Breaking News from Iran: The Holocaust Happened!

Hamid Baghaei, one of Iran’s vice presidents, according to the Iranian website Parsine.com, has said that the Holocaust happened. The catch, however, is that he says that it occurred in Iran and the victims were the Iranian people, who suffered as a result of allied violation of Iranian neutrality during World War II (when British and American forces helped secure a supply route through Iran to supply the Soviets). He is demanding that the Allies pay Iran reparations. No word on whether an apology from President Obama will be forthcoming.
