「エジプトのイスラム協会リーダー、ホロコーストはでっちあげと発言」
12月22日付、イスラエルの電子版「Haaretz」より。
[カイロ発、ロイター] エジプトのイスラム協会代表であり、議会における反対勢力の中心的人物が、イラン大統領の「ホロコーストはでっちあげ」との発言に対し、支持の声を上げた。
「西洋の”民主主義”とやらは、シオンの息子達のビジョンに賛同しない者に対して、容赦なき攻撃を加えてきた。ホロコーストのでっち上げに関しても、同様である」
モハメッド・マーディ・アキフ（Mohamed Mahdi Akef）は、声明文の中でこのような声明を行った。
アキフは、その証拠として、1998年、ホロコーストに対して疑問を呈したフランス人ライター、ロジャー・ギャロウディー（Roger Garoudy）に有罪宣告をしたことと、来月、オーストリアで同様の罪に問われそうなイギリス人歴史家、デイビッド・アービング（David Irving）の例を挙げた。
イラン大統領が12月14日に行った「ホロコーストは作り話」との発言は国際的にも波紋を広げているが、今回のアキフの声明文は、これを支持するためのものだ。
ナチ・ウォッチドッグ的グループのイスラエル支部ディレクターは、「このようなホロコースト否定論がアラブ世界で吹き荒れているとは、全くもって言語同断である」といっている。
アキフは、11月と12月の選挙で454議席中88議席を獲得したグループのリーダーだが、彼は中近東に民主主義を推進しているアメリカのことを、「アメリカの攻撃」と断定している人物だ。
彼は、アメリカが中近東で行っているキャンペーンは、自分たち自身のこの地域における興味とシオニストの運動を促進するために行っているだけなのだといっている。

Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood leader calls Holocaust a myth
By Reuters
CAIRO - The head of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, the main opposition force in parliament, echoed Iran's president on Thursday in describing the Holocaust as a myth.
"Western democracy has attacked everyone who does not share the vision of the sons of Zion as far as the myth of the Holocaust is concerned," Mohamed Mahdi Akef said in a statement.
Akef cited as evidence of Western intolerance the cases of French writer Roger Garoudy, who was convicted in France in 1998 of questioning the Holocaust, and British historian David Irving, who faces similar charges in Austria next month.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sparked an international uproar when he said in a Dec. 14 speech that the Holocaust was a myth.
In Israel, the director of the Israeli branch of the Nazi watchdog group, the Simon Wiesenthal Center, warned that, ""There's no question that a very ugly wave of Holocaust denial is sweeping the Arab world."
"The problem is that so far in the Arab world very few leaders are willing to tell their own people that they have to understand that the Holocaust did take place," Efraim Zuroff said.
Akef, whose group won 88 of the Egyptian parliament's 454 seats in elections in November and December, made his comment in an attack on the United States' assertion that it is promoting democracy in the Middle East.
He said the U.S. campaign was a cover for promoting its own interests and those of the Zionist movement in the region.
"American democracy ... steers the world into the American orbit delineated by the sons of Zion, so that everyone must wear the Stars and Stripes hat and keep away from the Zionist foster child," he wrote in his weekly statement.
He accused the U.S. House of Representatives of hypocrisy when it threatened to cut off aid to the Palestinian Authority if the Islamist movement Hamas takes part in January elections.
He also criticised European Union foreign policy chief Javier Solana for saying that Europeans might think twice about aid to the Palestinians if Hamas members were in parliament.
Hamas says it is an extension of Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood, which was founded in 1928 and which renounced political violence inside Egypt decades ago. Hamas believes in armed struggle to replace Israel with an Islamic state.
Last week the deputy leader of the Brotherhood, Mohamed Habib, asked about Ahmadinejad's denial of the Holocaust, said reports of Nazi attempts to wipe out European Jews might have been exaggerated.
"We don't have confirmed things to enable us to prove this matter or refute it. It needs documentation but what one can be sure of is that there were attacks on the Jews but not by means of gas chambers or perhaps not in these numbers or on this scale," Habib told Reuters in an interview.
But Habib said the debate was irrelevant to the situation of the Palestinians. "What the Jews propagate about there being a Holocaust has nothing to do with the way they treat the Palestinians on the land of Palestine," he said.
