FoxNews quotes Fathi Shihab-Eddim as saying ‘The myth of the Holocaust is an industry that America invented’ Ynet
A key figure in Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi’s government called the Holocaust a hoax cooked up by US intelligence operatives and claimed the 6 million Jews who were killed by Nazis simply moved to the US, FoxNews reported Tuesday.
“The myth of the Holocaust is an industry that America invented,” Fathi Shihab-Eddim, a senior figure close to President Morsi was quoted as saying.
According to FoxNews, Shihab-Eddim is responsible for appointing the editors of all state-run Egyptian newspapers.
The Egyptian official was further quoted as saying that “US intelligence agencies in cooperation with their counterparts in allied nations during World War II created it (the Holocaust) to destroy the image of their opponents in Germany, and to justify war and massive destruction against military and civilian facilities of the Axis powers, and especially to hit Hiroshima and Nagasaki with the atomic bomb.”
FoxNews said that Israeli experts had expressed concern at the harsh statements. Efraim Zuroff, Israel Director of the Jerusalem-based Simon Weisenthal Center told FoxNews.com the remarks show a dangerous, but common, mindset.
“Obviously, if a person in that position makes that ridiculous claim it is of concern,” Zuroff said.
“The sad truth is that these views are relatively common in the Arab world and are the result of ignorance on one hand and of government-sponsored Holocaust denial on the other hand.”
The statement comes on the heels of the much-publicized comments made by President Morsi in 2010, that Jews are “the descendants of apes and pigs,” remarks that Morsi insists were taken out of context.

But you defending the U.S. sanction policy resulting in 1 million dead Iraqi's including over 500 thousand children dead isn't insulting?
What constitutes a Holocaust? What constitutes genocide? 1 million, 2 million, 5 million dead?
My guess is any mass murder committed by a government other than the U.S. government and is identified as an enemy of the United States.
What sanctions were those??? The UN Sanctions??? The Daddy Bush sanctions??? The Baby Bush sanctions?

YUP, your president, remember box? The leaders of the federal government you sooooo love is EVERY Americans leader. Your hero Bubba Clinton continued and fully support those baby killing sanctions. Even after it was brought to their attention that it killed over 500k babies, the Clinton Administration doubled down and didn't regret their baby killing sanctions. And I'm sure you stood by like a good red blooded American and said God Bless this USA and called everybody an anti-American who dared to point out these atrocity committed with the full support of the U.S. One million deaths is not a "Holocaust" and it's not "Genocide" when committed by the policies of the Red, White, and Blue.

Oh, the sanctions that stopped military aid to Iraq? Yes I supported them. Saddam used the deaths of Iraqi people to further his military ambitions, instead of fixing Iraq's infrastructure. It was his choice, just as it is the choice of the people like YOU Cicero to allow an infant mortality rate in the USA which is 34th in the world. Cuba, Croatia and Greece do a better job of caring for our infants than YOU in the USA Cicero... What are YOU doing about the millions of infants dying in the USA? Do you support ObamaCare that might help those infants? Do you demand that the USA does at least as well as New Zealand and South Korea? Or do you just sit by and watch America's infants die?

Jews weren't the only ones killed back then, why is it those numbers are always left out when discussing the murders committed back then.

Saddam's military never was rebuilt, it was destroyed beyond repair after the war.

Come on, the Jewish Holocaust was real, while the Iraqi holocaust is a genuine hoax.
In defense of the Nazis(always a crowd pleaser) when you are losing a war, feeding the prisoners is not a priority.
Killing them because it costs too much to feed them is called euthanasia.
We do it to unwanted cats and dogs every day. Do we call it a pet holocaust?
What are you gonna spend the money on weapons to fight the war, or food for the prisoners.
The Iraqi holocaust was a completely different story.
They starved from the sanctions due to their own fault? For not overthrowing there government, I'm guessing?
Iraqis that were killed weren't even prisoners. They never even committed any crime against the US. The US invaded their homeland and we killed anyone who dared to defend himself. Uniforms, civilians, women and children. Out of our way, we got us a mission to complete.
But all we really had was a warrant to get the WMDs.
In Box's defense, the Iraqis made us kill them by not getting out of the way of our bombs, guns and tanks.
