Iranian wire services have begun posting reaction to President Ahmadinejad’s speech at the U.N.’s Durban II conference. The full links and summaries will be in tomorrow’s Iran News Round Up (and will be posted at IranTracker) tomorrow. But, just a sampling courtesy of Ali Alfoneh:

– Alef News Agency called Ahmadinejad’s speech “iconoclastic.”
– Asr-e Iran said the countries which boycotted the speech were outed as vulnerable to Zionist pressure.
— International affairs ‘expert’ Hojjat al-Eslam Ghasem Ravanbakhsh said that “the epic of [Ahmadinejad’s speech at] Columbia [University] was repeated in Geneva.”

Meanwhile, a Summer 2007 piece from George Michael (no, not that George Michael) in the Middle East Quarterly on Ahmadinejad’s Holocaust Revisionism. And, while foolks like Juan Cole have made a cottage industry of claiming that Ahmadinejad never called for Israel to be wiped off the map (despite the official Iranian translation saying just that), Joshua Teitelbaum’s longer essay (“What Iranian Leaders Really Say About Doing Away with Israel” (.pdf) is well worth a read.
