Obsessive anti-Semitism
By Jeff Jacoby, Globe Columnist | December 18, 2005

ONCE AGAIN, the president of Iran repeated his foul lie.

On Wednesday, in a speech broadcast live on Iranian state television,
Mahmoud Ahmadinejad told a crowd of thousands that the Nazi destruction
of European Jewry never happened. ''They have created a myth with the
name of 'Holocaust' and consider it to be above God, religion, and the
prophets," he said. It was the second time in a week that Ahmadinejad
had dismissed the most infamous genocide of the 20th century as a fairy
tale. ''Some European countries insist on saying that Hitler killed
millions of innocent Jews in furnaces," he snorted in Mecca on Dec. 8,
when he addressed an international summit of nearly 50 Muslim heads of
state. ''We don't accept this claim."

Even if there were a Holocaust, Ahmadinejad demanded, why should
Muslims be stuck living next to a Jewish state?

''If European countries claim that they have killed Jews in World War
II," he demanded, ''why don't they provide the Zionist regime with a
piece of Europe? Germany and Austria can provide . . . two or three
provinces for this regime to establish itself, and the issue will be
resolved. You offer part of Europe, and we will support it." Or, he
said, the Jews could be dispatched to the United States, Canada, ''or
Alaska."

But whether Europe and North America take his advice or not,
Ahmadinejad's bottom line doesn't change. As he put it in October,
Israel must be ''wiped off the map." And, vowed the president of the
world's foremost state sponsor of terrorism, ''a new wave in Palestine
will soon wipe off this disgraceful blot from the face of the Islamic
world."

Thus Ahmadinejad promises a second Holocaust even as he denies the
first one, and because his manner is so bellicose and crude, his words
make news. But there is nothing new about them. Iran's theocratic thugs
have been threatening the Jewish state with genocide ever since
Ayatollah Khomeini seized power in Tehran 26 years ago.

When it comes to Jews and Israel, Iran's fanatic rulers speak with one
voice. ''We have repeatedly said that this cancerous tumor of a state
should be removed from the region," Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the current
supreme leader, remarked in December 2000. Former Iranian president Ali
Akbar Hashemi Rafsanjani, whom Western journalists strangely describe
as a ''moderate," explained in 2001 how a nuclear weapon would settle
Israel's hash once and for all: ''The use of a nuclear bomb against
Israel will leave nothing on the ground, whereas it would only damage
the world of Islam." The same Rafsanjani once took to the airwaves to
explain that ''Hitler had only killed 20,000 Jews and not 6 million."
Holocaust denial and calls for a new Holocaust are two sides of the
same coin.

That coin -- virulent anti-Semitism -- circulates throughout the Muslim
Middle East, not just in Iran. Ahmadinejad's ugly outpourings were
condemned in the West, but they provoked almost no protest in Arab and
Muslim countries, where Jews are routinely portrayed as evil subhumans
fit only for extermination. In much of the Islamic world, Jew-hatred
saturates the airwaves, spills from the mosques, fills the classrooms,
permeates the press. Jews are represented as pigs and monkeys, as liars
and connivers, as vile, hook-nosed scum who deliberately infect
children with AIDS and poison Palestinian water. In their quest for
power and world domination, they are said to be ruthless and devious.
They were behind the 9/11 attacks, for example, and tipped off 4,000
Jews to stay home from the World Trade Center. And, of course, they
concocted the ''hoax" of the Holocaust, as part of an elaborate plot to
establish a beachhead in the Middle East and extort money from the
world.

Outsiders are rarely aware of how intense the Muslim world's Jew-hatred
is. ''What has surprised me is the virulence of this new anti-Semitism
throughout all the Muslim countries," the distinguished journalist and
editor Harold Evans wrote in 2002. ''It is frenzied, vociferous,
paranoid, vicious, and prolific, and is only incidentally connected to
the Palestinian conflict." Obsessive anti-Semitism almost always
characterizes the most dangerous threats to America and the West.
Nazism, Communism, Islamofascism -- all have been intensely
anti-Semitic. Which is why Ahmadinejad's strident rhetoric should be
setting off urgent alarms. Dictators who talk about wiping nations from
the face of the earth generally mean what they say. We should know by
now that it isn't only Jews who are endangered by the mullahs and their
threats. All of us are. And time is wasting.

EU leaders warn Iran it could face sanctions
They decried recent remarks denying the Holocaust. Tehran said it was
misunderstood.
By Constant Brand
Associated Press

BRUSSELS, Belgium - Iran could face sanctions if it keeps provoking
Israel and the West, European leaders warned yesterday, even as the
Tehran regime's interior minister said the Iranian president's remarks
had been misunderstood.

Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad aggravated tensions with the West
this week by calling the Holocaust a "myth," a statement that came two
months after he called for Israel to be "wiped off the map."

European leaders said Ahmadinejad's remarks were the latest
"provocative political moves" from Tehran since May.

"These comments are wholly unacceptable and have no place in civilized
political debate," said a draft statement at a European Union summit
that EU leaders were expected to adopt later yesterday.

The condemnation came as Iran prepares to resume talks Wednesday with
European envoys over its nuclear program, which the EU and United
States fear is intended to build atomic weapons. Envoys from Britain,
Germany and France are trying to get Tehran to halt uranium enrichment.

EU leaders said they were "gravely concerned at Iran's failure to build
confidence that its nuclear program is exclusively peaceful," adding
that recent decisions to resume work on enriching uranium "only add to
the EU's profound concerns about Iran's intentions."

Iran's interior minister insisted that the West misunderstood
Ahmadinejad's comments.

Ahmadinejad "wanted to say that if others harmed the Jewish community
and created problems for the Jewish community, they have to pay the
price themselves," Mostafa Pourmohammadi told the Associated Press in
Athens, Greece. "People like the Palestinian people or other nations
should not pay the price."

"A historical incident has occurred. Correct or not correct. We don't
want to launch research or carry out historical investigation about
it," Pourmohammadi said on the sidelines of a conference in the Greek
capital.

In Berlin, German lawmakers unanimously condemned the Iranian
president's remarks, calling them "completely unacceptable." Lawmakers
urged the German government to "counter any policy that disputes
Israel's right to exist and denies the Holocaust."

Denying the Holocaust is a crime in Germany, a country sensitive about
its Nazi past and the genocide that killed more than six million Jews
during World War II.

"What the Iranian president has said about the state of Israel is
completely unacceptable," Swedish Prime Minister Goran Persson said.
"He knows that he is denying the Holocaust and he is wrong... and I
condemn it."
