On Tuesday 25 November 2008, Mrs. Maryam Rajavi visited the Holocaust museum and memorial in
Berlin. In this visit, chairman of the Judicial Commission of the German parliament and a number of other representatives of the Federal parliament and political, religious and academic personalities accompanied Mrs. Rajavi. In contrast with the religious fascism in Iran and Ahmadinejad, Mrs. Rajavi condemned the historical crime of massacre of Jews by Hitler.

Mrs. Rajavi said: “My presence here means the Iranian people and Resistance, contrary to the religious fascism ruling Iran and Ahmadinejad, condemn the historical crime of massacre of Jews by Hitler. The reason that Ahmadinejad and the clerical dictatorship deny this historical event is because their nature is similar to the fascists and we have frequently emphasized that appeasement with that religious fascism has a threat of a world’s disastrous war like appeasement with Hitler resulted. Continuance of the mullahs’ anti-human rule and acquiring nuclear bomb by that regime is not only against the Iranian people’s freedom and sovereignty, but a threat of peace for the region and the whole world.”

Hermann-Josef` Scharf, member of German Parliament from Democrat- Christian party said: “Your visit to the monument of victims of fascism is a great and shocking moment and is an indication of democratic nature of the organized resistance of the Iranian people against religious fascism.

Referring to Mrs. Rajavi’s speech at the parliamentary session of the Bundestag, he said:” Your speech demonstrated again that the Iranian Resistance is a democratic resistance that struggles for the Iranian people’s freedom and human rights.

Hemann Josef Scharf added:” Your visit to Germany and your remarks addressing German members of Parliament was very impressive and important; and we cannot be indifferent to the pains and sufferings of the Iranian people under the rule of religious fascism. We assure you that the German MPs who have signed the statement of support for the “third option” would support wholeheartedly the Iranian people and your endeavors for Iran’s freedom and achieving democracy in Iran.”
