I watched it without sound. His body language is that of a petulant loser, not a statesman.

"Four or five years ago, a suspicious event occurred in New York. A building collapsed and they said that 3,000 people had been killed but never published their names," Ahmadinejad told Iranians in the holy city of Qom.

Both the leaders of Israel and the leaders of Iran had interesting reactions to 9/11. You shared some quotes from the leader of Israel so I thought it'd be good to share some from the leader of Iran, since the OP deals with those two countries.

15 times, I believe.

The article is clearly about the issues between Israel and Iran.

Edit to add: By the way, TownHall is a conservative website, just FYI.

If you'd like me to pull some quotes from him on the subject, I'd be happy to do so.

I would also point out that I loathe Netanyahu and the current Israeli government.

As to Netanyahu, I remember many attacking Kerry for "mocking" Netanyahu by referring to Netanyahu's poster -- not even using an adjective like "ridiculous" which I would have used.

Netanyahu is bad for Israel.

He was viewed unfavorable here and rightfully so.

Iran has been under RW leadership for quite some time now.

He never said that. My husband speaks farsi. On the contrary, he sent the American people his condolences. He did say a lot of conspiracy nonsense, but nothing what it claims here.

We need to cut off all foreign aid to Iran, and quit propping them up, and giving Iran so much favorable coverage in all our media outlets! Something Must Be Done!

Thank Jah there are some courageous voices willing to cry out in the wilderness to expose Iran, darling of the pointy-headed East Coast elites.

that resulted in the US and UK claiming justification for the Iraq war. http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/world/iraq/2003-12-04-israeli-iraq-threat_x.htm

And Netanyahu lied about Iraqi WMD in testimony before the US Congress: http://www.c-span.org/video/?c4529120/netanyahus-expert-testimony-iraq-2002

Whose lies have been worse? (Hint: Not Iran's.)

Don't try to get them off the hook - Bush wanted his war against Saddam and was going to make sure he got it by any means necessary.
