On February 19, Iran's Channel 4 covered a film seminar that included a
lecture by Professor Hasan Bolkhari. In addition to being a member of
the Film Council of Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB),
Bolkhari is a cultural advisor to the Iranian Education Ministry, and
active on behalf of interfaith issues. The following are excerpts from
Bokhari's lecture:

"There is a cartoon that children like. They like it very much, and so
do adults - Tom and Jerry. Some say that this creation by Walt Disney
[sic] will be remembered forever. The Jewish Walt Disney Company gained
international fame with this cartoon. It is still shown throughout the
world. This cartoon maintains its status because of the cute antics of
the cat and mouse - especially the mouse.

"Some say that the main reason for making this very appealing cartoon
was to erase a certain derogatory term that was prevalent in Europe.

"If you study European history, you will see who was the main power in
hoarding money and wealth, in the 19th century. In most cases, it is the
Jews. Perhaps that was one of the reasons that caused Hitler to begin
the anti-Semitic trend, and then the extensive propaganda about the
crematoria began... Some of this is true. We do not deny all of it.

"Watch Schindler's List. Every Jew was forced to wear yellow star on his
clothing. The Jews were degraded and termed 'dirty mice.' Tom and Jerry
was made in order to change the Europeans' perception of mice. One of
terms used was 'dirty mice.'

"I'd like to tell you that... It should be noted that mice are very
cunning... and dirty.

"No ethnic group or people operates in such a clandestine manner as the
Jews.

"Read the history of the Jews in Europe. This ultimately led to Hitler's
hatred and resentment. As it turns out, Hitler had behind-the-scenes
connections with the Protocols [of the Elders of Zion].

"Tom and Jerry was made in order to display the exact opposite image. If
you happen to watch this cartoon tomorrow, bear in mind the points I
have just raised, and watch it from this perspective. The mouse is very
clever and smart. Everything he does is so cute. He kicks the poor cat's
ass. Yet this cruelty does not make you despise the mouse. He looks so
nice, and he is so clever... This is exactly why some say it was meant
to erase this image of mice from the minds of European children, and to
show that the mouse is not dirty and has these traits. Unfortunately, we
have many such cases in Hollywood shows."
