Global denial?

Holocaust denial? In Germany? Say it's not true! According to the following report linked by David Kaspar, not only is it true, but Chancellor Schroeder is rolling out the red carpet for Holocaust deniers:

Would the German Chancellor Schroeder show himself in public with a Holocaust-Denier like David Irving? Would he seek a dialogue with him?

Last Tuesday has proven that he has at least not that great fear of contact with these kind of people.

After Chancellor Schoeder held a speech at the opening event of this year Book Fair in Frankfurt, the notorious Mohammad Salmawy delivered a greeting message of Nobelprice Winner Nagib Machfus, who was not able to visit the Book Fair. This year’s guest of honour at the book fair is the Arab League. In advance a variety of Right’s organization expressed their outrage about the fact, that the Fair was planned together with the Arab League, representing Governments in the Arab World, who are all accused of a wide range abuse of Human Rights, promotion of anti-Semitic publications and even Terrorist activities.

Since years it is well known, that Mohammed Salmawy, editor of the French magazine Al Ahram Hebdo, publicly denies the Holocaust and praises Suicide Bombers in Israel. Al Ahram Hebdo is property of the Egyptian government.

He wrote in that magazine: “There are no findings to indicate the existence of mass graves, because the size of the ovens makes it impossible for many Jews to have been killed there. According to the lists presented by the Soviets to the Germans, no more than 70,000 Jews were registered as having been at Auschwitz." (emphasis added)...

In an interview with the BBC Salmawy also said, “that the Israeli Mossad was behind the September 11, 2001 attacks in the US, despite the evidence claiming otherwise.” ...

That's just great. Meanwhile, the European Union is in bed with the PLO, and is busily turning Israel into a pariah state.

Is there an emerging new global anti-Semitism?

How will we ever pass the "global test?"

The "global test": the more you stink, the more they like you.

"Right's organizations"? Rightists in Germany oppose anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial? The wording there is rather ambiguous, but read one way at least, it shows the enormous spectrumological shift over the last 50 years. Anti-Semitism has largely shifted to the Port side of many spectrums. Or, a large portion of the Left has joined with a long-enduring tendency on certain segments of the Right. This shows once again that we need a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional spectrum.
