Denying Holocaust

Kamangir | January 25, 2006 | Category Iran

I think the “fact” that Jewish people have been living in ancient Jerusalem does not justify the occupation of Palestine. It is like Iran invading Macedonia because they killed many Iranians hundreds of years ago. At the same time, I see no meaning for Ahmadinejad stating “Israel should be wiped off the map”. It is interesting though to see Shirak threatening Iran that France may use nuclear weapons to defeat terrorists. It is like nobody is afraid of saying unreasonable words.

There was a Persian article in Gooya (see) about how idiot and criminal are all those people who deny Holocaust. I have heard that many people believe that Holocaust is just a myth. With the power of media, I would not be surprised to see them making whole sets of events that never exist. Like what CNN did to Ahmadinejad. A translator is claimed to translate a sentence like “we have the right to have peaceful nuclear technology” as “we have the right to have nuclear weaponry” and then CNN broadcasted it all over the world. They apologized later, but did it reduce the tension made by the later action? It is like media are doing their act as tools for the super powers more professionally, these days.

Being a lie or being a truth, Holocaust is now a “fact”. When trying to prove it is wrong, one would actually make people suspicious about his own ambitions.

Isn’t it more reasonable to try to stop another disaster, like what is going to happen in Iran if Ahmadinejad remains in power?
