2010: "September 11 was a big lie and a pretext for the war on terror and a prelude to invading Afghanistan." - Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, while addressing Intelligence Ministry staff.
Ironically, the New Yorker piece continued, "A second vigil, the next night, was attacked by the basij, a volunteer force of religious vigilantes, and then dispersed by the police. The vigils may have been the only pro-American demonstrations in the Islamic world after the terrorist attacks on the United States."
Eerie.
