Holocaust Conference
Iran which we are led to believe supports terrorists is hosting a conference on the alleged holocaust. Nevertheless this could be a good thing and should certainly take place depending on who attends the conference. It must be an in depth
research into the extent of the atrocities and who was responsible for them.
Many photos of bodies and emancipated people were shown at the end of the war but it was left to the imagination that these particular humans were the result of
a systematic brutalising when in fact at the end of the war people living under inhumane and disease ridden conditions were left to starve. Unlike the Japanese prisoners who were starved and ill treated over a long period.
Make no mistake about it atrocities certainly occurred. What happened should not be covered up with lies. The findings of a number of researchers should be allowed to be brought together to ascertain how many
murders actually took place and who was responsible.
The conference to be genuine must include all races who perished
in prison camps and not be a propaganda
campaign for or against the Jews and anybody who might now be profiting from any lie be brought before an international court to please explain.
If this is done in an unbiassed manner maybe then the matter could be laid to rest.

TEHRAN ˜ Iran, which disputes that Jews were slaughtered by the Nazis, is to hold a conference next month to allow historians to clarify "hidden angles" of the Holocaust, the foreign ministry has revealed.
The December 11 and 12 international gathering aims to "create opportunities ...
for a suitable scientific research so the hidden and unhidden angles of this most important political issue of the 20th century become more transparent," said a statement on the Iranian foreign ministry's website.
Iran's fiercely anti-Israeli regime is supportive of so-called Holocaust revisionists, who maintain that the systematic slaughter by the Nazis of mainland Europe's Jews and other groups during World War II
was either invented or exaggerated.
The event is organized by the ministry's Institute for Political and nternational Studies (IPIS) which has called on researchers and lecturers to take part in the conference.
The gathering, titled "Study of Holocaust: A Global Perspective", has been scheduled to coincide with international Human Rights Day on December 10, it said. "This conference fully respects the Jewish religion and is away from politicization and propaganda," the
statement said.
Topics include "anti-Semitism, Nazism and Zionism; the concept of Holocaust and its roots; views of revisionists; denial or admittance of gas chambers," it added.
"The laws against those who deny Holocaust and killing of the Palestinians," are also to be discussed.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has prompted international anger by dismissing the Holocaust as a "myth" used to justify the creation of Israel.
In mid-August, Tehran staged an international contest of cartoons on the Holocaust, in response to the publication in Western papers last September of controversial caricatures of the Prophet Mohammed.
