TEHRAN, Iran — An Iranian-hosted conference of Holocaust deniers heard the former Imperial Wizard of the Klu Klux Klan declare Tuesday that Jews did not die in Nazi gas chambers.
"The Zionists have used the Holocaust as a weapon to deny the rights of the Palestinians and cover up the crimes of Israel," David Duke told a gathering of nearly 70 "researchers" gathered in Tehran at the invitation of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the CBC reported.
"This conference has an incredible impact on Holocaust studies all over the world," said Duke, a former state representative in Louisiana who twice ran for president.
"The Holocaust is the device used as the pillar of Zionist imperialism, Zionist aggression, Zionist terror and Zionist murder," Duke told The Associated Press.
Ahmadinejad opened Tuesday's session by thanking God that the Zionist regime was declining, telling conference participants, “its lifetime will be over and their interests as well as reputation will be endangered,” the Islamic Republican News Agency reported.

David Duke and Mahmood Amhadinutjob. Perfect together.
You took the fonts right off my keyboard.
All we've worked for -- gone (is the way I feel anyway).
I have very few memories of the first church my family attended (I was very young at the time -- maybe 5 or 6). But I do remember a man coming to my class and describing his participation his the liberation of a camp. I don't really know why he came to my Sunday School class -- you could say it wasn't an age appropriate topic.
I didn't really understand much of what he said, but I certainly remember the event. It affected him deeply, and I knew at the time that something very wrong had taken place. And that, in some small way, he had tried to fix things.
I don't want to sound like John Kerry, but it really was seared in my memory.
Quick can we just go ahead and bomb Teheran now while Duke is still there?
"I feel like I am living in a parallel universe from the one I lived in just six months ago."
For some years now I have been feeling like the frequency and magnitude of bad events has been increasing. When I have brought it up, people have said, "No, it's just that we hear about more now than we used to because of our communications technology."
What do you think?
Depraved morons babbling to each other -- if the civilized (sometimes) nations of the world do not wake up soon to what the Iranian regime is all about, it's going to get a lot worse before it gets better.... Iran cannot be allowed to get nukes.
I realize Duke has freedom of speech in the USA even when he spouts nonsense, but he travels to Iran, an islamic terrorist-back country that's clearly anti-American, and overexerts his freedom of speech where the average Iranian doesn't have that right. What's wrong with this picture?
Well, since we are all news junkies to begin with, I would think that we, of all people, would be able to discern when all hell is breaking loose.
And I think we're at a flat out run toward ever living hell.
I know what you're saying. I believe the much of the west is in a stage of profound denial. The deeper the sleep, the harsher the wake up call will be.
Deport Duke to Iran.
It's amazing these tough men who saw plenty of blood and guts without blinking an eye become so emotional when they talk of the camps. How they managed to refrain from just going and shooting every single camp guard on the spot, I'll never know.
I wonder if Pat Buchanan was also invited as a guest speaker.
Is it possible that Iran's regime feels even more emboldened with the ascendency of their allies in the US Congress?
An obvious plumbing cross connection. Honest mistake and all that sort of thing.
Hmm going to an enemy country and saying those things, sounds like treason to me.
Now, now Pat lost a dear relative in the Holocaust, he fell out of the guard tower.
BTW, I found it very well done - the status of its curatorship was well above most of the Smithsonian museums I visited.
Honestly.........seriously........I just cannot take much more news like this.
