Re: Ahmadinejad is an idiot
Sorry to disappoint the swarm of ahmedenijad fans and supporters but this move as a head of a state to go to a UN general assembly in New York, the city where 9/11 attacks occurred, and accuse US government of involvement in 9/11 is just not a smart move on Ahmedenijad’s part. It is one thing to have these theories come out for conspiracy theorists but the place and the stage required him to show some sense which he showed himself to be incapable of. He has pushed the limits of the hospitality of his host country and lost important support in a world forum by showing himself as a hysterical nutcase that should not be taken seriously.
This has nothing to do with his hyperbole positions against Israel and west in general that many people around here love him so much for. His religious orientation also seem to get him unquestioned support from a certain sect. All the responses in his support here are focused on these aspects and not answering the foolishness of his utterances in this particular speech.
As far as the question to who committed the 9/11 attacks, Ahmedenijad and his supporters should listen to the people that have taking credit for their deed ever since. AQ has issued many statements and videos accepting the responsibility. In one propaganda video, Mustafa Abu Yazid, accepted the responsibility and blamed the Iranians for propagating the theory of Jews not going to work in the towers on 9/11. He claimed that this was an attempt on part of shias (no love lost between AQ and them) to take the credit away from the mujahideen. Now, that is an ironically funny situation.
Didn’t one head of state go to UN and gave “proof” of Iraq having WMDs and other nonsense? They went to war, attacked two countries and killed thousands of people.
Him (Ahmadenajad) simply denying holocaust and other random stuff is far less damaging than lying to attack other nations.
