Iran’s lunatic president said today,
Mr. Ahmadinejad said confrontation with Israel was a “national and religious duty” and that the Holocaust was “a lie” used as a pretext for the country’s creation in 1948.
Quite a piece of work, the Iranian government,
The [Iranian] government had largely halted street protests in July, with a harsh government crackdown that left dozens of marchers dead and thousands in jail. But the authorities have been unable to silence the opposition’s leaders, who have kept up their criticism of the election and the government’s violent response. The opposition leaders raised tensions when they leveled accusations that some protesters were tortured and raped in prison. The rape accusations have been especially embarrassing for the government, which has denied them while acknowledging that some prisoners were tortured.
The thin tea of the Obama administration’s response,
“Obviously, we condemn what he said,” [Obama's press secretary] told reporters.
Obviously.
