TEHRAN, Iran — An Iranian newspaper’s contest for Holocaust-related cartoons has drawn entries from 200 people, with some drawings mocking the World War II slaughter. One entry shows Jews going into a gas pipeline.
Most contest entrants are Iranian, but six are Americans and a few cartoons have been submitted from as far away as Indonesia and Brazil, according to the Hamshahri newspaper. A few of the drawings have been posted online.
Hamshahri began the contest last month as a test of the West’s readiness to print cartoons about the Nazi killing of 6 million Jews.
The contest, which runs through May 15, comes in response to caricatures of the Prophet Muhammad that sparked protests across much of the Muslim world.
One submission reflects the opinion of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who drew international outrage last year when he said the Holocaust was a myth.
The cartoon, by Iranian Firouzeh Mozafari, shows a circle of nine Jewish men entering and leaving a gas chamber that shows a counter reading "5,999,999," implying that Jews have inflated the number of Holocaust victims.
U.S. cartoonist Mike Flugennock’s cartoon asks: "What has Ariel Sharon learned from the Holocaust?" It shows bulldozers razing Palestinian homes and an Israeli soldier pointing a gun at a Palestinian protester’s head, above Flugennock’s answer to the question: "Humiliation, tyranny, brutality and murder."
Flugennock, of Washington, insists his entry is not anti-Semitic but legitimate political criticism because it criticizes not the Jewish people or their religion but Israeli policy toward the Palestinians.
"It specifically addresses policies of the Israeli state with regard to its behavior in Palestine, and their similarities to the strategies employed by the Nazi regime in Warsaw and elsewhere," he said in an email.
Flugennock said he saw the contest as a chance to tell the world "that there is ‘another America’ that sees through the policies of the Israeli state and isn’t afraid of reactionaries’ trying to tar them with the epithet ‘anti-Semite.’ "
Farid Mortazavi, who is managing the contest for Hamshahri, said he has received about 700 cartoons from some 200 artists.
A Web site run by contest organizers says entries have come in from 35 countries.
The newspaper is offering prizes of up to $12,000.
Some submissions, some of which were posted online, address the Palestinians’ situation rather than the Holocaust.
Er...I wasn't aware that the Danish cartoons were done by Jews.
Everybody who's not a Muslim is a Jew to them, it seems.
I'm offended! Where's the nearest embassy to burn?
Exactly. Does anybody know what time the riot starts? I don't want to be left behind...
Just burn down the offices of "CAIR" since that is the embassy of the Islamofascists in the US.
Hadn't you herd? islamites believe Jews are to blame for Denmark.
One "cartoonist", in an apparent attempt to deny the holocaust as reality, sent in a blank sheet of paper. The editors mistakenly thought it exhibited the exhuberant content of the 'toonist's character as he must have inadvertantly placed the wrong sheet in his submittal, so they threw it away. "When we looked at it, we just drew a blank", said one assistant, shrugging his shoulders. "Realizing our mistake, we later tried to secretly replace it with lined notepaper, which made the 'toonist so furious, he refuses to admit the contest exists," he declared.

No, it simply means his MIND is as blank as that piece of paper. Nothing to record from a mindless idiot!
(It was a tale of sarcasm.)

And the irony will be lost on the lamestream media when the Jews don't riot.
Think that one will win?
I can't draw worth a lick, but if you can come up with a drawing using that idea, then I will make sure it gets submitted. Just call me Mr. Fatwa.
I just returned from the far east. Met and enjoyed the company of a Danish couple. He was obviously shockrd by my reaction when after introduc Oh Cut The BullShit. All the English language papers in TRhailand and Japapan and Korea were concerned , in editorials, letters to the paper , etc with the western hypocracy about the "press freedom" which allows mockery of the "prophrt" yet Jails David Irving for a book about the holocaust. Wake UP America.
