Radio Free Europe helped to promote the 'World Without Zionism" and "World Without America" Conference. They posted the info on their web site:
THEMATIC ART CONTEST TO TAKE PLACE IN IRAN Iran's House of Cartoons and the Union of Islamic Students Associations are sponsoring an "A World Without Zionism" art competition in Tehran, IRNA reported on 19 October. The main themes of the competition are: "A World Without America," "A Mirage Named Zionism," "The Wishes Of A Palestinian Student," and "The Intifada." The contest is open to students aged seven-18, and they have until 21 November to send their submissions to info@zionot.ir. BS
And I thought Canadians were becoming a self destructive lot. American beats us again. But for the love of that is good and holy don’t tell Jack Layton or the NDP.
On another note, “Canada Chides Iran” screams the headline above this story at the Globe and Mail:
Ottawa — Prime Minister Paul Martin is condemning an anti-Israeli diatribe from Iran's President as a racist relic from a past age. The federal government also called in Iran's top diplomat in Canada for a formal reprimand. The Prime Minister was asked about President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's declaration that Israel should be wiped off the earth.
“It's beyond the pale. It's absolutely incredible,” Mr. Martin said Thursday. “That kind of lack of respect, intolerance, anti-Semitism — this is the 21st century and that statement is just out of an era that is long past and never should have occurred.”
I really think Paul Martin needs to go out more or at least read blogs if he really thinks the Iranian President’s remarks are out of a by-gone era of long, long ago. I just bet that the Iranians are shaking in their boots now that Mr. Dithers raked their ambassador over the coals - just like they did when the Canadian government called the Iranian government to account for the beating death of Canadian journalist Kamezi. By the way, just how strong are the wheat sales with Iran going?
