Piers Morgan’s interviewed Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad on Sunday. The interview airs at 9 p.m. EDT tonight on CNN, and apparently Ahmadinejad told Morgan he’s all about loving Jewish people. Because that seems plausible.
AHMADINEJAD: 'I see love amongst people as completely acceptable. There are many Jews living in Iran with whom we are very close.' CNN 9pmET

By “love amongst,” we’re pretty sure he meant “extermination of.”
Morgan also grilled Ahmadinejad about his denial of the Holocaust.
Me to Ahmadinejad: 'Do you believe 6m Jews were killed by Nazis?' He responded by calling ME a Dictator…. #CNN 9pmET

AHMADINEJAD: 'So, I must accept the premise of your question in order to give you the answer? That’s a dictatorship.' #CNN 9pm/ET

Fair to say that President Ahmadinejad and I locked horns over the Holocaust, gay rights, Syria & Israel. Gets very lively. #CNN 9p,/ET.
