The Holocaust and the Mullahs in Iran

Ahmadihnejad, the representative of the terrorist mullahs in Iran, questions the historical reality of the Holocaust (Holocaust=catastrophe.)  The revisionist topics discussed in Teheran on the 11^th and 12^th of December, 2006, denied the existence of gas chambers, repeating that the Holocaust is a “myth” and an “enormous lie” and deploring that this question cannot be debated in the western world.

            The representative of the mullahs in Iran, Ahmadinejad, would like, under the cover of historic objectivity, justify the wish that “Israel be scratched from the map.”

            Manouchehr Mottaki, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the mullahs, had raised the topic of ambiguity in the conference:  the denunciation of Israel through the question of Zionism, whose “methods” are compared to those of “Nazism.”  For Mottaki, anti-Semitism is a “European phenomenon.”  The Jewish community in Iran (25,000 people versus 60,000 before the Khomeinist Revolution of 1979) expressed its opposition.  Only the Jewish Deputy of the country, Moris Motamed, declared that “to deny the Holocaust is an immense insult.”

            Before this reunion, on December 11, during the visit of Ahmadinejad at the Amir-Kabir University in Teheran, a group of students cried out, “death to the dictator Ahmadinejad,” and burnt photos of him before his eyes because the week before, 2000-3000 students have protested in Teheran for the first time in two years against the policy of the government in the University, as well as the presence of Islamic governmental committees and difference Islamic associations pro-regime at the University.  Sunday, hundreds of students denounced the reform and the suspension of 20 of their members.
