Reproducing American Propaganda in Rooz's Cartoons
If you wonder why the Islamic Repbulic is suspicious about a possible American-Dutch partnership to fund Iranian opposition and reproduce the American propaganda, I would ask you to just take a look at these cartoons, published in Rooz, one of the Dutch-funded media projects on Iran.
The two editorial cartoons (One, Two) have been published at the same time that the U.S. has started its big campaign to accuse Iran of meddling in Iraq's affairs and helping the sectarian violence.
"Iran's footsteps in Iraq"
"Meddling?"
Mind you that the 15 million Euros funding was proposed by Farah Karimi, a Dutch-Iranian former MP and a former member of MEK (MKO), and is now being distributed among media projects in Persian ino rder to promote to promote Human Rights and Democracy in Iran.
Disclaimer: Until a few months ago, I was the website of Rooz. But due to some financial problems I don't work with them anymore. But I never had any editorial role in what they did. However, while I had the job I was bound to an oral agreement as to not publicly critise the content of Rooz.
