Explanation: Nope! He was still correct ... this is what he said in his speech ...
Personal Disclosure: This isn't about what wiki says or what the picture I linked implies ... it is about what Mr Ahmadenijad said and whether my sources back that up ... and they do.
Please stay on topic!
And he may have got the numbers slightly wrong [it only takes the quik closure of a single F.O.B. to do that]

He also denied the Holocaust. I have family who survived the ordeal. I know many others whose families survived the ordeal. This man is a liar, and when you back religion quite like he does, lying seems all the more justified.
Educate yourself before your repeat stupidity. I dont once remember him ever denying the holocaust. He mentioned that the official death toll was over 6 million and now it officially sits at 1/6th that so like intelligent people alike, some histories need to be revised.

No....
Actually it's WRONG.
That retarded propaganda map shows bases practically everywhere in the world the problem with that over used map is that it counts US Embassy "Marine guards" as a "Military" presence.
Just look at that map again the US has bases in Russia and China Not only that, but the Wiki link you think is supporting his claim shows only 25 out 195 countries as having bases. Also the map shows bases that the US supposedly has in countries not listed in your link. So, which is BS? All this proves is that his claim or that map [Take your pick - both are BS] are exaggerated. But feel free to keep quoting them.

What is the justification for the presence of hundreds of US military and intelligence bases in different parts of the world, including 268 bases in Germany, 124 in Japan, 87 in South Korea, 83 in Italy, 45 in the United Kingdom, and 21 in Portugal? Does this mean anything other than military occupation?

Here is the truth. The Pres. of Iran had a chance to speak positively about his country. To talk about it's future and peace in the middle East. Instead, he used this opportunity to rant about the same ole BS!
To proclaim how Israel will be wiped off the map. To deny the holocaust ever took place. To blame the worlds problems on the West mainly the U.S. you know the big bad "Satan"!
The guy is a clown and many there thought so. They should have walked out!

You sure seem to have a propensity for dictators and a hatred for America.
While President Ahmadinejad is lecturing the world from the U.N. podium," Human Rights Watch's U.N. Director Philippe Bolopion said, "dissent is still being crushed ruthlessly in Iran and basic rights demanded by millions in the Arab world are brutally denied to Iranians who are demanding the same." "The world assembly should take with a grain of salt the remarks of a leader who said nothing about the public hanging yesterday of a 17-year-old in his own country," he said.
In his speech, Ahmadinejad noted "the widespread awakening in Islamic lands ... (in) the pursuit of the realization of justice, freedom and the creation of a better tomorrow." He said "our great nationa stands ready to join hands with other nations to march on this beautiful path."
The Iranian leader accused the U.S. of threatening to place sanctions on anyone who questions the Holocaust and the Sept. 11 attacks with sanctions and military action.
Without naming the United States, he asked: "Who imposed, through deceits and hypocrisy, the Zionism and over 60 years of war, homelessness, terror and mass murder on the Palestinian people and on countries in the region?"
Ahmadinejad accused some unidentified European countries of still using the Holocaust "as the excuse to pay fine or ransom to the Zionists." He also said any question about the foundation of Zionism is condemned by the U.S. "as an unforgivable sin."

Yes, but they still have a responsibility to sit there and listen to it and earn their pay.
If they were smart, they would schedule themselves to address the U.N. directly after Amadinijad.
That way, if he rambled on as expected, they could get up and say "That guy is frickin nuts, eh?"
How are they supposed to make their report to the State Department? Watch the rest of the speech on the internet and hope it hadn't been edited?
