Olmert: Holocaust conference is 'sick'

By HERB KEINON
Before leaving for Germany on Monday, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert called the Holocaust conference in taking place in Teheran "sick," and said "it shows the depths of the hatred of the president of the Iranian government." Olmert continued, "I think that every enlightened government needs to distance itself not only from the conference, but also from the countries that take part in it." Sources close to the prime minister also said before leaving that Olmert saw no indications that Syria was preparing for war.
