Protests against the Prophet cartoons in Kabul on 6 February (AFP)
14 February 2006 -- The chief editor of the Iranian daily "Hamshahri" today called on Danish newspapers to join its self-initiated international cartoon competition on the Holocaust.
"Hamshahri" has launched a competition for the best cartoon about the Holocaust in retaliation for Danish cartoons of the Prophet Muhammad. Those drawings have sparked angry protests among Muslims.
Mohammed-Reza Zarei said in Tehran that, as he put it, "the Danish daily which insulted our prophet," as well as other Danish dailies, "can attend our cartoon competition."
The chief editor claimed that the cartoon competition aims to seek the truth about the Holocaust.
