Iran's Ahmadinejad invited to visit Auschwitz
Haaretz ^ | 08/31/2006 | By Amiram Barkat

Posted on 09/01/2006 7:56:23 AM PDT by oxcart

The chairman of the Center of Organizations of Holocaust Survivors in Israel, Noach Flug, yesterday invited Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to visit Auschwitz as a guest of the International Auschwitz Committee.

Flug, himself a survivor of the camp, is one of the heads of the organization, some of whose members are non-Jewish former prisoners from Poland, Hungary, France, Great Britain and the U.S., among others.

In a letter, Flug wrote that ever since Ahmadinejad became president, "We have been closely following your appearances and racist statements and the fact that you are a serial Holocaust-denier."

Taking this pig to Auschwitz would be like taking a baseball fan to Yankee stadium.

Among other question I have about MadMood is whether his Holocaust denial is actual, or a mind game he's playing with the world.

It makes me wonder....if he is SO pathological that he really believes the Holocaust is a myth.

Flug added that he is convinced that Ahmadinejad's hatred for the Jews would decline and his desire for peace increase after hearing the testimonies of Holocaust survivors.

I don't think so. They enjoy stoning women in Iran so Holocaust stories would just give this asshat a woody.

The nut in Iran knows the truth.

Taking him there accomplishes nothing. He'll say it's nothing more than a Hollywood studio.

In the middle eastern world perception is truth. If he keeps to his opinion that the Holocaust did not happen then they'll all go with it.

There are more of them out there than you might think, especially on the Left. "Intellectual" icon Noam Chomsky wrote an introduction to a book by a famous French denier some years ago.

I was thinking that it might not be such a good idea to give the nutjob any "how to" demonstrations.

Take him for a tour of a working gas chamber.

VP Cheney should invite him on a hunting trip...just the two of them.

He'd insist it was a charming work camp, complete with a lovely swimming pool, etc. That's what all the Jewhating Holocaust deniers say.

What? We don't know where your President is, but I can assure you it isn't possible he died at Auschwitz...

If only they would. Perhaps we could take out a hit on him sans the chambers. Just like the Khatami visa, perhaps we could arrest him. Can you say, hold these thugs for ransom.

He's the one who'se been challenging Bush to a debate, to convert, etc. It's time someone challenges Ahmadinejad's statements and make HIM look bad.
