September 24, 2010 Ahmadinejad: US Behind 9/11 Attacks ----------------------------------- At the United Nations, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Thursday that most people believe the US government was responsible for the attacks of September 11. The US delegation responded to the comment by leaving in protest. Ahmadinejad also criticized the US for the invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad: “It was said that some 3,000 people were killed on the 11th of September, for which we are all very saddened. Yet, up until now, in Afghanistan and Iraq, hundreds of thousands of people have been killed, millions wounded and displaced, and the conflict is still going on and expanding.” .
