| 'Merkel=Hitler' say demonstrators in Tehran |
| 2006-02-17 |
 Some fifty members of the Iranian students' movement DTV held a peaceful protest demonstration at the German embassy in Tehran against the cartoons of the Muslim Prophet Mohammed and against a cartoon of the Iranian national football team. The students, including women, carried banners such as "Merkel = Hitler", "No insults to our sanctities", "Any insults of the Iranian national football team will lead to closure of the German embassy" and "Nuclear technology is the undeniable right of Iran." |

| #4 Merkel = Hitler You can almost visualize Der FÃœHRER shouting these statements from the podium. "It is important to heighten the society's awareness of the meaning of anti-Semitism, which means the hatred of mankind" Angela Merkel 2005 "Regardless of all faith in the freedom of the press, I can understand that religious feelings, especially of Muslims, have been hurt" Angela Merkel 2006 |

| #3 They really have to hire some better slogan writers. Or does Farsi simply not translate well? |

| #2 All this should make for an interesting World Cup in Germany in June. I hope they get spanked in the first round, although I hear a lot of young anti-regime types love soccer so a successful team might give a boost to anti-Mullah demonstrations. But then again, a disaster could be blamed on Ahmadinejad and the fundamentalists for being anti-soccer, anti-western sticks in the mud. They will pine for the days of '98 when they were moving toward reform and freedom and beat the U.S. in France. |
