Egyptian Television Al-Faraeen Owner Defends “Protocols of Elders of Zion,” Denies Holocaust

Egyptian television station Al-Faraeen owner Tawfiq Okasha defended the anti-Jewish propaganda broadcast on Al-Faraeen in a message broadcast and translated by MEMRI.  Al-Faraeen’s Tawfiq Okasha questioned the historical fact of the Holocaust, and also defended Al-Faraeen’s broadcasts broadcasts promoting the apocryphal “Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion” as a fact that Jews had a global conspiracy to rule the world.

(The apocryphal Protocols of the Elders of Zion were promoted in Adolf Hitler’s book, Mein Kampf. Yet despite repeated proof of this apocryphal hate document as a forgery, and detailed renunciation of this by Jewish organizations in Englishas well as in Arabic – such hate continues to be globally promoted.)

In a television broadcast on January 17, 2010, Tawfiq Okasha stated that “I would like to say to the Jews: You talk about the Holocaust and about many other things. Do you have any video footage of this? Do you have any pictures of this? … Ever since I was born, I’ve been hearing about the Holocaust, but I haven’t seen any films of it. Send me films, and I will show them to public opinion, and we will be able to talk about this… There’s nothing to it.”

Tawfiq Okasha also stated: “You said that we had talked about The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, and that these protocols are humiliating to the Jews. Well, these are the documents we have. You are invited to start a dialogue with us, and deny that the Jews have anything to do with these protocols.”

According to MEMRI, “Al-Faraeen TV is broadcast by the Atlantic Bird 4A satellite, which is owned by the France-based Eutelsat company. Since 2006, Eutelsat has been partnering with Nilesat in the operation of this satellite. Atlantic Bird 4A can be received in the Middle East, North Africa, and southern Europe.”  “On December 20, 2009, Tawfiq Okasha announced on the air that Al-Faraeen TV had signed a cooperation agreement with Germany’s state TV network, to take effect January 2010.”

On January 11, 2010, the Simon Wiesenthal Center called for a “ban of Violent Extemismi Egyptian TV Al Faraeen on French Eutelsat and German ARD Network.”
