An exhibition in Iran will mock the Holocaust

2. Sadly, the exhibition proves its point, but in a way the West will never admit.

The point of the contest is to show the West that we have limits to Free Speech, that all of our claims that Muslims should not get upset about cartoons are hypocritical, because we have our own taboos, and we get upset the moment cartoons cross the lines we draw. It's just more white/western supremacy, where we believe our interpretation is the only valid one, and can't believe other people are so stupid as to not get it.

The WP article--we'll have to see if this thread follows--demonstrates very clearly that the organizers hit the nail on the head. Westerners will say "But this is different, this is... (fill in whatever difference you see). We are clearly right and they are clearly wrong!" That reaction is the proof the organizers hope for. Problem is, the topic is too taboo for Westerners to see it objectively enough to understand the point.

On edit: Just to be clear, I'm in no way arguing the contest or its Holocaust-denying views have any validity. I'm only saying that they have successfully found a topic we consider so taboo that we curtail our sacred concept of Free Speech over.
