Is Kohl making a bobo?

According to Iranian media former chancellor Kohl has agreed with Iranian president that the holocaust is a myth...
I was baffled when I read this, I do not believe that Kohl would be stupid enough to say this even if he believed it. I could get on a rant here and discuss the whole ludicrous notion that a event as well documented and witnessed as the holocaust is deemed a hoax.

So should we believe this? Of course not but still it needs to be addressed and I want to put the spotlight on Kohl, he has done some stupid things but this borders on insanity. Probably good he had to go.
