Winner Iranian cartoon contest

The winner of the Iranian anti-cartoon cartoon contest is the Moroccan artist Derkaoui Abdellah. The winning cartoon shows depicts the construction of the wall build by Israel, in front of the As-Aqsa mosque. The wall itself depicts an image of the concentration camp Auschwitz.

It is noticeable that the winning cartoon is less confrontational than most other cartoons in the contest. Neither does it explicitly reiterate the claim that the holocaust is a myth, nor does it suggest a Zionist conspiracy to deceive the UN and the international community. The winning cartoon suggests instead, that the holocaust is instrumental in the occupation of Palestine, but leaves room for interpretation.
