Iran Vs. Jews and Cartoons
March 30th, 2007
In the context of Passover, the upcoming Jewish holiday commemorating … well, just watch “Prince of Egypt,”… it’s important to keep in mind the modern struggles that mindless hatred perpetuate.
As this video demonstrates, Iran professors teach how “Tom and Jerry” cartoons are Disney’s way of promoting the Jewish race.
Before watching this, I’ve never been simultaneously offended as a Jew and as an animator.
But to leave you on a positive note, please enjoy this video by someone who can illustrate the beauty of Islam with ‘toons.

Just to clarify your post title, this is not “Iran” vs. Jews and cartoons. It’s one crazy Iranian vs. Jews and cartoons. It’s a disservice to the millions of sane intelligent Iranians to lump them together with this nutbag.

I second Amid’s post. I find Marjane Satrapi’s Persepolis - comic book to be a really inspiring piece of Iranian history and culture. And the artwork in it is totally cool too.

Agree with Amid. The post title not only takes away from its intended message but delivers another about its author.

Actually, Tom and Jerry was MGM.
