A Muslim Reaction to Ahmadinejad’s Holocaust Denial

posted by Brad Hirschfield | 12:43pm Monday October 5, 2009

Seems like today is “Ahmadinejad Day” at Beliefnet.com. With no advance planning or coordination, both City of Brass and my own column address the Iranian President and his connections to things Jewish. I encourage you to read City of Brass author Aziz Poonwalla’s post entitled Answering Ahmadinejad on The Holocaust, for a number of reasons.
For starters it calmly addressing an issue which often stirs so much rage and anger that no real analyses occurs. Secondly, even if you happen not to agree with the entire analyses, and I do not, Aziz provides a smart and sophisticated take on the problem that won’t go away. And finally, and especially, if you find yourself claiming that there are no Muslims voices which publicly decry Ahmadinejad’s grotesque denial of history, here is evidence to the contrary.

Is Realty TV Really Kosher? The Ethics Of Realty TV
I know, at first it seems that ethics and reality TV are about as connected as fire and water – one being the antidote for the other.  But perhaps it’s not as simple as that, a conclusion supported by the recent spate of articles arguing that reality TV producers need to create, and commit, to

Did you read the comments on Poonwalla’s post? Some of them are creepier than Ahmedinajad’s original statements.
