IRAN TO SET UP HOLOCAUST "STUDIES" FOUNDATION IN BERLIN

Iran to Setup Holocaust "Studies" Foundation in BERLIN (MEMRI)
On December 14, 2006 the Iranian news agency IRNA reported, in English, that participants of the Iranian Holocaust Denial conference, dubbed 'Holocaust: A Global Vision' had announced the establishment of a "world foundation for Holocaust studies" and unanimously appointed Presidential Advisor Mohammad–Ali Ramin as its Secretary General.

Ramin told IRNA that one of the plans of the foundation is to assign a committee to find out the truth about the Holocaust, noting that its main office will be in Tehran, and that it "will eventually be transferred to Berlin, once proper grounds are prepared."

Ali Ramin was the topic of a June 15, 2006 Special Dispatch by MEMRI based on a June 9, 2006 article in the reformist online daily Rooz. According to Rooz, Ramin was quoted as saying, "...the resolution of the Holocaust issue will end in the destruction of Israel."

This is the craziest thing I have heard in a good while. The world is going insane. How dare they question the Holocaust. They do not wish to question it, their goal is to deny it ever took place, and that is too shameful for words. All I can think to say is, "How dare they" !!
