While Israel, the United States and the majority of media outlets strive to portray any country that does not support Zionist crimes as anti-Semitic, Iran continues to rise to greater heights of respect and tolerance without attention to Western propaganda. "Anti-Semitism is not an eastern phenomenon, it's not an Islamic or Iranian phenomenon - anti-Semitism is a European phenomenon," says Tehran Jewish Committee director Ciamak Morsathegh, who is also a physician and the director of Dr. Sapir Hospital and Charity Center.
