Iranian President: 9/11 a "suspicious event"

One of the few times that I truly admire CNN; they call the man out and show him for the idiot he is:

Although Iran has condemned the 2001 al Qaeda attacks on New York and Washington in the past, this was the third time in a week that Ahmadinejad questioned the death toll, who was behind the attacks and how it happened.

"Four or five years ago, a suspicious event occurred in New York. A building collapsed and they said that 3,000 people had been killed but never published their names," Ahmadinejad told Iranians in the holy city of Qom.

But:

On the last anniversary of the attacks, the names of 2,750 victims killed in New York were read aloud at a memorial ceremony.

The BBC, by contrast, shows their incredible insight by not bothering to point out the glaring lie in Ahmadinejad's statement. Similarly, Truthdig.com, which poured tears over the denial to allow Ahmad to visit ground zero last year, had nothing to say this time.
