IRIB: "Iran has no problem with Americans"

Sometimes I wonder if IRIB is a parody site:
President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said on Monday Iranians have not any problem with the American people and that it is the US administration that has inflicted damage on the Iranian nation.

"Iranians are from a great civilization who have proved throughout the history that they stand on their own feet and do not fear any threats."

"To the dismay of all ill-wishers, Iran has managed to tread the path of development and currently many countries are eager to cooperate with Iran," President Ahmadinejad said in an interview with USA Today.

He said that if certain states wanted to impose restrictions on Iran, they are actually damaging themselves, because, the time for unilateral equation is gone.
"Unilateral equation." There needs to be a term for this sort of thing. Irangrish? I know you're wondering--if this is an item from the Iranian press, where is the Holocaust part?
[Barbara] Slavin asked about Holocaust, President Ahmadinejad said that Iran has offered to set up an impartial team to hold inquiry into the furnaces for massacre of Jews by Nazis.

"We say that even if the Holocaust is true, the western nations have committed the crime and they should pay the price for the genocide. The international community should not expect the Palestinians to pay the price for genocide of the Jews," President Ahmadinejad said.
