Now, you wouldn't say a country indirectly disliking another country would create a great image.

A contest was launched in February in response to widespread Muslim outrage at the publication of Danish cartoons depicting the Prophet Mohammed in European newspapers.



Iran cartoon show mocks Holocaust



'We are concerned about the real holocaust, which is happening to Palestinians,' said Tabatabai. 'Why should Palestinians pay for events which happened thousands of kilometres away in Europe?'

The exhibition comes at time when displays of official anti-Zionist propaganda in Iran have reached new levels following the conflict in Lebanon between Israel and the Iranian-backed Shia militia, Hizbollah.

Nevertheless, some of those attending seemed more interested in the art and uncertain about the underlying political convictions of the work on show. 'It's a good exhibition with different levels of artistic ability,' said Mohammed, 26, a student in Tehran University's fine arts faculty. 'Of course I'm supportive of the Palestinians. But if so many artists decided to participate in this contest, then the Holocaust must have happened.'

That is a very good question from a student.


"Why should Palestinians pay for events which happened thousands of kilometres away in Europe?'"

It is interesting that the Islamic world retaliates for Danish newspaper cartoons by attacking Jews with cartoons. The only connection I can see is that Jews own the majority of newspapers. This is not meant to be anti-semitic. Jews do own a large number of the world's newspapers.

see, I was watching a program on the religious take over by aytolah Humani (or however it's spelt), now at the time, he was one of 2 imans trying to guide through iran and away from the shah...arguably, this older cleric was more popular than Humani, and was kind of his senior.....

well, you may think the older fella might have been worse....untrue, his dying words were "BEWARE OF THE TOTALITARIAN DICTATOR WHO DRESSES HIMSELF IN CLERICAL SHEEPSKIN"

Now if someone had bloody listened to THAT, there would be no Al Queda...simple.
