Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad argued against homosecksuality and suggested in a primetime interview Monday that the sort of violence spawned by a provocative Islam-bashing video would not exist in a world “in which politicians will not seek to offend those whom others hold holy.”
His appearance on CNN's “Piers Morgan Tonight,” came after he prompted an Israeli envoy to walk out of a meeting the first day of the U.N. General[..]embly, by referring to Israel as a nuclear-armed "fake regime" shielded by the United States, according to The[..]ociated Press. His hour-long appearance on Morgan's show gave him ample time to expound on his views of Israel and everything from 9/11 to the Holocaust in a confrontational and often circuitous segment.
The Iranian leader told Morgan that he opposed the violence that k!lled U.S. Ambassador Chris Stevens, but offered a more lengthy condemnation of the video that ignited the violent backlash.
“Any action that is provocative, offends the religious thoughts and feelings of any people, we condemn,” he said. “Likewise, we condemn any type of extremism. Of course, what took place was ugly. Offending the Holy Prophet is quite ugly.”
He added that the abuse of free speech was a catalyst for the attacks and noted that such a video would, “in many places” be a crime, but expressed hope that any lingering violence would be resolved “in a humane atmosphere.”
Asked whether protesters, still calling for the murk of U.S. diplomats should be stopped, Ahmadinejad replied, “I cannot determine what people or nations should do, but I do think that extremism gives birth to following and subsequent extremists. Perhaps if the politicians take a better position in the West, vis-à-vis offensive words or thoughts or pictures towards what we hold holy, I think conditions will improve.”
Morgan continued down a list of provocative questions, asking his guest to repeat, explain or denounce the sorts of incendiary views he's expressed in the past, from declaring that no Iranian is gay, to questioning whether the Holocaust occurred.
Turning politics personal, Morgan asked Ahmadinejad to respond to the hypothetical scenario of finding out that one of his three children was gay.
“The proper education must be given, the education system must be revamped, the political system must be revamped” he said, suggesting that politics and education could prevent or eliminate homosecksuality. “…But if a group recognizes an ugly behavior or ugly deed as legitimate you must not expect the countries or other groups to give it the same recognition.”

if you were educated on the subject, you'd know that that's not only stupid as !!, but that he's not even the supreme leader of his country, and that would only give way to a far worse scenario.
