Holocaust Denial and the Mullahs
(Commentary) Michael Rubin - So much for the moderation that $100 billion in sanctions relief and new investment was supposed to usher in inside Iran. The Islamic Republic News Agency has announced a new Holocaust cartoon contest. Iranian President Hassan Rouhani is no moderate. He has always been a true believer in Khomeini's ideology. He may have reduced the number of Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps veterans serving in his cabinet, but he replaced them with Ministry of Intelligence veterans, in effect, selecting a KGB cabinet.
