copyright 2009, The Washington Post WASHINGTON -- Many think Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is an embarrassment, unfit to run even a small state here, let alone such an important country. But it turns out Ahmadinejad has at least one important trait in common with some leading governors and American presidents. In an interview Wednesday with The Washington Post and Newsweek, Ahmadinejad claimed to have no knowledge of two letters Obama reportedly sent Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, even though they were reported in the Iranian media. 'I don't read the press, so I would not know,' he said. That may be one reason he doesn't know about the Holocaust.
