The Obama Administration worked to release hundreds of billions of dollars to the Iranian regime.

It bought into a nuclear “deal” that at best temporarily delays the inevitable, an Iran with military-grade nuclear capabilities.

Earlier this month, its Navy held 10 U.S. sailors prisoner when their disabled boat drifted into Iranian territorial waters. Iran made sure the world saw the images of American soldiers with their hands held behind their heads.

Now we read of Iran and the U.S. opening commercial air traffic between the two nations.

So the Obama White House’s new BFF is getting ready to hold a cartoon contest of caricatures denying the Holocaust.

We’re happy to see that even UNESCO, no great friend of Israel, has seen fit to file a complaint with the Iranian government over its despicable intent.

It’s perhaps notable that it’s not the United States filing the complaint about the Holocaust-denier-state Iran.

World Jewry, instead, relies on UNESCO director-general Irina Bokova to bring the issue to the attention of Iranian President Hassan Rohani, who was scheduled to address the organization’s staff on Wednesday, January 27, which, by the way, was International Holocaust Remembrance Day.

But that’s OK. The U.S. and other nations have given Iran access to funds that we can only pray won’t underwrite an exacerbation of terror against the West and Israel. Political leaders seem to go out of their way to make this world a more dangerous place.

So we’ve given them the money, lifted the embargo and soon commercial air travel to the U.S. So what does Iran do in return? It makes a joke of the Holocaust.

This is the nation that President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry are going out of their way to humor.

But a Holocaust cartoon contest? Really?

Mr. President and Mr. Secretary of State: There’s nothing humorous here.

Perhaps Mr. Rohani needs to hear that from you both, not just from the leader of UNESCO.
