Al S.E. offers a rebuttal.
Essentially, his argument boils down to that what Ahmadinejad was actually saying was that the Holocaust has become Israel's raison d'etre and that the west in general exploits it as a way to attack Muslims.
As for the first part, I have commented on the "the Holocaust caused Israel to exist" idea here. As for the second, I think that that is not only a gross oversimplification, but also assumes that the people in Muslim countries are a lot better than I think they really are. But if this is what he was saying, it is a far cry from what he has been accused of saying.
That is all.
