Venezuela and Iran strengthen ties mock US disapproval [1-11-2012] – Video

Posted By admin on January 26, 2012


17-01-2012 20:37 Holocaust denial is the act of denying the genocide of Jews during World War II, usually referred to as the Holocaust. The key claims of Holocaust denial are: the German Nazi government had no official policy or intention of exterminating Jews, Nazi authorities did not use extermination camps and gas chambers to mass murder Jews, and the actual number of Jews killed was significantly (typically an order of magnitude) lower than the historically accepted figure of 5 to 6 million. Holocaust deniers generally do not accept the term ‘denial’ as an appropriate description of their activities, and use the term ‘revisionism’ instead

CAIRO (AP) — Egypt banned at least 10 Americans and Europeans from leaving the country, including the son of U.S. Transportation Secretary Ray Lahood , hiking tensions with Washington over a campaign by Egypt's military against groups promoting democracy and human rights. The United States warned Thursday that the campaign raised concerns about Egypt's transition to democracy and could jeopardize American aid that Egypt's battered economy needs badly after a year of unrest.
