Some 215 Iranian lawmakers on Monday condemned the desecration of Islamic sanctities by certain western media.
The Majlis deputies, in a statement, denounced violation of Islamic values by several Danish and Dutch media.
“We, the representatives of parliament, condemn the satanic act, and call on President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to show strong reaction to such sacrilege of Islamic sanctities and revise Iran’s political and trade cooperation with those countries,” the MPs said in their statement.
The parliamentarians also urged the Dutch and Danish governments not to let the Zionism materialize its satanic objectives in the name of honorable nations of Holland and Denmark.
Cartoons blaspheming Great Prophet Mohammad (PBUH) were first published in a Danish newspaper triggering a storm of protests by Muslims in the Middle East and Asia.
At least 50 people have been killed in anti-cartoons protests in Asia and the Middle East, three Danish embassies attacked and many Muslims have boycotted Danish goods due to the row.
