New levels of insanity noted. Ynet news story

Advisor to President Ahmadinejad claims Nazi leader was Jew who conspired with USSR and Britain to establish Jewish state

In the interview, translated by MEMRI (Middle East Media Research Institute) Mohammad-Ali Ramin, a chief aide to Ahmadinejad, told Baztab that Hitler's paternal grandmother was a Jewish prostitute and his father even kept his Jewish name until finally changing it to Hitler when he was 40.

Ramin also claimed that the reason Hitler developed such an aversion to Judaism was because his Jewish mother was a promiscuous woman. Hitler therefore, says Ramin, tried to escape his religion.

Ynet? Isn't that what Khrushchev was yelling while pounding his shoe at the UN? Ynet being Russian for, no.
That makes sense, as this story came from Ynet(no) News dot com.

But I suppose if you repeat it often enough, to uneducated people, it might gain legs in the camel bazaar gossip. Probably be seized upon by people that want to believe anything negative, too....but that's redundant, yes?

It would appear the Ahmadinejad & company are on a personal mission to repair any sympathy Israel lost, from the community of nations, during the Lebanon fiasco. :confused:

It is somehow comforting to know that America has not totally cornered the market in conspiracy loonies.:tinfoil:

Hitler's (paternal) grandmother was not jewish, but worked for a jewish family when she got pregnant. Conspiracies are indeed global and them Iran neocons are as nuts as anywhere.

MEMRI is a jewish organisation specialized in translating and publishing anti-semite articles.

Is there anything Iran doesn't blame on the Jews?

Nice weather, but that's probably about it.
