Iran's President is Straight Nuts

Would it be safe to say that people who think the Holocaust never happened could be put in the same category as those who still think the world is flat? I would say so...

From Wikipedia:
In a December 2005 speech, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said that the Holocaust was a "fairy tale" that had been promoted to protect Israel, ramping up his rhetoric and triggering a fresh wave of international denunciation. "They have fabricated a legend under the name 'Massacre of the Jews', and they hold it higher than God himself, religion itself and the prophets themselves," he said. He also called for Israel to be relocated to Germany, or Austria, arguing it was these nations that persecuted the Jews, so they ought to bear the responsibility, not Palestinians forsaking their land to form a nation of Israel. He also suggested relocating Israeli Jews to the United States.

Show me the data! Where are the data?! (thanks to Christopher Buckley for enlightening me to the use of the plural verb when using the word "data").

He may be nuts, but I'll bet he is really friendly!
