He's anti-semetic, ignorant, and uneducated.

6 million. So we have been told. Horrible. Can't question that at all, can we?
Or can we?
Maybe it was 3 million. 1 million? I don't know, and I can't investigate to find out without being accused of anti-semitism. Still a horrible tragedy, but this is the kind of questioning that needs to be done so that the facts are completely clear, not allowed any exaggerations which can be used by the nuts to say it didn't happen.
How many Iraqis have been killed since 1990 by Americans? How many people are dying from industrial accidents, 'legal' pollution, and flouride? We are not allowed to find out easily. These things don't involve conspiracies or racism, yet we can't investigate without being called anarchists or unpatriotic liberals.
The facts need to be clear, regardless of what they are. Little mistakes in the record books lead to things like Creationist teachings in schools, flouride in toothpaste and water, and wars against terrorists in the WRONG country.
NO MORE SECRETS!!

Yeah the dude is a little nuts. The Holocaust definitely happened, although there is somewhat of a disagreement in circles about the number of Jews actually killed. What's funny is how few people seem to mention the number of Slavic civilians that were killed during and after the war....

Why do people say racist or insulting things on Yahoo! Answers? Same reason. They just want to cause controversy or chaos, or provoke someone into attacking them.
By the way, it's not just the leader of Iran saying that. My understanding is that the leader of the Ku Klux Klan in America also supports that theory, and attended the Iranian conference.
There are many people who choose to believe that the entire genocide was a hoax, or that it was not as bad as it was made out to be. Personally, I think you should read and explore and learn as much as you can on the topic (and not just from one book or one point of view), then make up your own mind.
I think there is too much evidence (photos, mass graves, statements from Nazi and Allied soldiers, and eye-witness accounts from prisoners) to say that the attrocities did not occur.
But many people believe only what they were taught in school or only what their government tells them. Everyone should learn to think for themselves and ask questions.

The Holocaust may be exagerrated by Israel to get support to do their dastardly deeds in the middle east. They are supported by the US to the tune of about 1/3 of all aid the US doles out every year. I think Jews control the media so they really try to play up the holocaust. The Russian holocaust was much larger but no one ever talks about that. I personally think Israel is a war monger in the middle east. No other Arab states are invading anyone. Look what they did to those poor Palestinian people. The news never shows this.

If its a lie,The Jews have no claim to Israel and should go back to Germaine.The British would have no rite to have poshed the Palestinians a side to make room for the Jews.When the Germaine's lost W.W.II.The British moved the victims of the Holocaust to Israel.Palestinians see them as invader's.The same way the Native Americana's see the white man.And the Australian Aubergine's see the White man.

Sadly, I don't know why he said that. But I remember when I was in high school, and we were talking about the Holocaust. A boy in my class said he believed it didn't happen. I asked why becuase I was confused. He said he felt it was all a political mess made up by governments to cover up secrets. I know the Holocaust was real, and it was a terrible tragedy that we all should learn from. We all need to learn to love one another despite our differences.

just ignore him, he just hates jews and tries to provoke them. always a last resort for a loser. but what i dont understand from the Israelis (not all and certainly not all jews) is that after been thru a terrible ordeal like that, they treat the Palestine's so terrible now. u would think that descendants of people who were killed en mass and driven from there land would never inflict a similar thing on an other people. is it that hard to share some land???

Ahmadinajab spews nothing but hateful rhetoric. But to the question you asked? You can't very well say you are out to destroy the state of Isael and to kill as many jews as you possibily can if they have the history of having been tortured, tormented and killed in the recent past, now can ya?
That said, sadly he isn't the only one making this claim.

Iran's dicktator (no, I did NOT misspell that word in this particular instance) needs to be removed from power. He is the next Hitler. Also, David Duke should be arrested and held as an enemy combatant for attending that stupid conference.
