Iran Holocaust conference opens

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | other press author Monday December 11, 2006 12:01author by pat c Report this post to the editors

An unfortunate gathering, especially following Tehrans Holocaust cartoon competition. This is no Histography Conference; the Iranian Foreign MInister has said: The first question to be posed is: Did the Holocaust actually happen or not? No mistaking that agenda.

Conference participants include:

Australian Fredrick Toeben, jailed in Germany for incitement and insulting the memory of the dead

Frenchman Robert Faurisson, convicted in France under Holocaust denial laws

Frenchman Georges Thiel, convicted in France under Holocaust denial laws

American David Duke, a former KKK leader and white supremacist

Iran Holocaust conference opens

Mr Ahmadinejad accuses Israel of trading off a "Holocaust myth". A two-day conference which says it will examine whether the Holocaust actually happened has opened in Iran. Organisers insist the event will offer a chance to discuss "questions" about the Holocaust without taboos. Several countries have condemned the conference, including Germany - where Holocaust denial is a crime.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who backs the event, has publicly questioned the scale of the Holocaust, in which six million Jews were killed. According to the Foreign Ministry in Tehran, 67 researchers from 30 countries are attending the conference in Iran, which is home to 25,000 Jews.
