахмадинежад назвал оскорблением, затуманившим непредубежденность аудитории, добавив, что такого не могло бы произойти в Иране.
Укажем в этой связи, что несмотря на то, что миф о холокосте является якобы «самым задокументированным событием в истории», любого человека на западе, пытающегося это событие изучить сажают в тюрьму по обвинению в «неверие в холокост», что выглядит более нелепо, чем появление Ахмадинежада в Колумбийском университете.

Бога отрицать можно — «холокост» нельзя.

Напомним, что в столице Ирана Тегеране 11–12 декабря 2006 года прошла международная конференция по «холокосту». Конференция «Исследование холокоста, международный взгляд», была организована МИД Ирана и проводилась в Институте международных и политических исследований (ИМПИ) иранского внешнеполитического ведомства.
Решение о проведении мероприятия было принято после того, как президент Исламской Республики Махмуд Ахмадинежад поставил под сомнение утверждение сионистской пропаганды о массовом истреблении евреев в годы Второй мировой войны.
Иранский президент в публичных выступлениях, называя холокост «мифом», предлагал странам, ощущающим вину за гибель евреев, предоставить часть своей территории для еврейского государства и прекратить таким образом оккупацию Палестины и убийством палестинского народа.
На форум поступило около ста статей на тему «холокоста» из 30 стран, в том числе из Великобритании, США, Канады, Австрии, Франции, Дании, Италии, Австралии, Германии, Швеции, Венгрии, России, Украины, Японии, Хорватии, Индии, Алжира, Бахрейна, Иордании, Туниса, Египта, Палестины, Бельгии, Таджикистана, Кении, Сирии и Ирана.

В конференции приняли участие несколько сот делегатов и около 70 иностранных экспертов, но присутствие некоторых зарубежных представителей, пожелавших принять участие в мероприятии, по сообщению пресс-службы ИМПИ, «к сожалению, стало невозможным», так как они «по причине своих взглядов на холокост находятся в тюрьме».
Одним из участников конференции стал Дэвид Дьюк, американский ученый, который заявил, что «тот факт, что нельзя свободно обсуждать холокост, позволяет израильтянам скрывать преступления против палестинского народа».
В конференции принял участие писатель Жорж Тиль, осужденный на родине за то, что поставил под сомнение миф о «холокосте», который он назвал огромной ложью.
«Евреев преследовали, но никакой машины для убийства нацисты не создавали, в газовых камерах никого не убивали», - утверждает Тиль.
В Тегеран приехали также представители британской еврейской общины. Раввин Ааарон Коэн заявил, что факт «холокоста» не подлежит сомнению, но и не может служить оправданием для «израильских преступлений против палестинцев».
В конференции приняла участие делегация раввинов из движения «Нетурей Карта» (США), считающих, что «холокост» является результатом деятельности сионистов, которые и сейчас продолжают использовать его для мотивации преступлений против палестинского народа.
Сионисты публично угрожали участникам международной научной конференции расправой. Эти угрозы были исполнены. Многие участники конференции из числа евреев и раввинов были избиты, на некоторых покушались.
Сионистское руководство было крайне встревожено проведением научной конференции в Тегеране, так как на этот раз мифу о «холокосте» угрожало не просто очередное разоблачение ученных одиночек, которые подвергаются смертельной опасности за неверие в «холокост». На этот раз разоблачение было осуществлено авторитетом государства и внушительного международного научного исследования.

I just finished watching the visit of Mahmud Ahmedinejad at Columbia University. The President of the University, Mr. Bollinger started up the event with quite an insulting, and cold welcome. Ahmedinejad appeared to be wearing a poorly tailored suit and was answering to some very straight and bold questions by dancing around, which I somehow understand. He had to give wide answers instead of short ones, to explain himself, and why he is standing at that point of view. Mr.Bollinger even demanded once that the better answer to the question would be yes or no, and Ahmedinejad told him that if it is an open discussion, he should be given a chance to answer the question the way he thinks is right, instead of telling him to answer by giving out answers they expect him to give.
His answer regarding the excecution of homosexuals in Iran was very bizarre. This guy is in denial period. He made a good point when he was asked why Iran won't stop Iran's nuclear program. He said, US has the 5th generation of bombs already made and had it tested. So in what position are they to tell us to stop our nuclear program for peaceful needs?
And student burst with laughter when he said, thanks for inviting me to Columbia, I heard a lot of US politicians are trained here. LOL.:lol:
Anyways, he did not make any new, shocking comments or statements as some might've been expecting. He should check his gay data next time though.

It is amazing how strong the notion of Holocaust is. In the West you can deny anything, be it God, faith, or any historical event other than Holocaust. Anti-semite and Holocaust-denier are probably the worst things one can be called, and it is usually used against those who express the slightest doubt about the Holocaust, or do not show enough support to Israel.

You can doubt anything you want. But there are some established facts. The fact that earth rotates around the sun, for example. Or the fact that millions of people have died in concentration camps of Germany during WWII.

Also, for jewish, Holocaust is personal. Imagine your mother and father were murdered by someone, but some people question that fact and say that maybe it did not happen. For many jewish, their parents, sisters and brothers have died in those conc. camps. They were specifically targeted because they happen to be born jewish.

On the other hand, estabslishment of a states for jewish (judaic) in the middle of arab (muslim) world was a BIG mistake. Israel could've been established elsewhere, better where it would not have territorial problems with neighbours. But it was established and has 10 million people living in it. You cannot deport or kill them. You have to face the fact that they are there to stay.

But anyways, today the problem is racial segregation of arabs (muslims) in Israel as well as military occupation (bundled with colonization) of Palestine. But since both sides are arguing from religious absolutism positions and are unable to rationally devise a strategy to peacefully resolve the conflict (ex. Ghandi, MLK, Mandela), the turmoil will continue indefinitely.

Unfortunately, there will not be a Mandela or Ghandi for Palestine any time soon. There will be plenty of clerics and young jihadists, but that will only worsen the problem. Last 50 years of conflict is an illustrative proof of that.

Columbia U. missed a unique chance to grill President of Iran about problems Iran is experiencing. No local media of Iran is able to ask candid questions about problems of the country, be that economy, azeri separatists, freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, banning of certain political blogs etc. I would personally pepper him with those questions :).

On the other hand, internationally, Iran is in a good position, except for aiding Hezbollah which is in war with Israel.

Holocaust is not about the West or the East, it's not even about Israel, it's not about what you think about it, it's about human tragedy and may it have happened to any other nation than Jews, we probably wouldn't even be having this discussion as no one would doubt the fact of massacre and humiliation of huge mass of people merely because of their ethnical identity.

Yes, noone is denying the tragedy. But who can deny that holocoust is used today to justify even worse tragedy of palestinian-israeli conflict? And why, because of the past genoside jewish nationals should be untouchable? I mean you can critisize anyone and anything these days BUT any of the jews, even if your critique is limited to the ACTION OF THE PERSON, you are bound to be announced as antisemitist

Delf, when was this fact established? I am sure before that for thousands of years people thought differently. Before the existence of God was a fact, but somehow people can deny that, but not the Holocaust. Columbia U.' president sucked. He started well, but then began selling USG information for fact. Iraq was believed to have had WMD at one time, if you remember. The university president talked about imprisoned American-Iranian scholars but said nothing about imprisoned historians in Europe who questioned the Holocaust. How come you don't demand their release, but advocate gays' in Iran?

I agree with PainKiller, Ahmadinejad's answer regarding gays was lame. He should have said that Iran is an Islamic state operating based on sharia and according to sharia, homosexuality is a sin and if you try to question the Quran, you are insulting far more people than those who believe in the Holocaust. He should also said that there are certain values and culture in Iran, laws and homosexuality is a crime. Just like there are all kinds of laws in US and Europe. "Does that mean the world should adopt American law and values as universal and who said they are the best ones?" Ahmadinejad should have said.

Well, apparently, there are those who deny/cast doubt about the Holocaust. However, I see your point -- when ex-president Jimmy Carter presented his book calling for withdrawal of Israel's military forces from occupied Palestinian territory (occupied after the 6-day war) and demolition of Jewish settlements, he was called anti-Semite -- though, I personally believe that it is indeed the only way to resolve this conflict. The problem is that after the Holocaust, as a result of a collective guilt the West felt for the Holocaust, Jews have been, to put it mildly, positively discriminated and as you put it, there has been no way to critisize the Jews.

However, I think you are wrong saying that today the situation is unchanged -- I think the world is realizing that the Holocaust was a tragedy, but that it should not be a source of another human tragedy, namely for Palestinians. Bush administration has called for a second time in the US history for establishment of independent Palestinian state, the public perception in the US is also changing. I think the recent publication of Israel Lobby in the US where the authors condemn the huge influence of the Israeli lobbyists is quite a step forward to regarding Israelis as equal counterparts who are equally responsible for preserving peace in the Middle East.

The problem is that the Arab world or propalestinian forces are employing bad PR techniques. They are not being able to use the raising sympathy to Arabs to their benifits and I think this is something Arabs should reconsider in their efforts to get back their lands. Anyway, I am not a huge Middle East expert, but I think it is time for Arabs to use the momentum. Arabs should be more pragmatic and less inclined on ideological aspects of the war. At the end of the day, it's not a war of cultures or identities -- it's about the land, so pragmatism is something Palestinians and their supporters should add to their arsenal.

Wow, are you Bush's personal shrink? Just checking if you are a reliable source to make statements about Lil Bush's mental health.

Ahmadinejad is a "brave" and "smart" man who somewhy (probably due to mental eclipse) fails to use all his brains and smartness to provide his country -- which happens to be a big producer of crude oil --with gas and therefore, had to introduce gas rationing. Right, that takes brains...

I dont think he is all good as well, I admire him as I admire some of Hitler's actions, but it doesnt mean I love the person. He did excellent job by coming and confronting his opponents/counter idealists. I admire some of his actions in middle east. I dont want to go specific in everything, i simply dont have time :)

p.s. I wish i had time to post more :) i am sitting in my cost accounting class right now, sorry :)

p.p.s It is not in his only power to change his country's economical status, there is too much pressure from outside, he rules the area where more than 20 % of world's oil passes through, to take full control of the region and redistribute the wealth properly is a death sentence to him and his people. He could have done more, it is true but still he is already doing things i.e. trying to get his "nuclear power plants" to balance the powers somehow.

I agree with you on this one. Jewish holocust is undeniable of course, but since when palestinian holocust (even if it is labeled under "fight against terrorism ") is justified and well tolerated?

Columbia's president acted like a moron. All that booing from students showed not how democratic the scene was but how disrespectful americans can get. I think given the circumstances Iranian president did quite well. Even if many of us think that he is not smart enough, brainless or whatever, admit it, not all of us can sit there and present our ideology, which most likely both religiously and strategicly different from the audience's.

I had no idea the reception would be that bad. :shock: They basically set up a scene to try to make him look like an idiot. :? The only thing Americans even know about him are comments about Israel, the Holocaust, nuclear weapon development, and that he is leading Iran to cause problems in Iraq. I agree with Delf it would have been a very interesting forum to grill him on Iran's situation outside of his nation's total lack of free media and speech. Wouldn't you like the same opportunity with Karimov? Overall I think the whole thing was stupid and comical. And I was listening to Rush Limbaugh just now talk about how soft they were on Ahmadinejad. :lol: Conservative radio shows are the best.

When you are a president of such a powerful university you should at least be more diplomatic.

To be frank, I thought the Iranian president's reply to the subject of homosexuals was retarded. He should have just said that homosexuality is taboo in Islam and etc. But saying something like "We do not have such a phenomena." I mean did you see his face, he wanted to laugh at his own statement.

In general, he seemed more respectful and diplomatic than the CU's president.

Well, apparently, there are those who deny/cast doubt about the Holocaust.
there are many missconseptions about what "holocaust deniers" are all about. Nobody from even the most hardcore deniers actually deny holocaust. They all aknowledge that many jews, hundreds of thousands of them were killed. But what they dispute though is the number of those who were killed, the authenticity of the reports by large provided by soviet union and the contradicting eye witness reports. And i have to admitt, they do have some point in what they say. Judge for yourself, this is an amature "denier" who is Jew himself.

The reason why it is being such a contraversial subject is because of the ban on doing any academical research about it. The even worse outcome is that it is being used as a prefix for everything thet israel desides to do.

Besides, you of anyone should know that on international arena there are specific rules and consequences of accepting something as geneside. This is the reason why armenians try to exaggerrate the geneside by turks while turks are trying to downplay it. This is the reason why UN failed to announce Darfur as geneside.

Holocaust deniers are disputing the fact that, although it was a huge tragedy and huge crime, it should not be considered as geneside.


However, I think you are wrong saying that today the situation is unchanged -- I think the world is realizing that the Holocaust was a tragedy, but that it should not be a source of another human tragedy, namely for Palestinians. Bush administration has called for a second time in the US history for establishment of independent Palestinian state, the public perception in the US is also changing. I think the recent publication of Israel Lobby in the US where the authors condemn the huge influence of the Israeli lobbyists is quite a step forward to regarding Israelis as equal counterparts who are equally responsible for preserving peace in the Middle East.

I dont htink anyone will buy what bush says. This is just another tactics in his so called war against terror. He needs to sound like caring president whos heart goes out for palestinians, but why did he fail to recognise democratically elected hamas party and where was US when Israel waged its aggression against palestine under the prefix of "freeing its soldier"? Where is bush when Israel is still building its illegal wall?At the moment, the timing of his "call for palestinian state" is in the strange timing and by large, just words but no action.

The problem is that the Arab world or propalestinian forces are employing bad PR techniques. They are not being able to use the raising sympathy to Arabs to their benifits and I think this is something Arabs should reconsider in their efforts to get back their lands. Anyway, I am not a huge Middle East expert, but I think it is time for Arabs to use the momentum. Arabs should be more pragmatic and less inclined on ideological aspects of the war. At the end of the day, it's not a war of cultures or identities -- it's about the land, so pragmatism is something Palestinians and their supporters should add to their arsenal.


And what do you expect? Arabs are labelled as terrorists, who cares about terrorists?

On the subject, the only blunder ahmedinejad did was about homosexualism but in general he did not loose it in face of all the insults. He was polite, unlike his opponent. Compare his attitude to the one of Bush in his interview with Irish reporter:

YouTube - BANNED Pres. Bush Interview

Besides, at the moment we are accusin ahmedinejad of being a "dictator" and stuff without any evidence. He was actually democratically elected. Apart from some of his remarks, nobody can actually show his "terrible record".

I hate this framing by some people. "Holocaust-deniers" - what a phrase. How about "Bush-deniers"? Half of the US is such. They deny that Bush was elected in a fair election. But since he was elected and it is a fact proven by the Supreme Court decision, how about jailing and persecuting "Bush-deniers"?

We should adopt some laws in Uzbekistan, for exampling, punishing those who deny that Amir Temur was Uzbek. Why do more research on that? It has already been proven by our scholars.

In general, he seemed more respectful and diplomatic than the CU's president.

i hated his tone. it was full of self-righteousness. it was like -- oh, dude we invited you here cause we do this with everyone. we pretend as if we are listening, but in reality we just want to show how wrong you are in every single thing you say.

i wonder how much stuff was lost in tranlation.

btw, i heard this specifically from someone who does political discourse analysis in modern Iran (who also happens to be an Iranian speacialist of Persian Lit. and language)-- Ahmadinejad is not very much respected by majority of the population in Iran. Especially, by the liberal and educated ones. Those who respect him are simple, lay people, as Ahmad-d is a very good public speaker and his Persian is like a music to ears, he sure knows how to attract these people. So above note by Melo -- that he is sorta-kinda like Bush can be correct (not about the language :lol: we know which one is more articulate, but about who is attracted to them -- here it is simple, midwestern farmers and there almost the same type).

The reason why it is being such a contraversial subject is because of the ban on doing any academical research about it. The even worse outcome is that it is being used as a prefix for everything thet israel desides to do.



Ban on doing any academic research on Holocaust? We probably exist in parallel universes, as in the universe that I live in there was a famous, actually, super famous case of David Irving, a historian who questioned Holocaust, he was actually an academician who did research on Holocaust and came to conclusion that Holocaust, at least the way the global community understands it, did not take place. You also probably never heard of such name as Arthur Butz (not sure about spelling of his last name) -- who was actually an American researcher who did research the issue and as a result totally denied Holocaust. If you actually research it, you'll find that there were hundred of people who researched Holocaust, so there is no ban on researching it. Seriously, where did you get that idea?

Nevertheless, no matter what you call it, any person in his right mind, can not question the fact that millions of Jews were systematically murdered by Nazi Germany -- a fact confirmed during Nurenberg trials, also confirmed by examination of concentration camps, namely Auschwitz, where they had gas chambers to mass murder Jews -- killing for the mere sake of killing. According to the international law, genocide is an act to destroy in part or whole a national, ethnical or religious group. Didn't Nazis try to do it? They did. There was an act to destroy in part or whole an ethnical group -- and that group happened to be Jews. Holocaust is a mere substitute for the word "genocide", so as long as you can't deny genocide of Jews, you can not deny or question Holocaust. So, if you have problems with word "Holocaust", let's use "genocide", but it doesn't change the matter of facts -- Nazi germany mass slaughtered Jews for their being Jews.

also there were gypsy/roma people and homsexuals. but i doubt that these even put together outnumbered Jews. i mean to tell Jews apart was (I assume) easier than saying someone was gay in 40s. I am sure some neighbors helped to identify who was Jew in the neigborhood. Whereas when it comes to gay people it probably was difficult. same goes to Gypsies, they are already such a tiny minority, so saying that they outnumbered Jews who were sent to concentration camps from all over Europe is just a nonsence.

abcd, if you carefully read the case and the book that was published after it, which was written, if I am not mistaken, by the attorney of David Irving, you will realize that the case is not as simple as it looks at first sight. David Irving was the one who initiated the case and it was actually him who tried to sue American historian Deborah Lipstadt on libel charges. The case did get politicized, but might Irving not bring attention to the book, he wouldn't have gotten charged with anything. Mind that he was not convicted as "Holocaust-denier", but was found guilty of "manipulating documentary record" which are totally two different things. There is no law (at least in the US and in most of the countries) that would make denying Holocaust a crime and therefore, no one can be charged with denying Holocaust.

Ok, there are some who point out that Holocaust is a fact. I don`t see anyone arguing it. However, what majority says here is that support of Palestinians, condemnation of Israel has no relevance to the Holocaust. One can love Jews as an ethnic group, yet can hate their government. Somehow, Jews are directly associated with the state of Israel and its actions.

And, what is more important, an historical event, a doubtless tragedy, or a tragedy that is going on right now? We watch movies about concentration camps in the past, but do we get to know much about Palestinian refugee camps today?

Well firstly even people like me with limited historical knoweldge but with excellent googling skills and little bit of logic can defy to your post.

Number one: Libel suit took place in 1996.

Number two:
After Irving denied the Holocaust in two 1989 speeches given in Austria, the Austrian government issued an arrest warrant against him and barred him from entering the country. This case would come up again in 2005 when Irving was arrested and brought to trial (see next section).[41] In early 1992 a German court found him guilty of Holocaust denial under the Auschwitzlüge section of the law against Volksverhetzung (a failed appeal by Irving would see the fine rise from 10000 DM to 30000 DM), and he was subsequently barred from entering Germany.[42] Other governments followed suit, including Austria, Italy and Canada,[43] where he was arrested in November 1992 and deported back to the United Kingdom.[42] In an administrative hearing surrounding those events, he was found by the hearing office to have engaged in a "total fabrication" in telling a story of an exit from and return to Canada which would have, for technical reasons, made the original deportation order invalid. He was also barred from entering Australia in 1992, a ban he made four unsuccessful legal attempts to overturn. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Irving

People -- this world is not about Bush, Ahmadinejad or Putin. If you hate one of these, it doesn't mean that you automatically must like the second one. It's a multiple choice test, with one of options being I Like None. Enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my best friend.

Probably, offtop, but it seems like, Ahmadinejad is so popular because everyone dislikes Bush and Ahmadinejad does seem to be a voice to speak against Bush administration. Anyway, the point is there is no need to go to extremes.

If a president of Columbia university was such an asshole (and he was), it doesn't mean that Ahmadinejad was brilliant -- some statements are simple lies, e.g. "The freest women in the world live in Iran" (alright, this may be questionanble) or "On a daily basis, we have tens — many, many newspapers or dozens of newspapers in our country, and the number of those newspapers that are against the government in place right now are perhaps 10 times larger than the newspapers that are pro-government."

But I said that if you want to go ahead and make a research, do it and trust me, you are not going to go to prison for that in most countries. I agree -- Irving did a stupid thing delivering lecture in Austria -- an ally of the Nazi German, equally responsible for Holocaust. Germans and Austrians are still very nervous about anything relating to Holocaust as they did commit it and that was the reason Irving was arrested in Austria. So, as long as you are in a country that does not have Holocaust-denial laws (e.g., France recently adopted laws making denial of Armenian Holocaust a crime) there is no way you can claim you are being barred from researching Holocaust.

What is the point of saying "research of holocaust is allowed, but you will be jailed once you come up with results"? is that the freedom of research?

How about the LAWS prohibiting any negative critisism of jewish nationals, espessially holocaust?

Nouremberg trial is questionable, you need to look into the other side of the story as well. With regards to auswitz, did you even skip through the video links I have provided? That was exactly about that.

Besides, how much do you know about Iran? Yes, I admit, it is not the perfect state on the face of the earth but nobody actually brought any plausable critisism of ahmedinejad's record while he was in office.

Did you know that the whole of the welth of Ahmedinejad is one apartment in Tehran and a car? In difference from Rafsanjani or Muhammad Khatami who posess enormous wealth.

Besides, do not forget that Iran is the ocuntry under economical sanctions and is currently surrounded by hostile US all around, apart from on the tiny north, Azerbayjan.

Now as I said, I am not advocating ahmedinejad, but please be kind enough and bring evidence when you critisize someone's personality and record.

Your Wikipedia skills are impressive, but again, they do prove my point that doing research on Holocaust is not barred.

I didn't say that there will be no aftermath, did I? But I said that if you want to go ahead and make a research, do it and trust me, you are not going to go to prison for that in most countries.
In countries such as Iran, Syria, although many countries who consider themselves as a flagships of free speech and democracy will either put you jail or consider mentally ill.

I agree -- Irving did a stupid thing delivering lecture in Austria -- an ally of the Nazi German, equally responsible for Holocaust. Germans and Austrians are still very nervous about anything relating to Holocaust as they did commit it and that was the reason Irving was arrested in Austria. So, as long as you are in a country that does not have Holocaust-denial laws (e.g., France recently adopted laws making denial of Armenian Holocaust a crime) there is no way you can claim you are being barred from researching Holocaust.
Again, the same goes here, you certainly can do research in Iran, or Syria, however, you can not predict consequences of that bravery (or insanity, depending on from which angle to approach).

Secondly once you are committed to the research what would be your first logical country to start with?

Nazi's did not kill any nations. They targeted people of certain ethnicities, people with disabilities, people with certain sexual preferences and people with different political views. They mainly targeted Jewish community and even had a policy titled "The Final Solution of the Jewish Question." Also Holocaust refers to a genocide of not only Jews but also the other groups prosecuted by the Nazi regime with a death toll of 9-11 million people with 6 million of them being Jews. I think this is a tragedy and calling it a lie is an insult to all the people who were killed - Jews or others.

Well lady, first of all there were not 6 million people in prisons and those jails were not exclusively built to torture jews. There were much more people who shared the same fate of being tortured and used as rats in their horrendous experiments. Hitler might have been after jews but somebody also mentioned in this discussion that he was after gipsies too.

On the other hand you might have watched movie Pianist, where a pianist jew hides from nazis in ruins of houses. When I watched this film, I could not understand why he was hiding and not joining militia who was at that time fighting against nazis. I guess that film in general portrayed the jews during the WWII. Had they shown more resistance, who knows maybe the Holocaust scales would not be that large.

U r right, from one side it is true, since he is being watched by western "dogs" from all sides, he must be careful in his speeches and actions, but on the other hand he has his own audience besides western countries, i.e. Middle East is his main audience. He needs support from Arabs, from people within Iran using his dissatisfaction with Israel’s actions, since Israeli issue is hot topic there, you can get good support by backing Palestinian plea there. To be able to get even stronger support, which is very important given the western propaganda roaming around in the region, he must make bold statements, thats what people respect, even though it "may" not be true, it has strong argument behind it regarding the overall holocaust issue.

I mean, he is just doing fine.

p.s. just think, his statements about the holocaust sparked so much discussion around the world about what and how Israel is "doing".

Wow, is that the outcome of your Holocaust research?:)

It is good you didn't say that Hitler went to war against all those nations only to get the Jews living in those states since they didn't have their own country back then. And Slavs (around 40-45 million) were probably a collateral damage, right? Of course, he didn't mean to kill them, it was their fault that they had allowed Jews to live in their countries...

Also Holocaust refers to a genocide of not only Jews but also the other groups prosecuted by the Nazi regime with a death toll of 9-11 million people with 6 million of them being Jews. I think this is a tragedy and calling it a lie is an insult to all the people who were killed - Jews or others.

Can you eloborate? I will have to ask AGAIN to show the evidence (and please do not go down the usual boring line of no women rights blah blah blah, show solid evidence. )

Besides, I dont understand you people. The biggest fault of Iran is that it took anti-american stance in its politics and everything that comes out of media about Iran is either distorted or fabricated or at least negative.

Like one example, Ahmedinejad's alledged saying "Israel must be wiped out of the map" is miss translation of his words. What he actually said was "Israel will fade away from the pages of history (or something like that).

Now, when people talk about Iran, they somehow forget that it was America who installed shah of Iran during who's time Iran was much worse then what it is now. Then anti-american "mollas" overthrew Shah, who was America's good buddy and immediately US started to support Saddam in his war against newly formed Iran.

Now, Iran was fed up with Shah and his western friends and overthrew him. Then immediately they faced war against well-armed, west supported Saddam, the war that technically Saddam lost. Then it had to face economical sanctions and complete isolation from the world. And all of it just because they chose to have their own leaders in Iran. And in the moment it is surrounded by hostile forces, especially US. But even under this situation, Iran managed to emerge as the power to be reconed with, I think it is impressive. They have democratically elected leadership, something that America doesnt want to admit for some reason. They have growing economy, huge heavy industry and manufacture in place. People in Iran are educated.

Anyways, please back your claims up with evidence.

I agree with Abu-Hafiza on Iran`s achievements. Besides their natural resources, they have developed very strong industry. And this happened regardless of sanctions, one of the most expensive wars(Iran-Iraq war) and years of hostility with the greatest economy in the world.

Also, one point is being missed here. The political system of Iran. President, although elected by the population, is not the top leader of the state. The spiritual leader and clerics are the ones who make final decisions. And, there are strong moderate politicians(the former presidents Hatami and Rafshandjani) vs. hardcore conservative ones(Ahmadinejad and clerics).

Палата представителей США одобрила во вторник законопроект, ужесточающий санкции против Ирана и запрещающий Белому дому любое сотрудничество со странами, которые оказывают Ирану содействие в ядерной сфере.

Как сообщает АР, законопроект, предложенный конгрессменом-демократом от штата Калифорния Томом Лантосом, был одобрен подавляющим большинством голосов - 397 "за" и 16 "против". [

and his response

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, in a United Nations address Tuesday, said the issue of Iran's nuclear program is closed because of Tehran's cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, the IAEA. He said Iran would consider further U.N. Security Council sanctions against his country completely illegal. VOA's David Gollust reports from our U.N. bureau.

dear friends,
lets not deviate from the topic and lets stop talking about holocaust etc.
My comments about the speech by Ahmadinejad at Columbia are as follows.
First of all, punk prof behaved as an old prick who tried to get an erection. I would judge his introduction, questions and comments to be unacceptable and inapropriate for a professor and it makes me wonder how many dick headed profs there are in the states.
Secondly, to all questions posed to Ahmedinejad, the audience received appropriate answers. There is no doubt about the charisma in Ahmadinejad\'s speech so that the audience (imagine all brainwashed by FOX and CNN, prowestern and prepared-to-battle) could not stop themselves from apploding to the answers by Ahmadinejad.
Thirdly, Ahmadinejad has denied the existance, as a consequence the execution of homos. He had no other choice because it is not true. the reason, as an Islamic state maybe this is the right punishment for such type of crimes but he didnt go into details. Which shows he is a good diplomat.
Fourthly, it shows the dick headed americans how morally low they are, you can\'t just invite a guest speaker especially a legitimate president a nation with the population of 50.000.000 and throw mud at him. It is first of all disrespect for yourself unless you are one of dick headed pricks.
Fifthly, Ahmadinejad won the battle and the prick prof lost it.
Sixly, hate will provoke only hate.

of course!

One, especially man should stay for his words and ideas and not change them, of course if he is not slut. I presume that Ahmadinejad is not slut then he realized his previous stupid words and decision against whole nation (Jews).Again, you didnt bring any proof as such.
As far as I can see, he is standing for his words.

All he does is critisize state of Israel. If you are talking about "israel should be wiped out of the map" fiasco, then he actually did not say that. He was saying that Israeli state is so unpopular and fragile that it will fade away on the pages of history just like other states did.

As Ahmedinejad said, and I agree, there are between 30 to 40 thousand jews living in Iran where they live in peace. I have not read in anywhere anything saying that jews are being persecuted in Iran just because they are jews.
And believe me, there are hundreds of millions of people who dont mind jews but hate israeli zionist government.

No Zionist Jews are associated with Israel, not all Jews. I know a lot of Jewish people who do not support the Zionist ideology but actively support Palestinian plea. So there is a distinction. Just like Muslims there are different kind of Jews.

Every nation and state has a right to exist. same is for State of Israel. The strongest will survive. this is the law of nature. jews are smart it means they earn a lot of money. A lot of money means the power. power means strength. that simple. moreover jews are the most educated people and they are committed to their religion and history.
If you want to survive be strong and pray.

Look to modern world history...countries opposing to US aggression and policy..

Dr.Ahmadinejad is the only one stands firmly against American destruction machine...is the first among moslem presidents who initiated the eligibility of Holocaust theory...who openly supports and politically acknowledge Palestinian Territories and has not ties with Israel.

Islam is the university and politics/economics/media/law/management and ect., are faculties of that university....so if you read all verses of chapter 2 in Koran, which aware and teach us how to deal with the world affairs, you will understand the background of Ahmadinejad's remarks and statements.

Did not quite understand your statement. So, every nation has a right to exist (agreed), the strongest will survive, implying that the weakest (i.e. Palestine) will perish, but then again, hey, every nation has a right to exist. But they are not strong, so they will perish, while they have rights to exist................


A bit confused.

Besides, you do not exersice your right to exist by occupying illegally the lands that dont belong to you, you dont exersice your right to exist by balantly ignore some 429 resolutions passed against you and carry on your illegal activities and you dont exersize your right to exist by assassinating the political figures, accusing them of being terrorists. Everyone knows that Israel is the biggest terrorist state in the face of the world.

i wonder how much stuff was lost in tranlation.

btw, i heard this specifically from someone who does political discourse analysis in modern Iran (who also happens to be an Iranian speacialist of Persian Lit. and language)-- Ahmadinejad is not very much respected by majority of the population in Iran. Especially, by the liberal and educated ones. Those who respect him are simple, lay people, as Ahmad-d is a very good public speaker and his Persian is like a music to ears, he sure knows how to attract these people. So above note by Melo -- that he is sorta-kinda like Bush can be correct (not about the language :lol: we know which one is more articulate, but about who is attracted to them -- here it is simple, midwestern farmers and there almost the same type).

You may find some Iranians in Samarkand as a businesspeople or doctors. And having good chat with them over the politics and country affairs...they all agree that he could do his best...but they fully realize the ongoing situation and current proxy war and spinning against Iran.

He's alike a father in the family. Eventhough we love him..but he's a obstacle for getting up late time, laying comfortably on the sofa on his presence, watching TV all day long, his cloth screening procedure before leaving our homes, chatting hours over the phone and etc...an we're just waiting when he will leave the home for us to embrace freedom and do whatever we want.

Conclusion: There are some bustards who hates his/her father just relying on his/her desires...and some loving him and just learning and imitating him with patience.

Thank you mate for your comments on my nick.

Regarding 6 day war, it was actually Israel who made a "preemtive strike" against egypt.

So let me get it right again. Just because Palestine is "strategically important to Israel for acting like a buffer against (well, well, well) Egyptians and Jordanians, who happen to be friends of Israel at present, Israel has rights to carry out atrosities against people who live there and lived there for centuries?

Besides, if every nation has rights to exist, then why was israel built on the lands of palestinians in the first place?Or palestinians are not people, they are merely "strategic buffers" is it?

Besides, you stated that "giving sovereignity to Palestine wont end the conflict", counter question to you, does carrying on the illegal occupation, blackmailing the whole nation, building illegal walls, proceding with illegal settlements, sending tanks against stone throwing children solve the conflict? As long as America supports the terrorist regime of Israel, sheilding it from any punishment and giving them go ahead to do whatever they like, there will be groups like Hezbollah and Hamas and people and/or governments supporting them.

Holocaust - yahudiylarning Nemis fashistlari tomonidan qirilishi bo'lgan narsa. Ammo, 2-Jahon urushida yahidiylardan boshqa xalqlar ham qirilgan. Holocaust mavzusining kuchliligi - dunyodagi (cionist) Yahudiylar Lobbysining kuchliligidadir.

Nemis konclagerlarida yahidiylarning o'ziga yahudiylarni o'ldirishga, gazxonalarda o'ldirilganlarni pechkalarda yoqishga majbur etishgan (http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/zoyljlxi/dokudiesklavendergaskammerdasj.jpg)...
Ammo, bu narsa yahudiylarning necha yildirki Falastinda qilib kelayotgan jinoyatlarini aslo oqlamaydi...
Hitler hokimiyat tepasiga kelgan vaqtdan (hatto undan oldin) boshlab 2-Jahon Urushi bopshlangunicha (asosan 1939 yilgacha va qisman 1941 yilgacha), cionist yahidiylar Fashistlar bilan juda faol ishlashgan - yahudiylarni mol-mulki bilan Falastinga chiqarib ketish borasida Fashistlar bilan Ha'avara shartnomasi bo'lgan ularning. Maqsad - Falastinda Yahudiylar davlatini barpo etish bo'lgan.
Cionistlar Hitler siyosatidan juda yaxshi foydalanishgan...

qopol misol keltiraman, agar yahudiy bolganizda, ularning kelib chiqishi, dunyo qarashi, ishonchlari bilan birga ozingizni qanday tutgan bolar edingiz? falastindek muborak tuproqdan ozingizga vatan qilmoqchi bolsangiz?
Vatan deyishda adashmayman chunki osha tuproqlarda nechi asirlardan beri yashab kelgan yahudi millati. Sulaymon (a.s.) ning davlatining poythati ham Quddus shahri bolgan bundan 3000 yil avval.
Va yahudiylarning yagona maqsadi ozini vataniga qaytib kelish bolgan. va ular bunga erishdi ham. Besh ketish kerak togrisi ularning aqllariga.

Hech qaysi davlat oz yurtida beqarorlik bolishini hohlamaydi. shu jumladan isroil davlati ham. hozirgi kunda osha mintaqdagi ahvol shuni taqozo etarkanki beqarorlik va notinchlik evaziga bolsa ham bosib olingan hududlarni isroil qulidan chiqarmoqchi emas. agar tinchlik evaziga falastin muhtoryatiga suverenitet taminlangan bolganida isroil davlati shu masalaning yechimini qabul qilar edi degan fikrdaman.

Regarding 6 day war, it was actually Israel who made a \"preemtive strike\" against egypt. (yes you are right because israel\'s intelligence advised of preparation to war against israel by neighboring countries. and israel distroyed most of the airforce of egyptjust before the war started.)

So let me get it right again. Just because Palestine is \"strategically important to Israel for acting like a buffer against (well, well, well) Egyptians and Jordanians, who happen to be friends of Israel at present, Israel has rights to carry out atrosities against people who live there and lived there for centuries? until the security for israel will not be secured I guess this will continue

Besides, if every nation has rights to exist, then why was israel built on the lands of palestinians in the first place?Or palestinians are not people, they are merely \"strategic buffers\" is it? would you trade your security to the freedom of other people?

Besides, you stated that \"giving sovereignity to Palestine wont end the conflict\", counter question to you, does carrying on the illegal occupation, blackmailing the whole nation, building illegal walls, proceding with illegal settlements, sending tanks against stone throwing children solve the conflict? As long as America supports the terrorist regime of Israel, sheilding it from any punishment and giving them go ahead to do whatever they like, there will be groups like Hezbollah and Hamas and people and/or governments supporting them.

Shu father degan iborangiz uchun:
But how could the government of the State be like that of the family, when the basis on which they rest is so different? The father being physically stronger than his children, his paternal authority, as long as they need his protection, may be reasonably said to be established by nature. But in the great family, all the members of which are naturally equal, the political authority, being purely arbitrary as far as its institution is concerned, can be founded only on conventions, and the Magistrate can have no authority over the rest, except by virtue of the laws. The duties of a father are dictated to him by natural feelings, and in a manner that seldom allows him to neglect them. For rulers there is no such principle, and they are really obliged to the people only by what they themselves have promised to do, and the people have therefore a right to require of them. Another more important difference is that since the children have nothing but what they receive from their father, it is plain that all the rights of property belong to him, or emanate from him; but quite the opposite is the case in the great family, where the general administration is established only to secure individual property, which is antecedent to it.
Although the functions of the father of a family and those of the chief magistrate ought to make for the same object, they must do so in such different ways, and their duty and rights are so essentially distinct, that we cannot confound them without forming very false ideas about the fundamental laws of society, and falling into errors which are fatal to mankind. In fact, if the voice of nature is the best counsellor to which a father can listen in the discharge of his duty, for the Magistrate it is a false guide, which continually prevents him from performing his, and leads him on sooner or later to the ruin of himself and of the State, if he is not restrained by the most sublime virtue. The only precaution necessary for the father of a family is to guard himself against depravity, and prevent his natural inclinations from being corrupted; whereas it is these themselves which corrupt the Magistrate. In order to act aright, the first has only to consult his heart; the other becomes a traitor the moment he listens to his.

Pianist alone is not a good example to use of the Jewish Holocaust, watch movies like Schindler's list, Anne Frank, Holocaust, Sophie's Choice and Life is Beautiful. Also read some biographical non-fictions - they are pretty horrific and than we can talk about resistance then.

UzbekGirlie, movies do not reflect reality and truth. Otherwise Borat would be a great source of information about Kazakhs. Books are too.

Turks have written so much about Armenian genocide and Armenians have done the same. Who do we believe?

I am saying in general terms without referrence to Holocaust.

While I am not denying its fact, its use and misuse by political groups, just like a religion, have created so much opposition to the notion of the Holocaust.

It happened, period, point taken, but no need for the third generation of Germans to feel guilty, always yield to Jewish demands and pressure because of this, besides Jews were not discriminated too much. In every country they had their own place in government and business, even in Germany, in USSR, in Uzbekistan.

The very basic foundation ot Talmud teaches about destruction and humilation of other nations
Can you expand your statement by quotations from Talmud? General statements as such without any reasonable argument make it sound as a hate speech to me.

Ahmidenejad in his previous speeches said Israel to be wiped off the world map, and he corrected himself later on by stating that he did not mean the distruction of state of Israel, but he meant the democratic referendum and etc. Well, too bad. As a politician you need to watch what you say, people do not read your mind, they base their opinion about your intentions, especially if you are a president, based on your words.
I still do not get why he is insisting on researches on holocaust, unless he thinks there is a possibility of arguing it's existance. Which in my opinion, is an insult to jews. I read how some skin-head russians were arguing that uzbeks had anything to do with victory during WWII. I was pissed. And how can one expect Jewish population not be angry at Ahmedinejad after his bizarre speeches?
PS. Nazi Germans killed a lot of people of different ethnicities and nationalities, but you should be deaf dumb to argue that they had special hatred towards Jews.

Аманпур умненькая. Надеюсь она будет ему задавать более оригинальные вопросы. И это её не первый репортаж с Ахмаджоном, и у неё козырь-она предварительно знает своего оппонента, и уже знает как с ним вести беседу. Так как, Ахмаджон доказал на опыте что на общие вопросы он отвечает ламбадой:))) ха ха

What is the fuss about Ahmadinejad and the Jewish holoucast?

During the audience, he insisted that he did not deny the Holocaust, but clarified that there should be "more research from different perspectives" on its history.

Btw, it was funny to see many demonstrations at Columbia University both pro and against him, but many protesters at the campus were predominantly of Jewish groups. And the show got ignited by highly unusual participation of the Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni.

"-- It is critical to note that this foreign national was visiting the United States on a diplomatic visa, and it behooves us to ask whether this means that there is now a different standard for some?

When partisan and uneducated individuals engage in discrimination, one dismisses them as ignorant folks, lacking familiarity with the rest of the planet.

Yet, when such behaviour occurs among educated Americans, especially as everyone from the Middle East is considered a terrorist first, we find ourselves in a danger zone.

Does this mean that an invited head of state is now a legitimate target for insults and disrespect? Even if one does not agree with Ahmadinejad, shouldn't one listen and ask intelligent questions, before rejecting presented arguments?

Sadly, hooligans attack but when a university president berates a guest for purely political reasons, it becomes an academic dressing down. In both instances, such abuses are unbecoming - perhaps more so for trained and highly educated individuals who pretend to be cultured. --"

Well, sadly, highly anticipated Amanpour interview did not take place. Excuse me, it did but wasn't what I personally was expected. CNN just showed Christiane Amanpour, and she said she was hoping for at least half an hour interview, but Mr.Ahmedinajjads speak person contacted her today and told her that President of Iran is very tired and can answer only one question. Which they filmed and showed on tv. It was a short, 2 minute conversation. :?
Ahmedinajad said "Middle East is capable of protecting it's territory and interests itself. We do not need outside forces to interfere"

I am not sure If I heard it right but Bush said that UN will put harder sanctions on Iran and ask other countries to cooperate with him. Those countries who do not support Bush's policy will be sanctioned as well?

It is getting pretty darn scary. I am so sorry for ordinary people :(

...Ahmadinejodning aynan mana shu talabini G'arbliklar "Holocaust"ni inkor etish, deb qabul qilishmoqda...

Atrofni kuzatsangiz, 2-Jahon Urushi yillarida G'arbliklar (Cionist Yahudiy tashkilotlari, Britaniya hukumati v.b.) Yevropa yahudiylariga astoydil yordam berishmaganiga guvoh bo'lasiz.
Masalan, 1944 yilda Vengriyada Adolf Eichmann degan fashist (1962 yilda Isroilda qatl etilgan) Hitlerning ko'rsatmasiga binoan Vengriyadagi Yahudiylarga yordam berish qo'mitasi boshlig'i Brandtga 1 Million yahudiyni sotib olishni taklif qiladi. Buning uchun yahudiylardan pul emas, 10.000 dona yuk mashinasi talab qiladi va bu borada dunyo yahudiylar tashkilotlari va G'arb allianci bilan muzokara qilish uchun Brandtni Istanbulga jo'natib yuboradi.
Yahudiylar va Britaniya harbiylari Brandtni tinglab, yahudiylarga yordam berish chorasini ko'rish o'rniga, uni olib qolishadi (hibsga olish bilan teng)...
Axir, hozirda deylik Avg'onistonda o'g'irlab ketilgan 2-3 ta g'arblik uchun uning davlati necha million dollar to'lab, ozod qilvoladi...
1.000.000 yahudiyni qutqarish uchun 10.000 ta mashina...
Fashistlar G'arb allianciga u yuk mashinalarini sovetlarga qarshi urushda Sharq frontida foydalanishga va'da ham berishadi. (ular bu va'da ustidan chiqisharmidi-yo'qmi, boshqa masala. Fakt shuki, ular 1 Million yahudiyni sotishlari mumkin edi...)
Brandt qaytib kelmagach, uning yordamchisi Rudolf Kastner va Brandtning xotini pul yig'ib, 1.648 nafar Budapest yahudiylarini (Nuh kemasidagi kabi, jamiyatning har qatlami va kasbi vakillaridan ro'yxat tuzishadi) qutqarib chiqib ketishadi. Poezd avval Germaniyaga, Bergen-Belsen konclageriga boradi va bu yahudiylar u yerda 6 oy qolishadi, keyin Shveycariyaga chiqarib yuborilishadi... (bu vaqtda 300.000 dan ortiq Vengriyalik yahudiylar Birkenauda o'ldirilgan edi...)

Auschwitz-Birkenau konclagerini ham G'arb allianci ancha erta bilishgan, hatto bu konclager ustidan bir necha bor uchib o'tishgan... AQSh (va Britaniya harbiy qo'mondonligi) esa konclagerni (pechkaxonani) bombardimon qilishga samoletlar jo'natish taklif-talablarini rad etishadi (!)...

Bu ma'lumotlarni hamma joyda ham o'qib bo'lmaydi...

PS. Nazi Germans killed a lot of people of different ethnicities and nationalities, but you should be deaf dumb to argue that they had special hatred towards Jews.

I can't believe you have much evidence of French people mistreated by the Nazis that would make them comparable to other groups listed.

А я всетаки торонник того что Америка уже готова к новой войне против.ннннн.-го государства..
Вы толко представте, то что война - это деньги. А деньги это благосостояние нации. нет войны - нет работы для оборонки, тысячи высоко квалифицированных безработных. в америке Армия контрактная, ребят которые вернуться с Ирака просто переведут в резерв с пенсионным содержанием.

Вы вспомните почему США стали участвовать во Второй Мировой? потому что экономика была совсем плохая и производство было низкое. Голод, люди, мафия, корупция.
Только Война помогла.

Теперь ситуация на Американском Рынке совсем плохая, на днях Канадский переплюнул Американского. Рынок недвижимости терпит не лучшие времена. Также и на рынке мебели, траснпорта и одежды - сплошной застой. Многие фирменные бренды уже прекратили своё существование.

Нам нужна Война, лет так на 5-6 может Ахмадинеждат всетаки согласиться.:D
