You are not alone, Richard. It’s been happening to many of us regular commenters. Phil says it has to do with proxy servers. He said he was trying to get to the bottom of
it.

Instead, Kathleen, you are supposed to go with Jewish translations of what Ahmadenejad said. Sammo with his take the Jews call “holocaust denial.”

Debunking translations is always a two -way street. Good to know the applicable language to get the real truth. Too bad most Americans barely know English, let alone any foreign language. That’s why they are easy pickin’s.

The propaganda campaign is really heating up:

Israeli FM wants Hitler photo to mute world pressure
(AFP) – 21 hours ago
JERUSALEM — Israel’s ultra-nationalist Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has ordered embassies abroad to use a photo of Adolf Hitler meeting a top Palestinian cleric to counter international criticism over a Jerusalem settlement project, a senior Israeli official said on Wednesday.
The decision to circulate a 1941 photo featuring the Nazi dictator sitting with the then grand mufti of Jerusalem Amin al-Husseini is aimed at easing pressure on Israel over a construction project on land in annexed east Jerusalem once owned by the cleric, the official told AFP.
“The foreign minister ordered the distribution of the photo to all embassies abroad as a response to the Shepherd Hotel incident in order to prove a well-known point that the mufti collaborated with Hitler,” the official said on condition of anonymity.

It is possible. There are plenty of people who speak the language who have given a different translation and Ahmedinejad himself clarified his statements by saying the Soviet Union no longer existed.

So Witty, reconcile that further clarification from Ahmedinejad and your statement that the Iranian government went on record confirming that the meaning was an incitement to genocide.

Also, was it the Iranian government? What do you mean by press service? Where is the source? Has there been a follow-up article that does what I’m asking YOU to do? Meaning, further clarification considering the President’s analogy to Russia.

Kathleen,
The “wipe Israel off the map” was the translation provided to the western press by the Iranian press service of the speech.

Its not possible to “debunk” a translation that they provided.

Hey Phillip Weiss and team. I have been thinking about how we need a site or thread where people can document how often they hear these unsubstantiated claims and alleged comments are repeated by our leaders, the I lobby and warmongers.

A MSM watch.

Terri Gross repeated these claims in her last two programs on Iran.

Hillary Clinton just repeated these false claims again
