Seems almost like he is saying it is a "legend", like "myth" but more as in "something which is blown out of proportion and that is being used to perpetuate an agenda". This is of course, only slightly less offensive. But I don't really think this guy is insane, just perhaps not in line with general thinking here in the West. But I could be wrong. My point is, it's good to have big ears. Sometimes it is fun for me to post things like this just to get you all riled up.

You are openly defending a man who wants Israel wiped off the face of the Earth and says the Holocaust never happened. I know you can be a touch (okay a lot) more liberal than me, but are seriously saying his statement's were just "a bit out there"? To get a sense of where he is coming from readers need to have an "open mind," are you suggesting that those of us that believe in the holocaust (and lost family to it) have closed minds? You also say in a "a testament to his tolerance and statesmanship," do you truly believe his previous comments to be tolerant? I can't believe you wrote this….
