*Clip # 1005 - Iranian Political Analyst Dr. Majid Goudarzi Says the Jews
Committed Genocide against the Iranians, Described in the Book of Esther
1/4/06

Dr. Majid Goudarzi: He [white supremacist Paul Fromm] said something very
interesting: "In Europe you can deny the existence of God, but you cannot
deny the Holocaust." I read in the Italian constitution that the fine for
blasphemy is around three dollars, but if someone in France denies the
Holocaust he is fined at least 3,000 francs. In addition, he is silenced and
is fired from his job. [...] In 23 days, the Jews will mark the Holocaust
celebrations. This will be on January 27. They have this celebration. They
claim that there were attempts to commit genocide against them. But I refer
to the Bible itself: The Book of Esther, Chapter 9. They themselves say
there was a woman named Esther, who was brought into the court of Xerxes, by
a man called Mordechai the Jew. She was incited into killing around 170,000
Iranians. She killed many people in what is known today as the city of Susa.
They celebrate this every year. They hold a two-day annual celebration of
the killing of Iranians, a
celebration of the genocide against the Iranians. 23-24 centuries ago,
170,000 constituted the population of an entire country. They were the ones
who wanted to annihilate an entire country's population. They are the ones
who commit genocides - not us.
