Hitler is Alive and Well

May 20, 2006

From Mark Levine:

Concerned U.S. officials and Jewish groups yesterday demanded answers from Iran after a shocking report that Tehran's radical leaders passed a Nazi-style law requiring Jews and Christians to wear identifying badges. Renowned Iranian-affairs expert Amir Taheri reports that the law, approved by Iran's parliament last week, "envisages separate dress codes for religious minorities, Christians, Jews and Zoroastrians, who will have to adopt distinct color schemes to make them identifiable in public." Jews would be forced to wear yellow cloth strips – like the Star of David that Jews were made to wear in Nazi Germany – while Christians would have to wear red strips, wrote Taheri. The purpose is to protect Muslims from becoming "unclean" by accidentally shaking hands with them, he said. World leaders, human rights groups and Jewish and Christian organizations were stunned.

This Hilter wannabe is pushing his country's nuclear clock closer and closer to midnight.

  1. If this doesn’t tell the free world what needs to be done–immediately–I don’t know what it’ll take!!
    No one–on planet earth–should ever think that the Iranians–have peaceful intentions with their nuclear program!!

    Hitler fooled a lot of career diplomats before launching his troops across Europe and eventually tried to exterminate a whole race of people!!
    It cannot be allowed to happen this time around because the stakes are much higher–nuclear weapons!!


  2. Let’s wait and see what it really says before we act. From Reuters today:

    TEHRAN (Reuters) – Iran’s new dress code bill is aimed at encouraging designers to work on imaginative Islamic clothing, lawmakers said on Sunday, dismissing a report that the bill sought special outfits for religious minorities.

    Canada’s National Post on Friday reported the draft bill approved last week would force Jews, Christians and other religious minorities such as Zoroastrians to wear colour-coded clothes to distinguish them from Muslims.

    A copy of the bill obtained by Reuters contained no such references. Reuters correspondents who followed the dress code session in parliament as it was broadcast on state radio heard no discussion of proscriptions for religious minorities.

    Senior parliamentarian Mohsen Yahyavi described the Canadian report as “completely false”.

    “The bill aims to support those designers that produce clothes that are more compatible with Islam, but there will be no ban on the wearing of other designs,” he told Reuters.

    Iran’s Jewish MP Moris Motamed also agreed the bill made no attempt to force special garments on the minorities.

    “There is no single word in the bill about a special design or colour for the religious minority groups,” he said.
