I was going from your translation. Here it is again: "In regard to Zionist
claim based on murder and burning of 6 million Jews during the World War II,
he (Ahamdinejad) explained..."

It doesn't say "in regard to the Zionist claim OF murder and burning of 6
million Jews," it says "in regard to Zionist claim BASED ON murder..." The
Zionist claim BASED ON the murder etc. is their claim to a "homeland" in
Israel where they can be free of such persecution. That, of course, is an
extension of the ORIGINAL Zionist claim (which preceded WWII, obviously),
which was their claim to a homeland in Israel based on persecution and
anti-Semitism in Europe.
