at no point have I ever denied, questioned or ridiculed the Holocaust, it's victims, and survivors. I believe it happened. I merely put the question forth to foster debate, which some interpret as denial of the event.
Having taken your original post as a whole, I didn't believe you denied the event. However, I do fail to see the parallels that you draw between Holocaust jokes and a nation that outright denies it ever happened. Iran is not joking about the Holocaust; they deny it ever happened. That having been said, who cares about a joke? We are talking about state-approval of historical revisionism.
