Science Daily and the Dallas Morning News (subscription) are running the story of the helpful Iranians. Not only do the mullahs not believe in the Holocaust, they don't believe that a silly border between Iraq and Iran should keep the Iranians from voting in the Iraqi elections:
BAGHDAD, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- Iraqi border police have seized several thousand forged ballots in a truck entering the country from Iran, but fear other loads managed to get through.

An Interior Ministry source who asked not to be identified told the New York Times the discovery was made Tuesday night by agents with the U.S.-trained border protection force at the Iraqi town of Badra, after the truck crossed at Munthirya.
Iraq will hold national parliamentary elections Thursday.
The Iranian truck driver told police that at least three other trucks filled with ballots had crossed from Iran at different spots along the border.
The US, of course, has their talking points all in a row on this issue: they hate our freedom.
At a news conference Tuesday, before the ballot seizure, the U.S. ambassador in Baghdad, Zalmay Khalilzad, spoke of what he said were overt Iranian attempts to influence events in Iraq.
"There are predatory states, the hegemonic states, with aspirations of regional hegemony in the area, such as Iran," he said. "There are states that fear success of democracy here -- that it might be infectious and spread."
Like bird flu.
Well, it is good to know that we are fighting them over there so they can vote over there. It all makes so much sense to me. Holocaust deniers are taking over.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad once again called for Israel to be moved on Wednesday. And this time, he went ahead and denied the Holocaust as well.
Yes, that's what we're fighting for. Oh and our national hero Chalabi was visiting with the Iranians before he came over for his little footsie with Bush. As it turns out, I suppose he was doing some election campaigning in Iran.
