I think he meant that he saw it on the news.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

Really? lol...thats strange, given that I'm certain that the no news stations aired a sound recording, and even if they did, without a translation it wouldn't of really meant much would it, given that the statements were made in arabic.

Generally they do air the sound recording and either do a voice translation over the top or write it down for you at the bottom of the screen. I also think he repeated the statements a number of times in order to try to justify them.

You clearly have trouble with the concept of a sound recording. If it has a translation over the top, then it becomes a translation, not a recording.

its a very simple concept, and I find it amazing that you don't understand it. Though I suspect you do, and are deliberately being difficult.

There was a recording made of his speech and people there also witnessed and reported on what was said and someone from some form of Arabic studies from I think Sydney University translated the speech for the media.

oh dear...  many sources confirming what he said.

The translation does not completely replace the original recording. Hence you cans till here the original recording. In any case, that is generally used for politicians making offical statements. I suspect it is very hard to do and still be understandable. When someone lunatic rants, they usually just use the text option.
