Iran - President Claims Allies Invented Holocaust

Iran - Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sent a letter to German Chancellor Angela Merkel in which he stated that the Holocaust was invented by the allies in order to embarrass Germany.

Also according to Ahmadinejad, who has repeatedly denied the Holocaust, the countries that were victorious in World War II should have allowed the refugees to settle in their countries instead of promoting their settlement in "conquered Palestine". This, he argued, has created a permanent threat in the Middle East.
