Come Again?

Now, I'm fully aware that translating the same thing over and over again, namely "god is great all pigs and joos are dirty kill infidels for virgins lululululu", is at times difficult to decipher into ANY other language, and that interpreters must have some leeway.

But saying that there was no holocaust and that the Jews should be wiped off the face of the earth, does NOT then translate to the following:

CNN.com - Iran plans Holocaust conference - Jan 15, 2006

"It is a strange world. It is possible to discuss everything except the Holocaust," (Iranian)Foreign Ministry spokesman Hamid Reza Asefi told reporters."

No, Hamid. An open discussion of the facts is what modern, meaning non-barbarians who do not kill their women and children for showing an ankle, or lopping off a strangers head for believing in another deity, modern people strive for. It's reaching the point whereby even the Iranians need their own language interpreted for them and just imagine an Iran without oil. Disease. Hopelessness. Blood running in the streets as starving populations fight amongst themselves for whatever scraps the world throws their way.

Think New Orleans with lots of sand.
