Iran launches Holocaust denial cartoon contest

15. They might print such a cartoon

The main thrust in the middle east is NOT that the holocaust did not occur, but why should MUSLIMS, AND ARABS, who had nothing to do with it, pay the cost of the holocaust by giving up land that has been Arabs for at least 2000 years? i.e why should the creation Israel, as a homeland for the Jews NOT be in Germany or Poland where the Holocaust occurred, but instead is in Palestine? A good cartoon would show a Frenchman and a German facing a Judge who ruled that since the French and Germans worked to kill off the Jews, the Arabs should be punished by having their land be taking away from them.

While the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei and the former President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad both have denied the holocaust, other Iranian Government officials have said it occurred.

Just a comment that such a cartoon could past in Iran. it would both acknowledge the holocaust AND point out why should Moslems and Arabs pay for what the Germans and French did (yes, I know the French did NOT run the Holocaust, but adding the French do to the assistance SOME French provided the Germans would make the cartoon more effective then just using the Germans.
